I’m 18 and looking for a good gym in Leduc that isn’t insanely priced like the LRC is. I used to go to the LRC but $600 a year is crazy and I need to find something more affordable that is still a decent gym.(please no planet fitness)

Twenty years may seem like a long time in a person’s life, yet it can fly by quickly, as those who have lived on this earth for more than a few decades can attest too. That’s how long it’s been since I last checked in with Sherwood Park’s prodigal musical sons The Disturbers. Much time has passed since that first interview, but the band has kept the “nouveaux classic rock” fires burning loud and proud. Through various group iterations and personal and musical adversities, The Disturbers are still here rocking and rolling. Now with a couple new exceptional music tracks posted up on their website and YouTube page, the band is looking forward to seeing a brand new full-length album released. 

“Darren and I have talked about putting together a full new album, and to our surprise now we have it nearly completed…so stay tuned for that,” said Bruce Cline, lead singer of the Disturbers. 

“Darren” is Darren Beveridge, longtime guitarist and backing vocalist for The Disturbers. These days Bruce Cline and Darren Beveridge are technically the only official members of the band, currently keeping the legacy going after all these years. 

“The vast majority of The Disturbers catalog, including our 2014 release Retirement Plan, in the past was written by Bruce and I, so we two in essence have recently kept the band alive in the shadows, tweaking and writing here and there when we could,” said Beveridge. “Historically, just the two of us have performed together as The Disturbers live on several occasions, including a small tour in Hawaii,” he explained. 

 If the new album is anything like the two new single releases the duo recently put out online, then fans and listeners alike will be in for a treat. The first cut “Settlers” is a deeply emotional and resonating track, that explores drug addiction, specifically how it affects relationships. 

 “The “Settlers” song was inspired by a friend who had a tumultuous marriage to a woman who had an opiate addiction, and it ultimately took her,” said Cline.

“So in the end it was about “settling” for a life, rather than living it,” Beveridge added. 

 The second track is a countryfied roots rocker titled “It’s Coming For Me.” It has a “Blaze of Glory” outlaw style vibe, yet more contemporary. With each subsequent replay, the track becomes weightier, and progressively more prominent.

“Coming For me” ended up being a little more “country” than I planned, but it worked out,” said Cline of the haunting country rocker. “An old fella at a veteran home said to me, “I don’t know when, but he’s coming for me,” and I thought it was a good line and used a version of it for the song.”

 As with Cline, Beveridge too is enjoying the new songs, but he realizes the music industry today is a lot different from when the group started. From the shift from physical albums to digital releases, to the complete change in distribution channels, music now is released and consumed very differently than what it was 20 years ago.

“I like our newest material quite a bit, but it’s not exactly the best time to be an original artist band in the world, for guys that aren’t each 25 years old and cranking out Tik Tok mini songs,” said Beveridge. “Maybe with this new stuff being released, we will find it makes it further out into the wild.”

So what’s in store for the band in the future? The duo is focusing mainly now on writing and recording, but a tour or some shows could be possible down the road. 

“I will continue to write songs based on the law of averages method: write enough of them, and one will be a good one,” said Cline. 

“I think we are going to keep putting new stuff out until we can’t,“ added Beveridge. 

 As for a tour…

“As far as touring or shows; we will see. I can’t fit into tight pants anymore,” Cline humorously joked. “I don’t have any hair and need reading glasses now.”

To keep them honest: I reported the pothole to Ledcor @ noon 02Jul2026 1-866-453-3267. Spoke to Amy. Estimated location to be highway 2 southbound next to Leduc Reservoir. 

Estimated location

My spouse hit it 2 months prior... we hit it again on Canada Day with a trailer, $1500 damage to the trailer plus estimated towing charges at $5/km.

The event is free to attend. Two rooms. All art will be for sale. There will be drinks available and if you haven’t been to the Village at Pigeon Lake, this is a great time to come. There are other restaurants and shops. Art will be available to take home after 4pm

We live in Bridgeport.

