Just wanted to drop a little note to let people know (those outside of Canada) about an artist some may not have heard of named Matthew Good. If you love great song writting and a strong voice, which I am sure most on this board do. I think you should check it out. He has a new album coming out that is great and the cool thing about him is that he has it online to listen to for free. So, If you have a few minutes and like to hear new artist gice it a chance. Here is his site, just have to click on the link at the top of his page. http://www.matthewgood.org/

    I'm really looking forward to hearing Vancouver. I'm not listening to the stream, but I heard some of the demos a while back and it looks like it'll be another great album.
  • I'm thrilled he's playing Massey Hall again. I missed his last show there, but was able to get tix to this one. Should be a great time!
  • Definitely a fan of his work,..Last Parade is a great song

    Tickets went on sale a week ago. The Edge 102 pre-sale sold out in 10min. The public sale didn't take much longer to sell out.

    I picked up a single for the Friday night show as I didn't realize they were on sale last week, oh well, it's in the nosebleeeds, but it is Massey Hall so every seat is sweet
