Missing the first Maritime shows since 2004.
Hope they kick as much ass as the Danforth and Bell Centre shows!
But if you guys get Emperor Penguin... imma be pissed!
Great show last night. The boys sounded tight. I was expecting cruise controll for Fully but Gord was into it. Great set list, Titanic, Twist My Arm, Nautical and no New Orleans! Did a quick parascope from the second row.
Best part of the show was when Gord was pretending to "lift enormous things" and qinked at the large guy in the front row, right in front of me. Also, during Fifty Mission Cap a guy came out of nowhere with a Maple Leafs watch and wanted Gord to see the watch. He did get Gord's attention and Gord basically said "WTF are you doing?" Wish I had that on video.
I will post picks and some video later tonight. Also got a setlist (well, my wife did for me )
It was a really good show; I was 4th row right in front of Paul where Gord spent most of the night. Really enjoyed the setlist, second time seeing Titanic (they played it here in 2013 too). Twist my Arm along with Scared followed by Nautical Disaster were also awesome and Blow to finish was fantastic.
I was very happy with Fully Completely; the boys looked like they were having fun and I really enjoyed the show. Awesome to see Pigeon Camera, Locked, Wherewithal and Eldorado as I had pretty much given up on seeing those live.
I taped it but have some cleaning up to do; the girl standing next to me liked to clap right next to my mics so I have a few spikes to deal with before I can do anything else to the file.
The 'Other Ten' song choices I find odd for this show,
mainly because the 'gems' they played were played at the Halifax show in 2013 as well (Escape, Scared)... and Titanic Terrarium has only made 2 appearances in recent history... both in Halifax.

Odd.
I was pretty surprised when I saw Rob with the 12 string and the first notes of Titanic rang out. Not that I was unhappy to hear it again but surprised that we would get it again.
Always happy to hear Escape and Scared and while I'd be happy with pretty much anything, Twist my Arm and Blow to finish were highlights for me. ETA - I was really hoping for Three Pistols but I guess I'll have to keep waiting.
Been going through the recording - the instruments are great but I think the crowd noise and proximity to the stage caused some issues with the vocals - they're there but not the best recording I've done with this setup. Usually I record from the lower bowl but couldn't pass up 4th row.

My wife and I really enjoyed this show (probably more than the one in 2013). I'm glad to see that a recording was made of the show and we look forward to hearing it in the future when you're finished massaging it. It also turns out that we were a couple of rows behind you on the floor.
