So Much Better Than I Used to Be
discussion questions: 1. How has John K. Samson remained so skinny? 2. Has there ever been a better rock band? 3. What kind of drums does Jason Tait play? Because they sound amazing. 4. Please write a 500 word essay on the relationship between the Weakerthans and their hometown, Winnipeg, Manitoba. 5. Can you believe that the singer in this band used to be in Propagandhi?
Extra Credit: Have you heard the three new Weakerthans songs that debuted on their recent tour?
1. He was a chain smoker and a vegan for a number of years.
5. I was a Propagandhi fan before I was a Weakerthans fan, and actually it took me years to listen to the Weakerthans 'cause I was of the opinion that John K. sold out. When I found out that the Weakerthans kept the same politics (although they've been watering them down lately) it made it easier for me to digest.
Incidentally, I'd just like to state that I'm envious of John K.'s body.
