Last night was amazing! That was definately the best Matt Good concert I’ve ever been to. I was also very impressed by Melissa McClelland. Her performance was excellent and she even went back up with Matt to perform a duo at the end. We lucked out and got some pretty sweet seats right in front of the stage. I think we were about 15 feet away, look at the pictures.

As you can see from my last post I got to meet Matt after the concert. I was so damn nervous. When it came time to talk to him I couldn’t spit out the words. I got my Loser Anthems B-Sides and Rarities promo disc signed, it’s one of the rarest Matt Good item I have (still haven’t found Lo-Fi B-Sides EP). On my way out of his bus I turned around and thanked him for the xmas gift (signed picture of him and Jenny) and told him I was Paul from paulyblog.com. He remembered who I was at that point. Then I shook his hand and told him it was nice to finally meet him. Don’t ask me why I shook his hand, I know he hates shaking hands, he’s mentioned it in a podcast or online at one point before but I was nervous as hell and forgot. I’m sorry Matt. Don’t worry though, I’m not sick.

Not only did I get to meet Matt Good, I also got to meet Lauren White a.k.a. Raymi. My friend Ashley mentioned Raymi was on tour with Matt so I checked her blog to see if she was going to be in North Bay. On her blog it only showed the Kingston, Waterloo and Ottawa show so I e-mailed her to see if she was going to North Bay. By the time I got to the hotel Ashley messaged me saying Raymi was going to be at the show. About 5 minutes after that I got an e-mail from Raymi saying she was already in North Bay so I told her I would see her at the show. When Matt hit the stage I saw Raymi off to the side of the stage. During Matt’s encore I managed to get there and introduced myself. She’s really down to earth and nice to talk to. She’s awesome (and better link me to her website)! We talked for a while and she told us if we wanted to get anything signed to meet her in the back by the tour bus. It was really nice to meet you Raymi and thanks for the info. That made my day.

I uploaded a few of the many pictures I took. Enjoy!

I’m so excited!!  Tomorrow at 1PM sharp I am leaving for North Bay where I will see Matthew Good live at The Wall.  For those of you who don’t know, Matthew Good is my favorite artist.  His music is great, he is creative and he is Canadian!  The last time I saw Matthew Good was in April 2003 at the Metropolis in Montreal.  That was the best concert I ever went to, except the fact that I got a speeding ticket on the way there (140km/h in a 90km/h).  Tonight I’m packing a travel bag, recharging the batteries in my digital camera and trying to think of the songs he will sing tomorrow night!

I will post the pictures when I get back on Friday.

Fun, Life, Matt Good, Music

It’s official, we are going to see Matthew Good in North Bay on April 6th.  The tickets were on sale this morning.  I managed to get 2 of them (Jenn and I).  Jenn is booking a room in North Bay for that night.  We both got the afternoon of the concert off to drive there and the next morning off to drive back.  I am stoked! (even more so than the Sens game next month)
