Since Dallas passed, I have seen the band with Kurt Vile at the Winnipeg Folk Fest, and then a few weeks ago at a club here in Winnipeg. It is very sad to not have Dallas with us, but I will support the Sadies anywhere and any time in the future. They still kick ass.

going to miss this band forever. Or at least until I die. I was fortunate to see these boys play many many times, but one of my favourite memories is one of the last times I saw them play. They played a free show at the Alberta Legislature one perfect afternoon and I couldn't believe my good luck. I rode my bicycle down and found a nice spot at the back under some bushes and got to hear my favourite band play lazing on my back under a clear blue sky. Thanks for all the music Dallas, we all will miss you very much.

Yep. I saw them do a two set Halloween show where they played Sadie’s stuff the first set and a whole Alice Cooper about the second. And Astronomy Dominae was a regular. Saw them do that with Robin Hitchcock. The greatest. It’s just such a loss.

Good by name, good in real life. I first saw them around 20 years or so ago at the Lakeside Lounge on Avenue B in New York, as backing band for Andre Williams. I got talking to them briefly, and they were seriously nice guys. A year or more later, I found myself booked to DJ their show at the 100 Club in London (England), and they remembered me. At a later date here I was the DJ again and Dallas gave me a shout out, a thank you, on the mic in the middle of the show. Great band, always good to see them, and a heck of a nice bunch of guys too. All of them.

Love The Sadies! Discovered them from 'Favorite Colors from 2003-2004 ? And Stories often Told" from a couple of years before. I loved it and related to the music. instantly, and yes, the fantastic guitar work and arrangements drew me in, right away ! Nice Memorial Mazzy, for a very important band that most don't know about..

There is an amazing album of classic country music covers by John Doe and the Sadies called “Country Club” that I would highly recommend to anyone interested in that genre. A vinyl copy has eluded me to date (price-wise and/or geographically), but I stream it at work all the time! Thanks for the post Mazzy. Sad news for sure.

John Doe and Exene Cervenka were the opening band for Garbage and Blondie back in 2018. I ran into John Doe in an elevator at the venue and told him how amazing the Country Club album is. He seemed genuinely surprised to have someone tell him that. He called the Sadies some the best musicians he'd ever had the pleasure to work with. I believe him.

I had the privilege of seeing the Sadies here in Los Angeles, around 5 years ago and always hoped for their return. Amazing band, and yes Dallas is irreplaceable. Accidently found out about this band through Pandora while listening to some cool surf music and rockabilly and immediately started ordering majority of their albums on cd and vinyl. I rarely do that with a band. Proud to be a fan of them.
@MuskieMcKay2 жыл бұрын
He was quite young. I've seen them a couple times, including opening for Blue Rodeo, they often supported bigger acts. But they were at their best headlining some small low ceiling club. I think I saw them the day Dennis Hopper died and they played a Byrds song, I was trying to think which one, now I think it was "Wasn't born to follow" but their signature bit and another Seattle band also did it was fretting each other's guitar, I think covers are almost what they were known for live, "Freeborn Man" being another highpoint of that same set.

Great video Mazzy. I had the privilege of knowing Dallas in the early 90s. He worked at Songbird Music on Queen West in Toronto. He played in a great band The Satanatras. Great band. Great name. I remember he would always play that riff to Caught In A Dream from Love It To Death at the Satanatras shows. Much to the displeasure of the other guitar player Jeff. Just a funny thing I remember. Anyway he sold me a 78 Les Paul Custom(long gone now). My first “good” guitar. I think I paid under 900 Canadian at the time of you can even imagine. The world is a little bit worse off than it was a day or 2 ago. Dallas is going UP. Of that you can be sure.

Man, this really broke my heart. One of the best bands on the planet, especially live. I saw them many times. I saw them after Dallas died and the show was amazing. Felt like a wake but super high energy passionate show. All I could say was “that’s the second best live act I’ve ever seen.” Someone looked at me angrily and asked who’s the best. I said “the Sadie’s with Dallas.” We both teared up, two total strangers. I’m tearing up just thinking about it. Even worse, I was thinking “what could they possibly do now?” He was irreplaceable. The Goode brothers were a unit. I thought maybe Dex Romweber? The only guy who could match them for live energy and awesomeness. That could be fun. Then Dex died. Jesus. Bad year.

Such an amazing band... although certainly not the same without Dallas, without that Telecaster dueling with the Gretsch, and without that baritone vocal... but I hope the band carries on. Maybe they could convince John Doe / Neko Case / Kurt Vile to throw a tour together - sort of a celebration of what they have done. I'd also love another John Doe and the Sadies collaboration (although JD has his own solo stuff on the way already)
