Very few bands can pull off an authentic live performance these days. The best I ever witnessed live were Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stone Temple Pilots and Tea Party.

6 Bands Making A Mockery Of Miming

As if collaborating with Bruno Mars wasn’t inviting enough of a backlash, Red Hot Chili Peppers performed without their instruments plugged in during their cameo in Sunday’s Superbowl half-time spectacle, fuelling angry accusations on social media that the band were – shock horror – miming. Yes...

Does she have a show next Saturday as well? The Leafs won't play on next Saturday for some reasons.

Next Thursday Friday Saturday as well.
Sold out the Dome for 6 nights and easily could have sold more.

My two cents on Taylor Swift. She is great and a major star. But the audacity to give her a motorcade from Pearson to the Rogers Centre in a city that is already congested as is with traffic hell is beyond my comprehension.

Is she the Pope? She can't sit in a tinted SUV in traffic? They had to close off the one major artery going into downtown Toronto for her?

I get that she has tons of (crazy) fans who are capable of tracking her jet and her whereabouts. But you gotta work around that.

I saw at least 6 SUVs and 4 cops on Harleys.

They do that all the time for politicians celebrities etc. Personally I don’t see the issue, maybe disrupted traffic for a minute.
If she came up Spadina off the Gardiner for example and someone recognized her that would cause absolute chaos on the streets.

I remember reading that Christina Aguilar has it in her rider that she gets a police escort from the airport. I just hope its the promoter that pays for that and not the taxpayers.

Would be nice to get some points out of this one, but Edmonton is a good team and we're missing some good forward pieces. The loss of Matthews/Patches makes the absence of Jarnkrok even more evident, pretty much 3 top 9 forwards out for us

We will need Stolarz and special teams to carry us to a win

Or a full committed defensive effort to block out McJesus and Drycycle. Easier said than done though.

Everything about Swift is manufactured. She is an industry plant. Completely astroturfed.

AC/DC

Angus Young is timeless.

The opening guitar to Dirty Deeds, blaring live and in concert, is always breathtaking.

Metallica and AC/DC are easily the best concerts I’ve ever been to.

Biggest disappointment was The Rolling Stones. Great music, and Mick is a good showman, but I left feeling like it came in under what I expected.

I get what you are saying but Toronto traffic is screwed from the distracted and idiotic drivers on the highway who can’t slow down, lack common sense and no driving etiquette.

Every hour of every day, the 401 is littered with accidents that have nothing to do with inclement weather and all based on people driving while on their phones and being selfish SOBs.

It's definitely gotten worse over the years.

Looking back decades, small venue bands that could take requests and perform live music and it be respectable. Having tried my hand at music, but going to high school and working 30-35 hours a week in a grocery store didn't encourage me to practice bass, other than be good enough on tuba to be in a military band (volunteer - not their professional band).

Music is perhaps the only "art" that I feel any emotional attachment to. Been to the national gallery in London, England and thought "okay so they got paintings", big deal. One Stratford performance in the early 80's left me and the audience speechless for a long pregnant pause before applause and cheering. But other than that Music is the thing.

Have to ask, has to era of the lead guitarist passed?


=================================================

I frequently see the Oilers give up the lead late in games.

Of course, they then win on cheat mode in overtime.

Leafs probably have better goaltending.
Defense, perhaps better depth on Leafs, but not sure better talent?
