Yes, on its face the price is $2, but there is some additional cost -- there must be -- associated with standing in line for ever after the concert waiting to get your coat back.

That's your parting gift from the fine folks at The Liberty Group.

I didn't hear it. Mav, do you go to all of their shows? Do you do something else for a living? (just curious)

Sorry MAv,
if it happened, I missed that one.
Of course, there are about 7 recordings of the show so I am sure that if Gord did, someone will pick it up! :thumb:

no, I don't go to all their shows. If they bring me out or I want to go, but I have been to the majority of them in the last year.

I kinda play on my computer full time to make a buck or two. I create web sites, applications and games full time for various clients. Basically.

So you are pretty good friends with them though, and have a pass to go to any you want?

That's pretty sweet.

So I bet you want to let them know that The Dark Canuck should most definately be on the setlist for tonight or tomorrow, right? ;) pleeeasse????

Can we "play with" any of your games or apps anywhere?

MAv, can you annouce a contest and make me the winner?
It would be called the "Meet Up With Sinclair Before The Soundcheck And Help Write The Setlist For That Night's Concert (Before The Soundcheck, Just In Case They Need To Practice A Rarity Or Seven) Contest"?

That would be a dream come true.

That would be an awesome contest -- to make it more realistic it could be "Two Songs Chosen By You, Dedicated To You". You meet with GS before the show and pick yer two songs, then you get to stick around for the soundcheck. Then you get a front row seat and a backstage pass, and you die happy.

I'd pick Killing Time twice.

Which night at Ontario Place Forum in '91? They played 3 nights in a row, and I recorded the 2nd night's performance (my first hip show). It's been on the tracker before, although I might have to re-upload the recording for anyone who hasn't caught it previously.
