Opened with lonely end, nois, I don't have a setlist down yet but we did hear in view, world container, kids dont get it, lonely, ocean, along with a imo some of the greatest hits of old, abac, courage, nois, high dough, fiddlers, three pistols, wheat kings, bobc, hundreth, with encores being Family band, 2000 light years, little bones.

I liked the Sadies set too, they were loud the bass seemed heavy for a great sounding building. Ive heard better sound in copps or even MLG for that matter. You got to play loud to be heard above the winnipeg crowd for sure. The background screen they are using is cool too but could have been clearer, my seats were in section 119 at centre ice 8 rows. Overall a great night and the band rocked the house.

WOW this was a bichin' concert, Gords little antic in the middle of meridian was priceless, especially when he stuck his "gun" through Sinclairs legs! 2000 light years was nice to hear also, What a night

Had a great time the boys were solid from start to finish and my 10 year old saw his first hip show (first rock concert) and loved it – as for me they covered all of the classics each flowing well into the other – highlights a fantastic 100th Meridian, Three Pistols and it was great to hear long time running and fiddlers - and my son wants to say he enjoyed In View the best…. :jump

Best moments of the night for me were Fiddler's Green, Long Time Running, & the girl in the 3rd row who got on her boyfriends shoulders and lifted her shirt. Seats were awsome! Row 5 right in front of Gord & his mic.

Great show. Both the band and the crowd were into it right from the start. By the time FC was played you knew you were a part of a special night. Obviously Fiddler's was a highlight, but tonight's version of Meridian was something else. Gordie was his usual, energetic, dancing self (mic stand was not broken). Could tell that the boys knew that this was a special night by the way Johnny jumped up from behind the drums after the set, pumping his arms in the air, like he had just scored a touchdown.

I didn't think anything could top the WC club shows, but this blew them out of the water.

MAv, I think that this entire show should make up the next installment of the the "Live 10" series (disregarding the fact that there are 22 songs).

Once again, a Winnipeg show is the highlight of the tour so far (wasn't there, but these reviews confirm it). Same thing for the IBE tour in '04.... heard nothing but great things about the "Peg show that year...
