Reply To: a ride back from the Toronto Show
Yeah Encubed, I wanna see the rest of the show, please dagnabit.
Also, the song that was listed in the SoftRocked medley as “not being recognized” was “Sundown” by Gordon Lightfoot, which oddly enough got the best reception of all the medley songs (though of course everybody always sings along really loudly to Hey Jude, but that happens everywhere on planet Earth and not just at a JoCo show).
The reaction to Curl was actually really good, oddly enough. Jonathan even stuck in a really quick “Sorry!” just before he sang the line “gotta keep the Canadians down”. After the song was over there was audience banter regarding the fact that the US team ended up not winning. When Jonathan mentioned something about being hopeful for a medal in curling I belted out “Ha Ha, Fat Chance” (with the correct notes) because I am a complete smart-ass. Thankfully there was enough audience noise at the time that it wasn’t really heckling. Plus Jonathan already knows how big a fan I am 😉
Lastly, Headrickinator, i was hoping to send this in a private message (which i’ve done but I have no idea if it got through or not) but I live in Guelph. Sorry that I hadn’t been checking the message boards or else I would have offered you a drive to the show. The show was sold out by advance ticket sales for a few weeks beforehand, so if you did buy a ticket that you couldn’t use that would totally suck.
