Instead of scrolling somewhere else this morning, I spent the morning being nostalgic and watching Doug and the Slugs videos, and now I have Day by Day stuck in my head.

Music from my childhood, makes me think of my mum and dad.

Thought I’d share here for fun!

    RIP Doug, but the band is playing at the PNE this year.

      I saw the regrouped band about six years ago. I miss Doug, but the new singer did a decent job.

        I don’t think so, the whole reason I was being nostalgic about them the other day, was because I saw that they were playing this summer with Splodgenessabounds, who I was also feeling nostalgic about, and felt compelled to give them a listen. I am certain the billing said Doug and the Slugs, else I would not have gone looking for “the slugs”

    This is one of those bands that I forget about, but I know they have some great music. I just somehow fail to correlate the songs I like with the fact that they made them! I should get a DatS playlist going.

    I remember Doug and The Slugs as a house band way back when I lived in Victoria. Great band! Chinatown Calculation an alltime fave! ‘That’s cool with no regrets!’.

    My dad was a Doug and the Slugs fanboy when he was young. I grew up listening to “Making it Work”, “Too Bad”, and “Day by Day” all the time.

    I remember my parents going to see Doug and the Slugs at LuLus in Kitchener, ON, and being pissed I couldn’t go even though I was like 5.
