Discussion: The Weakerthans

Very nice to listen to, wonderful voice, AMAZING lyrics!!!!!! John K Samson rocks!!!!!!This band from Winnipeg, Manitoba makes me so proud to be Canadian! :D Their new album is very good, but my favorite is Left and Leaving. My favorite song is called "Elegy for Elsabet".

Anyone know when I can see the WEAKERTHANS in or near Vancouver (Surrey)? I mean, I met John P. Sutton, the bassist at the Juno Cup in Edmonton this past weekend .... and man oh man, would I ever love to meet him again. I think he was just hillarious to talk to. Very easy going, very sweet .... and might I add ..... EXTREMELY GORGEOUS !!!! So besides the fact he asked me to MARRY HIM, which was obvious NOT serious, .... ALTHOUGH I WISH IT WERE ... or maybe he was (LOL) I wouldn't mind hearing them play sometime in BC.

If you know anything about when they might be playing here ... please email me at

If anyone knows The Weakerthans personally ... let me know because I would like to meet them again as well, so maybe you could pass this message along to them.

Thanks
AMANDA

Any thoughts on the lyrics from 'A plea from a cat named Virtute'? In particular the section

"Ask the things you shouldn't miss/tape hiss and the modern man/cold war and card catalogues/to come and join us if they can'

Glad I found this website. I can tell that I will waste err.. expend a lot of time here.
