Oh my God!
I normally do not risk extraordinary rendition for the sake of music, but I think I'll have to attempt a border crossing for this one.
Do Americans need passports to enter Canada yet?

Yes, but I think you can also use your birth certificate and some other photo ID instead to cross if needed:
