Date: 2012/2/13 : Hamilton Place : Hamilton : Canada First the good stuff. Good crowd on a cold night and a nearly full theatre. Hamilton Place seats 1,500 would say there were between 1,300-1,400 there. The guys were on fire despite some problems for Mr. Glover during Strange Kind of Woman. (Finally back online with […]

Date: 2012-02-17 : TCU Place : Saskatoon : Canada Just returned from the Purple show – been a long wait since I bought the ticket… Had heard that the Canadian shows were being well reviewed – just added to the anticipation, especially seeing as this was only my second Purple show. First one was the […]
