It was depressing to witness a chat forum dedicated to celebrating this wonderful band descend to the sounds of spoiled children. Until I read this:

"But I still feel pretty damn lucky about this band."

As soon as we take our eye off the ball and forget our endless, limitless good fortune in witnessing the greatest rock 'n roll band there ever was, shouldn't we move on to other things in our lives worthy of celebration?

Remember: love is keeping it all in.

I also see both sides to this setlist issue. We wouldn't be fans if we didn't crave some deeper cuts at these summer shows! To remedy this, I say have the guys simply play 3 more songs per night. Switch those up each show. Two encores of three songs insted of one. Problem solved :)

Great Videos of Poets and LIAF....super HD!

Looking forward to Windsor! Regardless of setlist....(but certainly hoping for something different)

Weres LIAF vid?
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

I had a great time at this concert... amazing venue! It was nice to have a less crazy crowd... oysters and red wine at a Hip show was amazing!! We made friends with some VIP people and they got us into the after party. Gord told me that the new album was coming out in September.

Some pics below! :jump
