Hey Scott!
Love your pics! The first and the last really stood out for me! That first one - could be our promo pic for a new boys band!

Works fine for me...can anyone else confirm or deny the working status of Scott's photos?

Possible the "Sing-a-longs?" But I think "4 SEXY Beasts!" would probably work too!

Photo's work fine for me.

Odd that they aren't showing up. If you can't see them, right click & "save as":

Whatever name you choose, all of you definitely need to get the same green t-shirt that Chris so memorably modeled, so that you can be a true boy band.

I like it! The tour could consist of only audience participation

Super awesome show. I was glad to have finally heard the band play Flamenco live. Favourite tune.

Yeah i thought it was odd too. But now I know why, and the explanation is even that much weirder: the website hosting those pics is blocked by my employer's server, and the reason is listed as...get this....

"gambling".

Here's a not-so-positive review of the show from Chartattack.com. Mostly it seems to be a review of the drunken, idotic crowd who were booing the Sadies and the Weakerthans. But they do give Downie full marks for being so crazy.

I couldn't say that any better myself. And I add you BIGVDOGG, your footage from Seattle 2013 is some of the best from that tour (might help that I was there).

I grabbed this Toronto show from Dime and thought it was the best show I'd seen. Then I went to srb's youtube page and started watching the concert from the 24th! Sherpa, Chagrin Falls, dropoff, huge jam in 100th Meridian...
I just wish your youtube uploads were 720 or better (am I being greedy?

)

Without you tapers my Hiplife would be so incomplete! thank you all.
