I don't think it's luck so much, just obsession, listenting to the radio for events, expecting small shows before album releases and being vigilant to the website and hipbase for details about stuff. I also lived in TO for a number of years, was a undergrad and since they do lots of stuff around the GTA I had the time and ability to do stuff when most people were working (a situation i now find myself in when hip events come up).
I have yet to get a pick or drum stick but i've got a couple of setlists. Rob seems the most approachable and talkative of the bunch. At the one video shoot I was at they were doing some closeups of Gord D and Rob was just hanging out watching with the audience. He spoke to anyone and everyone who approached him, didn't rush them and was quite amiable after one and a half days of shooting. We spoke briefly but it was memorable.
