Sled Island

What do you get when you throw 25 of Calgary's best loved musicians in a room, force them to draw names from a hat to form entirely new bands on the spot and charge them with the task of writing and performing material that's less than 12 hours old? If the last time we did it is any indication - an unforgettable and mind-melting night! It's time for the Sled Island Rock Lottery #2! On Saturday, September 7th at the Palomino, we're doing it again in the name of raising funds for the festival. Featuring members of Fist City, Cowpuncher, Seahorse, Feel Alright, The Pygmies, The Slabs, The Weir and many, many, many more, it'll be a weird and wonderful one-off night.
