A gig they could sink their teeth into


Finally Private Sector played a show that was more a welcome home than a WTF are we doing here. After a disastrous start to their 2009 tour under unusual circumstances at Pottahawk, Blind River and Thunder Bay, Sector hit their stride with shows in Sioux Lookout- a former stronghold.

Years apart and miles between made no difference as the band lost none of their popularity, or potency and sold out both shows while adding a third Monday night.

Sector drummer Bug Christopher summed it up by saying, "If only they didn't keep the rubbing alcohol behind the counter, I'd move here permanently."

The band was even treated to a good old fashion dust-up in the parking lot afterward as two locals beat the hell out of each other. "It brings a tear to the eye," said bassist Donald Barley.

Private Sector play Dryden on Thursday.
