Sorry I still heard the screaming. I listened to a live version of their show from Fort York in 2006 last night. That was the band I remember, gems all over the place, and all members were on their game. Just my opinion.

I haven't been to a show on this tour, mostly because of the ridiculous ticket prices. But I've watched a lot of youtube clips from recent shows, and Gord sounds pretty damn good for the most part. His voice has changed a lot over the years, and there's no way he'll ever be able to sing the way he did in the 90s, so you just have to take it for what it is. He still sounds great in the studio though. His singing on NFPA was excellent, and although I'm basically done with them as a live band, I'm still looking forward to their next album.

The 'Pick 3' Option is $99, and you get yer choice of any three days. And those passes are cheaper than the price of tix this past Feb @ the Bell Center.

In all seriousness, I'd ask Downie... Why no roc doc or bio book dude? A proper roc doc would be so awesome.

Gordon Downie...What do you think about all the bored lifeless losers out there posting their opinions and beliefs about the life you are living? Do they not have a life of their own?
