Happy Boring Life / Minnesota Girls / McMurdo / My Best Friend’s Girl / Genevieve / Hearts of Gold / The Cartographer / Automatic / Exactly What It Looks Like / King Geoff / St. This was a fitting finish since Colin claims his guitar influences start with Pete Townshend. Running short on time, the band decided to close with a shorter cover tune that originally planned, going with The Who’s “I Can’t Explain”. Before they were done, they also played one of my favorites from their Second Attempt EP, “St. The brothers grew up playing the Blues and showed off this side of themselves on their cover of “Automatic”.

We also heard their recent screamer, “Genevieve”, plus a bunch of their new songs like “Hearts of Gold”, “The Cartographer”(my name for it), “Exactly What It Looks Like”, and “King Geoff”. Tonight, they pulled out “My Best Friend’s Girl” and got the crowd singing along. On Halloween night the band was here at the Entry (with Last Import and the Gully Boys) and played a cool set of only The Cars covers. Plus, their other newer song about a cold place, “McMurdo”. Those boring friends missed “Minnesota Girls”, the Shacks popular argument to the Eagles that also celebrates our toe-numbing 30-below temps that will soon be here. The Shacks kicked off their opening set with their most recent single, “Happy Boring Life”, whose lyrics admit, “I’ve got the last part down.” We all probably have friends who have that part down and stayed home tonight. Thankfully, nearly everyone found a way to make it through the sloppy roads to fill the Entry in time for the 9pm start. So, go ahead and blame the weekend’s crappy weather on the boys.
Like Ernest Shackleton’s vessel, “The Endurance”, the brothers’ van by the same name, was shipwrecked on a road trip this year, and left to Cars For Kids in Sturgis, SD. Also, because it seemed like every night they had a show there was a snowstorm. The trio chose their band name because it sounds cool, of course. The Shackletons are comprised of three young Campbell brothers (Colin, Cameron, and Evan) who have bonded with Gabe Douglas and The 4OTF, opening for many of their shows in the past year. It did not include Koo Koo Kanga Roo, who needed to spend Stomps Eve with the other side of their family (their own show at the Cedar Friday). If not, keep reading to find out what you missed.įriday’s Stompsgiving Eve was of course a bit more informal and held at the smaller, 200-person capacity 7th Street Entry. Of course, they also invited you and provided that nice two-night package deal. Now any great holiday is spent with your family and friends and The 4OTF made sure to invite their friends and recent tourmates, The Shackletons and Koo Koo Kanga Roo. Did you attend Friday night’s Stompsgiving Eve festivities at the 7th Street Entry? Or at least make it for Stompsgiving Day at the Turf Club on Saturday night? If you did, you now might rank it just behind Christmas (sorry, no fat guy in a red suit delivers presents to you), but higher than Thanksgiving (same old, same old).
It was a new occasion created by The 4onthefloor (4OTF) to help you fill that “there’s nothing to do” void you may have feared in the days following Thanksgiving.
Where does Stompsgiving rank in your list of favorite holidays? Not sure? That’s ok.
