Sorry I didn't get to see you dogs. Too busy up front!
Also, they played Blow At High Dough instead of 50 Mission Cap... that would have been nice.
Oh well. It was forkin' sweet!
I think I saw you, Bonner. You were the guy who kept sitting on another guy's shoulders all show, right?
Great time. After they finished the third song, I turned to Rory and said that it was worth it already.
Gord's voice sounded terrific. I begin hearing some technical difficulties during Giftshop and then on some other songs after. It seemed like Robbie's guitar was too loud or something. There was some distortion. I had a hard time hearing some of Robbie's solos, but it didn't really matter. The show was awesome. I only cursed at a few people.
Paul pulling on the mic chord to get the mic out of Gord's heart was priceless. Gord must have thrown about 50 hankies into the crowd, which was strange but funny.
Gord chased Billy Ray off the stage, which was cool. Gord got his head rubbed near the end of the show by the fans, which was kind of funny. Gord wore that classic shirt that some say is a shirt that Bubbles would wear. I took a few pics but most of them didn't turn out. I have a cheap camera.
Lance was taking pics all night, though. I'm sure his will be good.
Being around Darren, Lance, Rory, Jason, and Brandy during Collective Sould made it as fun as possible. Funny comments were flowing like wine. Lance, I heard you snickering when the CS lead singer started playing the AC/DC riff.
The old guy in the crowd with the Harley Davidson leather jacket was a riot, almost getting into a fight with a young lad. Technically, one or two punches were thrown so I guess you could call it a fight. Seeing the old guy square off like he was Bruce Lee was definitely entertaining.
Well, it was a great night all around for me. Got to see Rory all hopped up on Red Bull before the show
and got to make a fool of myself at the Olde Dublin before the show.
Jason, Darren, Rory, Brandy, and Lance, it was a pleasure to hang out with you and watch the show, even if I was an easy target at times for your jokes and mocking me.
While walking back to my car, some stranger stopped me and gave me a backstage pass. I went to the venue to try to get backstage but, alas, they wouldn't let me back in. Oh well, I tried.
Some of my pics are here:

Locked for Gift Shop and 50MC for Blow. I was hoping to hear Locked, but I am not complaining. Great show, as usual. Fiddler's was an absolute treat. Had a great time and always cool to hookup with Hipbase groupies and attend the show. Lance, Steve, Rory, Brandy and Jason.
