Pretty Girls with Pretty Hair Cuts...
WOAH! SO much awesome.
Joel Plaskett Concert tonight. Let me just take a minute.
Ok.
Despite the fact that it was sub-zero in the building, it was an amazing show. The 2 opening bands were really good which is pretty rare, I really enjoyed them. The first was called Two Hour Traffic, they're from PEI, if you ever have the chance to check them out i highly recommend it. Then there was Cuff the Duke from Oshawa ON. They were frickin amazing. The last song they did the lead guitarist played his guitar with a bow. They reminded me of a cross between Godspeed You Black Emperor and like... the Mellowtones from Halifax? Weird sound, amazing band. I bought their CD. But then. THEN my friends, Mr. Plaskett himself came on.... woah dude.
First song they played was Work Out Fine, which was awesome. By the time JPE took the stage the crowd was pratically chanting Joel! Joel! Joel!
Among the other stuff they played: Radio Fly, Down at the Khyber, You came Along, Red Light, Joel played a solo acoustic version of True Patriot Love. They played an encore, first song was from the new album wich Joel did solo and acoustic again, it was called The reason that I Love this Town, which was dedicated to Halifax and was so cool. Definately made me homesick. They also played Come on Teacher which was pretty tight...
Man.. anyway all in all, well worth the price to see them.
And now to bed. Since it's frickin freazing and I cannot feel my toes. Thank you and Goodnight.
