    I'm going to be there with the gf on Saturday, totally stoked. I'd have loved to go Friday too, but I couldn't afford it and I have to pick up said gf from the airport that night. Which all reminds me... I ought to figure out where the hell the Detroit Theater is.

    It's actually the Fillmore, (the old State Theatre), next to the Fox Theatre. Where they played in '07.

    Why can't the Canadians stay at home? They play a million shows up there; they ruin the shows with their insane nationalism.

    and our insane nationalism is taking away from the show? The tragically hip sings about canada in like 80% of their songs, and that doesnt bother you! that's insane nationalism to begin with. i cant believe you guys hate canadians at these shows.

    youve let me down. are we family, or what?

    Don't sweat him. Most of us don't care, but I've butted heads with nathanastin in the Moving Train and he's one of the worst types of stereotypical xenophobic Americans... nobody can have flag-waving patriotism outside of America because we're clearly the best. :roll:

    Don't put me in that classification. I love Canada and the people that come out to the shows here in Detroit. They bring an extra level of energy. My wife and I were married in Toronto and I'm a hockey nut who teaches my daughter the words to the Canadian anthem every chance I get. She's been singing the American anthem by heart since she was 2, she's almost 5 now.

    We are the Same my friend. a Family Band :)

    No judgment here, I was merely stating a fact. I love Canadians.
