Reviews, thoughts, scattered vignettes, set list ... anything??? Was anyone from the UNION there? Guess we've grown a little spoiled after some of the fine reporting over the last couple of months.
Thanks out to Dana for the vids.

Great show, but other than WATS, I didn't get to hear anything that I hadn't heard them play before. On the brightside, Gord(D) seemed really energetic, and had the crowd hooked from the opening riff of NOIS (which was the best NOIS I've heard them do since 99, if not, ever), all the way til the end of Grace Too. They did a small acousitc portion of the show, which I belive was Coffee Girl, Wheat Kings, and Scared. Depression Suite was epic, Morning Moon was beautiful (and the moon was all funky and orange while they were playing it), and Recluse was every bit as good as I expected it to be as well. As stated, there was no Love Is A First, unfortunately, and I didn't get my wish for Greasy Jungle, it's real greasy alright, and that's how it keeps eluding me I think. They did the jam during Meridian again, and I thought perhaps I heard a small snippet of I'm A Werewolf Baby worked into the jam (Gord kept pretending his towel was a tail all night, so maybe). I will try to figure out the setlist as best I can later, but right now I have to go bbq for my gf's birthday, til then, cheers.

I don't know how I forgot, but Gord came right down off the stage a couple times, got practically in the crowd, and rocked out (I think someone tried to steal his guitar too and he just laughed). During a good portion of Blow at High Dough, he was singing directly in front of me, which made ditching my alcholic friends to go up front all the more worth my while. I really fucking hope they make it to Sudbury, because I swear to god, they somehow enjoy playing our smelly old barn downtown, and always seem to spoil us with really nice setlists.

A bit of a late post here ....
I know the NB setlist was similar to London but they played Giftshop in the Bay. The band seemed 'something on' Saturday evening. I think they enjoyed themselves inspite of the rain. Almost as though they played harder in the wet. The wind blew in from Lake Nippissing into the face of the stage and Robbie's hair was grooving. The rain came down in spurts but not enough for anyone to leave.
The viewing was decent from pretty much anywhere. I didn't see too many absolute drunks like other outdoor shows. I was impressed with the overall event. Everyone pretty much dancing around enjoying themselves.
I can't recall which song but somewhere near the beginning Gord made mention to Mossone. Something about living in the north.
Oh yeah they opened with New Orleans. And I'm glad I was in the beer line when they played Fireworks.
