Yeah. I might need to endure one more outdoor show. The amount of jackassery bound to show up at a Canada Day weekend Hip show does not bode well, however.
I feel your pain. After Edmonton last summer I swore that I'd never go to another outdoor Hip show in Canada again, but for that lineup I'd probably have to make an exception.
Yeah, I was at that show. And, wanting a good view, I was up there in the middle of it. It was manageable for most of the show. But by the end of the main set I was getting elbowed like I was in the corner with Gordie Howe. Made my way back to the sound booth for the encore. It was much better. I vowed theatre shows from there on out. However, seeing Death Cab, the New Pornographers, and the Hip on the same day is pretty tempting. Plus, I like Niagara-on-the-Lake. Back when I lived in Thorold, I volunteered two summers at Fort George.
