St. Catharines Show

[miss new wave]

Well, i was at the St. Catharines show on Tuesday night....and I'm NOT a student....BAH hahahahahahha... ahh connections..

 

Anyway, don't worry, for those of you who couldn't make it..you really didn't miss anything. WORST VENUE EVER!!!!!! I even heard Matt say after that he wasn't very impressed...he even cut the encore short because he was so fed up with trying to make the music sound right in that crappy set-up. We walked around the entire time trying to find a good spot to watch from, but there were none!

 

There were a couple funny parts, like Pat starting to play the wrong song...Matt said 'that's what happens when the drummer shows up 10 minutes before the concert...!'.

 

Anyone else go?

Where was the venue? On the campus? I know the campus bar here at waterloo is a pretty nice venue for concerts, i would have thought brock was the same.

 

He played arizona's last year but it was not students only.

[miss new wave]

Yeah, it was the campus pub...Isaac's I think it was called..?

I think that smaller, crappier venues would be better. It would eliminate the use of high-tech audio-altering devices and give a more pure sound. Of course, the acoustics might make his singing appear off tune and some instruments louder or quieter than others.

[here is no why]

yeah i was there. issac's isn't a good palce to see shows, but i've been to a couple there... Gob / Matt Good... the show itself was still pretty good. it's just a small venue, with a tiny stage.

[montrealmike]

so, what are we talking about, 200 people or so?

[miss new wave]

It's not that it was small that was the problem...it was similar in size to all venues on this tour. It's just the acoustics of that particular room, and the lighting and the stage setup that was horrible.

pretty standard...was exactly like hamilton show, except you missed out on a few songs (poor man's grey, can't get shot..) but you did get Giant which is awesome.
