A note from Mike Epting:

"I do recall there was a one-off show I think when the Slimtones were broke-up/on hiatus that included Adam Svenson(Squirrel Energy Now! head honcho 🙂). I think it was for a benefit of some sort we were asked to play. I might even have the set list somewhere. Adam played bass and Dan and I stuck to guitar.

The final line up was around late 96 and added Kylie Buddin(Red Throb[?], Paisley Bible)on bass. I think we just got back together for shits and giggles as Dan and John had graduated I am pretty sure and I was close to doing the same. We had all known Kylie for a long time and he was a bit of a booster for the earlier version of the Slimtones. Pretty sure I have a photo of the first line-up playing at a record store above the Deadwood(BJ's maybe?)with Kylie sitting in. This line-up was involved with the Feedlot shows etc. Feedlot has a youtube channel and you can find a lot of live stuff from bands of this era. Scott and Josh from Stuff were big into the Public Access TV deal."
