I was there yesterday. Yeah, Gord was a bit yell-y...but the rest of the band sounded good, and y'know what? I enjoyed myself. Gord was in a great mood. Some of his one-liners were great:
"I'm a Bruins fan. This is surrender."
"This is not a Bruins song."
The rant about the girl on the man's shoulder.
The "fucking commute" intro to "Bobcaygeon."
The one thing I didn't like was the incursion of Those Two Awful Songs from NFPA into a shortened set for casual fans. That said, I know now--because my friend and I counted--that Gord says the word "drip" 61 times in "We Want To Be It." Anyway. I enjoyed myself. And I don't think we as a community are making a big enough deal out of Paul's facial hair.
