Sadier's birthday was on May 6th so I really missed this one! I discovered Stereolab in 1999 or so when I was at the El Mocambo in Toronto to see the Belle and Sebastian side project, Looper. All of a sudden, Peng! started playing on the PA between bands and I asked the girl next to me if she knew who it was (This was before Shazam and yes I'm really dating myself!) She replied she thought it was Stereolab and I immediately bought every Stereolab album I could afford at the time.
