Splendid evening.
Gord had gained at lest 20lbs since Vancouver. Moving a lot more, seemed like old gord. WAY less sad tonight.
Love this band and their fans.

Reeling setlist, loved music@work tredge. ahead by a century outro was fantastic (Gord looked so engulfed over the front lip of the stage that Robby came and gave him a tap to que a break/change). grace was rolling hard, the lasting "Him (God as I decided to interpret it tonight), here, No!" from above had me a waterfall. I think it was during springtime? where he air-boxed (boxing) a couple rounds up front which I loved too!
Really cool how they broken a setlist in Album pieces. Flows

Just got home from Toronto #1...definitely a different vibe than the London show...more mellow overall, but a great time!

What a night, what a show. Ears ringing from the crowd. Have never heard a crowd that loud.
Setlist highlights were the Luxury, Lake Fever, Putting Down, Flamenco,and So Hard Done By. Have never loved the studio version of Springtime but love it live.
50MC and BobC are so special in TO.
"I remember Buffalo, I remember Toronto"
Favourite moments:
When Gord came onstage. Pictures and words do no justice for the silver suit.
When Gord came on stage for the first encore he gave his bodyguard a kiss at the top of the stairs.
Best Grace I've ever heard.
Gord S singing all the words to Nautical as they played.
Gord talking about playing shows to 7 people, 18 people, 132 people, 67 people. "They just couldn't get rid of us".
