+1 regarding the sound quality in Calgary - the sound quality at the corral for the Wiggles last year was truly awful, distorted and not very clear at all :blink:

You must have been gutted ;)

Soft rock legends Starship are playing in Halifax. The city is buzzing under the anticipation.

Will be seeing Fleetwood Mac in April in Boston, or more importantly staring at Stevie Nicks.

Well ya know ;) . I was dropping kids there COs they were singing, I realllllllly needed the loo before I drove home and Sara was human enough to allow me to use her "outhouse". Stevie was waiting when I came out!

A true sign of assimilation is singing along to a Bryan Adams song....a true sign of becoming a dreaded 'cradle'.:thumbsup:

My only musical name dropping is that I chatted with Julio Iglesias at Nice Airport as he was sitting with 2 blondes in the back of a limo and my uncle was the road manager etc of the Hollies.

Surely one can't acquire cradleism? I've always assumed it was a purely congenital condition?

Did you get your tickets sent by mail or are you picking them up at the box office before the show?

Cradleism by proxy. Someone has left Canada and, sorted for e's, is dancing to drum and bass. Cosmic karma is balanced by the person who now wears unlaced Kodiaks and sings along to the 80s hits on the radio.

(80s! I looked that up thinking Bryan Adams career must have predated the Sex Pistols but he only predates the Sex Pistols' records reaching Canada)

There, now you've shattered my illusion of karmic threads being presented in a nice hand-sewn eiderdown quilt by printing a ******* Nickelback cover photo on it :thumbdown:

If any of you have the opportunity, check out 'Mystery' a Montreal based 'Prog' band. One of the very few positive things to emanate from Quebec...;) Shades of Rush....but better! May they go on to bigger and better things...they deserve it!
