Very good album.
When I saw Sam Roberts play here in LA last year (or was it two years ago?), Matt Mays came out and played during the encore. It was a cool surprise.
Joel Plaskett is from NS too.....
Sam Roberts, now that's one I need to see.
Matt Mays is incredible, and the performance was so energetic. It was great to see someone get so into their music, a lot of live shows aren't as intense as Matt tends to be.
I actually saw Plaskett this past Monday night. We're hosting the 2011 Canada Games here in Halifax, so they've been doing free concerts every night this week and continuing next week.
Plaskett was Monday as I said - he was really awesome and managed to improvise an entire song when he forgot the lyrics to his own
Sloan played Tuesday, but I had to miss them. They're a childhood favourite, so I really would have liked to go.
Hey Rosetta! was Wednesday and it was the single most energetic and musically-intensive show I've ever been to. Loved them.
Matt was last night, and like I said - phenomenal.
Tonight is Hawksley Workman and tomorrow is Great Big Sea. I'll have to miss both due to work, unfortunately.
And next week nothing really great happens until Saturday, when City & Colour plays. I'm expecting greatness from that.
