I don't think this has been mentioned yet, but I believe early in the show Gord whipped out an imaginary joint and shared with Paul, hand toke of course as he was still strummin!

I saw the setlist on monday for the board guy, but looked away as fast I could and never looked back, part of the fun is always wondering "what could be next" ?
I was immediately right of the soundboard and kept looking to see what was next. Thankfully my eyes suck and I couldn't really read the writing, so what I thought I read usually wasn't the song they played.

Thanks a lot! The dry ice in the air usually makes for great ambience if you are up close. It just kills everything when you are back a bit.

That's two shows in a row that I have been lucky enough to be 5 feet from the stage.

Wow! Big Grin Those are great. Thanks for sharing. I can't belive how much Gord sweats though! :lol:

Just out of interest, what's the capacity of the Pheonix Theatre?

- chris - 10-24-2006

1,100 in the main room... which is where the concerts are held. Approximately.

sean.bonner Wrote:I find it really bizarre how they have played the entire album two nights in a row... but at least all the other songs have been completely different these two nights. Great reviews, guys.

If you go back and check previous tours setlists you will find that they tend to play all or most of the new material at the beginning of the tour. As the tour progresses they usually get down to about 8 new tunes, mixing in the old ones. Also, i noticed that they play very few songs from the previous CD as a rule, so we will likely hear very litlle of IBE. I guess from the bands standpoint they played the crap out of the last CD on the last tour so time to give it a rest.

what time to get there at - habsrule - 10-24-2006

The show starts at 9pm. Be there before that.

The line-up has started as early as 5:30, but in a venue of this size, if you get there by 8:15 you'll have a good spot. If you get there at 9, you'll still have a good spot - it's not that big of a venue, and the stage is elevated - about 5.5 feet high, so you can see from everywhere.
