I have finally got around to posting my review of last night. Yesturday was a cloudy day in Halifax, fog rolling in from the ocean. We got to watch the whole city and ocean from my friends amazing downtown apartment patio. Ryan lives 5 minute walk from the show, just on the other side of the hill.
We drank alittle before we hit the show. We missed the first few bands, The Trews and Three Days Grace. We found our spot on the hill and Crush was playing, I really don't care much for Crush. We had our own dedicated beer guy that kept bring us beer every 15 minutes. Then Finger 11 hit the stage, they had a alright show. Default was amazing! Default was the real reason I wanted to go. The crowd was weak for a "Concert on the Hill" in Halifax. Last year was sick, 40000 people and 10 washrooms! Well not that bad, but it felt that way. This year was alot better. Everyone I talk to about last years show and how The Hip rocked Halifax
Nickelback put on a great show, I had low expectations going in. It was a classic rock show with fireworks and fire. They played a good new tune, the first line of the song is "I love to see your pants around your knees".
All and All, I would give the event a B+, Halifax was spoiled last year.
