The roar during Grace in Calgary#1 was the loudest I've heard a crowd anywhere. It was louder than in this video. It drowned out the music. I was sitting just to the right and a little below this camera angle. This is the roar <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="https://youtu.be/HfivnfpW7A4?t=4m30s">https://youtu.be/HfivnfpW7A4?t=4m30s</a><!-- m -->

I was there and absolutely blown away by this moment. Here is an excerpt from the review I wrote about that show specifically speaking about Grace Too.

With the first sets complete a costume change occurred and for me a new direction for the show started to emerge under the baseline of So Hard Done By. Day for Night was on the table and the tracks got deeper much like the albums undertones. I love this album and maybe it’s the bias kicking in – but this was the show I came to see. Yawning or Snarling was delivered flawlessly. Daredevil thundered. Then it happened, the ultimate power bomb - Grace Too.



Unceremoniously Gord reached into the crowd and retrieved a pair of blue rimmed bug eyed glasses. He gently placed them over his eyes and immediately was cast under a spell. The onstage possession lit the fire storm of the audience. The next six minutes were brimming with a band thriving off the very energy that built this city. Imagine a game seven atmosphere romancing a campfire sing along, that was Grace Too. The crowd was so ravenous for one man to step to the microphone and plead his case. The place was frothing o n that electricity and at times it was hard to hear the band over the crowd. Think about that: It was so loud in that stadium you couldn’t hear the band – at a rock concert. The intensity rose to a fever pitch during those six magical minutes and never came down for the rest of the night. I get goose bumps just thinking about.


This is why you pay the money, why you get yourself in that building.
