Blue Rodeo's pedal steel player Bob Egan is leaving the band for a job with the Kitchener Public Library. The Minnesota-born transplant has been with Blue Rodeo for more than 17 years and, before that, with the band Wilco. Egan's last gig with Blue Rodeo is set for Saturday in Toronto at the CNE, but he doesn't rule out performing with them again one day. "It takes a lot for somebody to leave Rodeo," Egan said Friday from his new office at the Kitchener library. Library appealEgan says it's an exciting time to join the Kitchener library, which he calls an "architectural jewel" after undergoing a $40-million renovation.
