We love Sloan. Their latest album, The Double Cross, proves that the band, twenty years into their career, is showing no signs of slowing down. The only thing that excites us more than their records, though, is their live show. The quartet from Halifax is truly impressive as they display their indelible pop smarts and arena-sized rawk-n-roll abandon amidst a flurry of instrument switching onstage. Their concerts are truly joyous events, filled with dancing, hand clapping, fist pumping and a couple gallons of sweat.

Their U.S. tours have grown increasingly rare so don't miss your chance to see them at Subterranean tomorrow night. In fact we are SO excited about the band coming through town we're giving away a pair of tickets to one lucky Chicagoist reader! So hurry up and enter before 5 p.m. for your chance to win!
