Sound Check Entertainment was the only media outlet on site to cover 54-40 perform at the Big Four Roadhouse during the Calgary Stampede!

Canada’s own “Godfathers of Rock” – 54-40 – have been around for almost 40 years and over 20 albums … one thing Neil Osbourne has learned is time is precious … and at the end of the show he thanked the crowd for giving them over 90 minutes of their lives to spend with them. That was about as mellow and melancholy as you got the entire night.

The biggest hit song is “I Go Blind”. More than one person commented on covering Hootie and the Blowfish but the hardcore fans explained that it was Hootie that covered 54-40!

They ended the show with an amazing mashup of “Personal Jesus” and “Love You All”
