BNL

Hello peoples!

Well, we had a awesome night last night! We went to the Barenaked Ladies concert.... it was so great! DH once told me if we ever had the opportunity to go, he wanted to and I was able to get tickets in September for it. It was probably the longest concert that I have ever been to - YEAH! (I hate it when concerts are only 1.5 hours long - what a gip!) The opening guy was Tomi Swick who was pretty good, had a different sound, sounded a little like Bono in a few songs, and did a cover of Graceland by Paul Simon. Check out his site and you can listen to his songs - apparently he is up for some Juno awards, as he is from Hamilton, ON. I personally had never heard of him, though I love the harmonies in his songs.

Anyway, the BNL came up after the intermission and were so good. I love that they not only did stuff from their new albums (which I didn't know as well) but a lot of songs from "Gordon" and some of their earlier albums (which I knew really well.) And of course they did all this shtick that made you laugh so hard... and one of the songs in the encores was "If I had a Million Dollars." It's their franchise song, you gotta hear it at the concert, eh? That's what everyone paid for! And the last encore was "What a Good Boy" which made DH's night as it was one of his favorite songs from high school.

Oh, a funny thing happened on the way out - we saw some friends of ours from RockPointe Church who were sitting 4 rows behind us. So, we caught up with them and gave them a ride to their car at the CTrain station near our house as we had driven down. It was so nice. R spent the night with Grandma and Grandpa so I am currently still childless. I slept in to 10:30! Well, I have much that I want to get done while I am on my own, so I gotta scoot.
