Got it in one
I've met him a few times and he's a bigger bell end in real life than he is in the papers or on the radio.
I know the old booker for King Tut's and any time an up and coming band would play there Sloan would phone him to ask what they were like and then the next day he'd have a full page spread about how he'd seen this awesome new band at Tut's the night before lol.
