Nope...
We do have Men Without Hats going to Gatineau though. Weird.

Well, they're from Montreal.

 

[MXD]

Well, they're from Montreal.

Well.. yeah, but.... Gatineau. In a 250-places bar (I can barely picture 250 persons in the Minotaure, but that's another story).

But we did have Mass Hysteria coming here too, so....

Wtf... First Scott Wylan last year and now Chris Cornell. Only Eddie is left.

One of the greatest voices and frontman in music is gone. Huge loss. At least the music lives on.

Actually never heard of them. I'll check them out. Thanks

Me neither. I also don't like Tool, but figured I'd show you since Pollstar is a great site for that sort of thing

RIP Gregg Allman. I wasn't a big fan but he was a longstanding dominant figure in Southern rock.

Thanks for sharing. Lots of textured Southern blues rock and soloing in there. Visually, what is really striking is the sheer amount of equipment and how huge it was, when you compare to the minimalist set-ups of today.

This song single handily kept me sane through some very difficult things.

Thanks for that. It's my favourite Allman Brothers tune. There's been some notable covers as well. Zappa's is superb.

Allman Bros. tours were always heavy on gear and players. I cut my musical teeth on British blues and it easily extended to the US.
