    54•40 has been telling Canada where they came from and where they’re going for the last 40 years. Now, it’s time for Neil, Brad, Dave, and Matt to reveal their band culture in a collection of songs called West Coast Band. Through self-referential and often very literal stories, the songs explore bizarre shenanigans, odd dynamics and personalities of its members.

about

Our keyboardist Oz once doubled as out tour manager. Having neverbeen there before, how was he to know you need a reservation in Chicago.

lyrics

Chicago

Coming in on the I-94
Chicago I'm so excited for the night

Well it was about 20 minutes after 4 we just rolled in on the 94
The band's gotta play a gig tonight in Chicago
Well I figured there just be a motel somewhere
I figured that we could just show up and declare
But apparently that's not the case
And now I got egg on my face ‘cause

I never been to Chicago before
I guess we'll have to sleep on some fan’s floor
Sorry about this situation
In Chicago I didn't know you need a reservation

Well the boys they got upset with me and said
Hey Oz how could this be
Come on Oz tell us it's just a dream
And I said no boys I don't know boys this never happens to me

I never been to Chicago before
I guess we'll have to sleep on some fans floor
Sorry about this situation
In Chicago I didn't know you need a reservation

Oz-burger what have you done
Oz-burger we're all done
Oz-burger what have you done

I never been to Chicago before
I guess we'll have to sleep on some fans floor
Sorry about this situation
In Chicago I didn't know you needed reservation
