Anyway, we're still friends and she was equally excited. So we found ourselves, on the hottest day of the year (decade?) crammed into a standing-room only venue with about 1400 other crazies. we were exhausted, dehydrated and surrounded by equally sticky people. We didn't care. When they took the stage, we were freaking out like we were seventeen-year-olds again! Lost my voice somewhere between Save Me and Temptation.
When it was all over, my jelly legs barely made it to the parking lot. Only later did I realise that there was no Babylon. I think they may have been saving this for the second encore that never came. it was hot; I can't really blame them.
The drive home took almost 2 hours though - the Gardiner on-ramps were ALL closed. I think with the lack of water, the heat and and the ridiculous traffic at 1am, i may have wandered to the edge of madness - thankfully AnCe was there to keep me tethered.
Awesome night!

Dude, it I had been in TO, I so would have joined you and become a lust-crazed 17-yr-old again... So happy for you and sad for me.
Oh, you would have loved it. Those guys re still in top form and it was fantastic belting out some of my fave songs ever. Perhaps next time, you can come down just for a concert? :)
I just wish there was better prices on flights but I might just have to consider it! J just doesn't understand what all the fuss is about!
My fave song hands down is Sun's Going Down.
Nice pick!
My favourites are Psychopomp and Babylon :)