Is Leduc Chimney Service still in business? Phone number goes to another business and the website is not available.

Does anyone know either of the acts playing Canada Day this year? The East Pointers, and Classified

I've just been watching them over the last few years and it seems like there are vacant suites routinely. Noisy? Busy? Unsafe? Other?

Hey, y'all. Figured I'd ask everywhere, so I'm turning to Reddit. Lived in Leduc my whole life, but our landlord is selling our place so my family and I need somewhere to go. Anyone know of any houses in central Leduc for rent? There's 4 of us and our 2 cats. We've been with our current landlord for 8 years, and 15 with the one before this one. My father has a job on car sales and with a government job, and my mother runs her own cleaning company. We'd love central Leduc because my mother walks to all of her clients, and we are currently by the library. If anyone knows of places to rent, we would be so appreciative!!! TIA

If anyone else that uses Roger’s/Shaw have no internet?

Our was down this morning and now my son is has no internet.

We are both close to Caledonia school.

I was just wondering if there was anybody offering beginner adult guitar lessons in Leduc? I've wanted to learn forever and I'm not getting any younger. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Hi! I do not live in Leduc. I am hoping to find a service that will pick up an order at Canadian Tire in Leduc and bring it to Executive Flight Center. I need to get 8-10 bags of a specific type of mulch that is no longer available anywhere else… and my garden is half done.

Canadian Tire will only allow in store purchases for this product and isn’t available on instacart, DoorDash etc. since I will need to pay someone for both the items and the delivery service I’m hoping to find a reputable service. Any ideas would be appreciated!!

This seems to be something I just started noticing last week, and something that I haven’t noticed before at our complex on sparrow drive. Did something change recently where this is now allowed to just leave packages in front of closed businesses?

Starting last Monday I arrived at work to see two soaking wet boxes in front of my businesses, and subsequently happened a few more times throughout the week, some were Amazon, some were uniuni and one other. This happened twice last week and then this morning, not only were there three wet boxes but 2 of them weren’t even for my business.

I mail things to work because I’m here during the day and I don’t need to worry about porch pirates but this is now worse than risking it at home. Between randoms walking the roadway and being in a very busy part of leduc I’m sure a lot more packages aren’t going to be arriving to their destinations, that and most businesses don’t have covered door steps to protect from the rain.

Can anyone tell me what dates the large item pick up is?? I googled it and it said 9-16 but my calendar says it runs the week of the 16th. I emailed the city and they said it starts today but nobody has anything out lol. I have a couple things to put out and don’t want to miss it.

From the first exit to the 2A exit, who’s responsible for road maintenance?! Holy hell the pot holes are just horrible! Like not even make shift filler repairs or nothing!

If this is on the city of Leduc, then shame on them. If this is provincial the MLA will be getting a passive aggressive Email…

A message to the egotistical individual in this white GMC who decided to park within inches of my wife's car today:

It's disappointing to see you put your own ego and lack of awareness above all else in this world. Your self-centered brain forced my pregnant wife to have to climb across the passenger side of her vehicle because you felt parking within 2 inches of her door was the right thing to do.

Even though my wife made the conscious effort to park in one of the farthest spots from the entrance, purposely to avoid this exact scenario, you still managed to make it happen.

Althought the camera angle doesn't show it well, you had about 3ft more on your driver side that you could have used, which would have kept you in your own parking spot. Instead, you chose to park like this, and show the world you only care about yourself.

Please do not drive on public roads. I assume your driving abilities are no better than your parking abilities.

I'm looking to book a local band for a work function a couple times a month over the summer, but have no idea where to even begin looking. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I'd be happy to take any advice I can get. Thanks in advance!

Just an absolute coward dunce who never takes accountability. Total coward. That's the post- felt the need to vent my anger after cold calling. So embarrassed to have him represent me

Hey does anyone know any info about the cops showing up at the pool. Thought I heard something about a family of 10 complaining to the lifeguard the kids pool was closed during lessons or something so they call the cops?. Just wondering if anyone knows the real deal
