Someone tell me what to think of the new promo photos for the Sam Roberts Band.
The dudes are so clean cut these days… which kinda makes sense. Sam is in his mid-thirties now, and the scruffy, unshaven, denim suit vibe which made sense in 2002 doesn’t now.
The biggest shave-induced appearance change is Dave, the lead guitarist (second from the right). True story: I drank with the guy at a Stampede after-party about 5 years ago in Calgary. Dude looked like one part Jesus and one part auto mechanic. He now looks like someone I might work with at my corporate day job. I’m not dissing the dude, I’m just saying.
