Montreal, Quebec, Canaduh

In honor of the Canaduh flag, the Canaduh pages are red and white....


So anyway, we hauled ass for Canaduh... We were detained at the Canaduhian border for 2 hours as we tried to understand this lady speaking French to us... Gaah, people... join tha real world....the rest of Canaduh speaks English.... mebbe you should learn, too..... no WONDER they wanted to secede.... Fortunately, Steph, the band's DJ, spoke fluent French, as did CeeCee, Baldur the manager's girlfriend.... (she's a Canaduhian/Icelandic mix....exotic...(laughs))... We FINALLY got to Montreal, an absolutely beautiful city, and played at some dive in downtown ( Soma it was called).... I couldnīt stand looking at the house lighting guy.... he had 3 foot long dreadlocks (they look bad enough on the homeboys, but on white people, are REALLY disgusting), piercings everywhere, and spoke little English... I couldn't understand a fuckinī word he said, not to mention that I couldnīt HEAR him, he spoke so quietly... hereīs a clue, people.... guys with French accents are FAGS.... girls with French accents are irresistible....... yep..... I seem to have developed a thing for little French girls after flirting with two cute lil French Canaduhian girls while we were waiting for the broken down generator on the bus to be repaired (again)(KILL THE BUS DRIVER!).... They wanted to hear me say all the words I knew in French, but I wasn't sure they wanted to hear 'menage a trois'.....(laughs). Learned a little lesson about Canaduian money and how greedy those Canuck fucks are, too..... After showing at the hotel, I hit the local Dunkin Donuts. The stuff was reasonably priced, even in American dollars. But, being in Canaduh, the prices were in Canadhuian dollars, of which I had none.... SO, they offered to take my American money, with NO EXCHANGE rate..... Now... Canaduian bucks are worth 60 cents on the dollar to American bucks..... LIKE HELL I'm going to pay 3 bucks for a second rate donut!!! Luckily for me, Baldur and Ceecee walked in, and he fronted me some Canaduian bucks...well.. I gave him 20 American bucks, and he gave me 20 Canaduhian bucks, with a promise to make up the difference later..... I fell asleep on the bus after slamming the donuts, and didnīt wake up until we got to Toronto...
Technically speaking

The Pearl manual says it will run any and all intelligent fixtures....hmmm...Someone needs to tell ClayPaky to get with the program....the Pearl WOULD NOT run the two Golden Scans they had in the ceiling at Soma.... No matter what I tried.... So... We went with 6 I-Beams on the floor... The poor opening guys were tripping over my cables, since the stage was rather small.... The sound guys absolutely drooled over the Turbosound system Soma had.... You hear that, Bob? Someone wants your Turbos......(laughs)

On to Toronto!
