The Toronto show at the Molson Ampitheatre was awesome.  Regretfully I haven't seen one of your shows for many years (at least five back in Kelowna BC).  The expectations were high...and you boys blew those expectations out of the water. Can't wait for the next concert!

Cheers!

July 12-
First time seeing GBS and it was probably the best concert I've ever been to!  Such high energy music (and crowd) it was incredible.  Way beyond expectations (which were quite high) Congratulations GBS on being amazing entertainers.
Lynette, the opening band was Joel Plaskett Emergency.

The opening act was Nova Scotia's Joel Plaskett Emergency. The boys killed it. My son was hoping to hear Donkey Riding for his 7th Birthday. Instead he got treated to an arsenal of 27 killer tunes. This show was one to remember. Not to say, all GBS shows aren't but it was off the (fishing) hook. Can't wait for the next Toronto gig. I'm hoping sooner then later. Sean's pipes we're dead on Saturday. Hangman was just plain sick. In a good way :P

The Toronto concert was outstanding. Me and a buddy made the flight up from Halifax for the night and it was definitly worth the plane ticket. I didn't see a single person sitting down the whole night, and my voice still hasn't come back yet. That was the most fun i've had in a long time!

The Bluesfest show was pure brilliance!! Perfect mix of new and older song and all my faves were played. Gen. Taylor was wicked and I really loved Alan's reaction to the audience holler back on Oh Yeah!  Goodonya boys for drawing the biggest Bluesfest crowd.. I haven't heard official numbers yet but the breakdown for attendance was - 1. GBS  2. Tragically Hip 3. Wyclef - Snoop Dog had 26,000 and he's not even in the top 3!!
