Big Sugar - Gone For Good

[TheRaysSixString]

I LOVE IT!!! There will always be a warm place in my heart for Canadian rock bands. God, I love the 90s!

Gotta Love Big Sugar :)

Each concert in Cleveland was better attended then the previous show Gordie said from the stage. The Grog Shop may have been their first time in town, I missed it as I never heard of them. I remember the great gig at Wilbert's up the hill from the east bank of the Flats (not the current Wilbert's location). Also one at Peabodys old location on the east bank. I believe that I saw a third concert at a bar somewhere in Cleveland, but memory escapes me.

these guys are in my town tonight woot woot

[melian9999]

i was at the show that they shot the footage for this video...yippee for me, I don't really like this song much, but i'm huge big sugar fan saw them many times, this was an awesome show at the Warehouse in T.O. I met Gordie a couple times, real nice guy.

[joesush]

Big Sugar rocked in Cleveland, Ohio several times......what a guitarist Gordie was and is!

[ChizelMonkee]

@joesush No doubt. WHere did you see them? I saw them once at The Grog Shop and once at Peabody's DU. I think the Grog show had like 10 of us in attendance. It was like a personal show! Nonetheless, they were incredible!

[xXDarkflowerXx]

seen these guys as big sugar, accoustic sets and as Grady like 7 times. Believe me when I say Gordie and Chill are class acts all the way.

[Donry]

These guys rocked.  Gordie! Get this band back together dude!

[reanimate280]

these guys were off the fucking charts on the cool-o-meter......no one could touch em

[SCROGY]

You should check out Morphine. Start with "A Good Woman Is Hard To Find". Their "hipness" is very much like Big Sugar. Just a laid back style.....I think Gordie and Mark Sandman would have chilled well together.

this might sound weird, but this song kinda reminds me of the foo fighters mixed with a really grungey, pre-nevermind nirvana sound. with its own little twist as well

[ernie750]

Sounds like the Who with a large dose of delta blues...

[kkkthere]

sounds like good canadian music..

[angusandleigh]

@kkkthere good loud Canadian music... Big Sugar was always meant to played with the volume knob twisted all the way around ;)

[hotdoggravy]

@kkkthere Canadian or not, its great music !

[SCROGY]

Big Sugar kinda had their own sound. You can hear so many things in it. There is the Zep influence, delta blues, a little punk and Grunge........original sounding band for sure. They should have been much bigger than they were. Fame was well deserved for these guys, but they should have been MEGA stars.

[william4art]

is some one actually comparing big sugar to a flash in the pants one song band like big wreck...WOW!!!! no comparison

[samuelji1701]

I think you mean flash in the pan, but whatever man, either works... on different levels.

[wattienz]

Yes Big Sugar were a great band, but arent we forgetting about Frank Marino Mahogany Rush/Rush/Wild T and the Spirit/Walter Rossi/Triumph and even Big Wreck to name a few

[rockyourworld1967]

Anyone Canadian who puts us on the map rocks! We work way harder in an unforgiving music scene!!!! Just a different generation. Don't forget Frank Soda, Foghat, Domenic Troiano, Pat Travers, Moxy, BTO, Robbie Robertson, 5 Man Electrical Band, Ian Thomas, Matt Minglewood, and what's that guy's name? Oh yeah, Neil Young! lol

[JordanTVeale]

The Tea Party and Big Sugar...Jeff Martin and Gordie Johnson are Canada's best and most talented guitarists and writers by far!

[valentin80]

You can say that again... The Tea Party and Big Sugar are the most important bands from Canada.

[krinkles3productions]

NO alex lifeson is wayyyy better

[rostones]

Big Sugar was truly the best live band in Canada and the loudest !!!

[rockyourworld1967]

Big Sugar was always loud. Loved it! I remember one time Jeff Healey followed them at Cayuga, and was way louder! So insanely loud I almost left! Nah, but I paid for it! Hahaha

[rockyourworld1967]

I think that year was a volume competition! Jeff Healey, David Wilcox, Wide Mouth Mason, Sass Jordan, Kim Mitchell, April Wine and Big Sugar were all cranked! The most deaf I've ever been after a music festival! The only louder show, was Motorhead at the Music Hall at 10,000 Watts!

[tambourini]

@rockyourworld1967 They were the loudest. Not to be compared, but even louder than Iron Maiden :) The bass shook my arm hairs!
