The Barenaked Circus Debacle

From the "How could we of known" Dept.

So I went to the "Barenaked Circus" Concert at the Molson Amphitheatre with Jen, Natasha, Cris, Mae, Jamie, Karim and Sarah.

The tickets said 4pm, so we arrived at the gates at 3:10pm, lined up and went in.

The concert did start at 4pm, but it wasn't the Barenaked Ladies. We were like, okay, cool, it's just the opening act.

The band ended playing a full 40-minute set.

Three bands after the first act, at 9:30pm, the Barenaked Ladies finally played. The concert ended at 11:00pm.

Okay, I was disappointed. Jen and I both had work to do, and we had expected the concert to end at around 6:30p. Jen was suppose to go into work. I wanted to finish off stuff for next week.

That didn't happen.

Natasha missed her bus back to Guelph.

Even thought BNL gave a great show, it was tainted by my overall dissatisfaction of the four mediocre bands that played.

To add insult to injury, I still didn't have a chance to go running, I had to eat McDonald's for Dinner, and Natasha lost the clothes that she had purchased at the Eaton's Centre.

Man, I'm trying to get healthy but things like this suck.

Cheers,

Tai

BNL was supposed to perform at my high school when I was in grade 9...the lead singer's younger brother went to Vaughan =) but they never made it - the event got cancelled. We didn't know who they were anyway, but it's too bad just the same. Sorry to hear about your experience with the pre-bands.
