giving me nothing else better to do on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Maybe I should be out X-country skiing.
Although too far away to see, this lady here had a small terrier in her backpack. Why she just didnt outfit the dog with ski's I'll never know.
Prince George is...
...A Study In Contrasts.
But
the highlight of yesterday was without a doubt the
Glass Tiger concert.
<------QT Movie
Had a post picture taking event laugh at this one...
this lucky girl waited and waited and was finally
rewarded for her patience by having her pic taken with the band...but I laughed when I saw my cam
phone might have momentarily distracted them..
this one...turned out better..
I too waited around till the end, and was just about to be escorted out by security, when an absolutely stunning back-up singer for the band came to my figurative rescue and
asked the lead singer Alan Frew if he could pose with me for a shot just before leaving. We handed the cam phone to the guard and he took a snap and the mercurial moment was set and after that I was enjoying some rareified air.
Glass Tiger put on a great show, sorry I cannot offer more descriptive passages...but they were so attuned to the audience is all I can say. How could they miss!
Honeymoon Suite as openers were classic. All in
all a terrific show! First time touring together after 20 years.
The venue: CN Center. Parking lot was full when I arrived, nearly empty when I left.
Glass Tiger/Honeymoon Suite had a raffle
for 2-VIP passes to a post-concert party, authographed acoustics guitars and more,more,more...all in aid of a battered womens
support group and also to assist their children.*
I bought a ticket but needless to say never won,
and think Cloud Nine would have been reserved for
at least a month if I had.
*What a great band!
You can see them
February 11th in Ontario in a Benefit Concert in aid of Lou Gehrigs Disease.
Heres an
interview.Much special thanks to lead singer Allan Frew for gracefully allowing me have his photo taken with me.
