Shaking off the rust

Folksy jammers Rusted Root have just announced their first Canadian tour dates in nearly 13 years, on September 11 (no wonder it's outside the US...) at Lee's Palace in Toronto, and at the Harvest Blues & Jazz Festival in Fredericton, NB September 13-14.Could a stop

RR has toiled in obscurity on the fringes of the jam scene for two decades now, first appearing on the scene with John Popper's H.O.R.D.E. festivals in the 90s, but a recent-car rental commercial featuring "Send Me On My Way" has brought them back into popular consciousness. Ok, maybe not, but it doesnt hurt to have a song you recorded in 1994 finally have some commercial success!
