On cloud 9 !!! Yes, the 54-40 Olympic show was AMAZING crazy fun! Huge thanks to Kris for saving me the best seat in the house!! FRONT ROW CENTER!! Ohh yeaaaaa babyy! And to Karen and her son Andy for picking me up and thanks to the hookers on King George and 78th for not stealing my car! (or using it as a hotel) SO got to the venue, being Olympics there were TONS of cops and security, we were carrying Big Gulp cups full of Vodka and 7 (LOLZ) Went through security (no line-up) they looked through my purse, but no pat down and no making me throw out my drink!!! So were like !GREAT! as we had already we pounded half of our drinks back before gettin in " just in case ". We were feeling no pain right from the start! We walked around a bit, the USA vs Canada hockey game was just starting, so we wandered around then found the "Surrey House" which was the venue/beer gardens (AGAIN SWEET!) We watched Canada lose to the USA (while drinking wine coolers and beers AND vodka) but that was ok because WHO CARES 54-40 is coming on soon!! Kris saved me a spot while I hit the can, I owe her big time! Then The Odds came on and they were REALLY REALLY fun and hyper, great band too check them out ASAP. They Rocked us to a frenzy (hetero-sexual man) and then 54-40 came on!!!
54-40 started playing and you could hear that Dave's guitar was shrill and too loud and Neil's mic wasn't loud enough, but after 2 songs Boink (sound guy) had the sound all figured out and it sounded wonderful!! It was a large tent filled with 2500 people! Yes a MASSIVE tent, and when they got it all adjusted it was CRANKED loud and the guys were in a good mood! Neil got everyone to chant GO CANADA GO while they were playing Nice to love you and it sounded really good! Fit right in totally, good one Neil!! It was the same setlist as usual so far, all the hits and Walkin down the line and The Chant thrown in. I can't wait til they play the whole Green Album at the next shows! SPECTACULAR!! So hmm this is getting long, but it was a great time, top 3 for sure of all the 54-40 show's I've been too!! My only suggestion is bounce around more and smile Dave!! The Odds were so energetic, it really got the crowd going!! Come on 54-40!! Youthful Vigor baby!! Fake it til ya make it boys!! I just love that Band!!! 54-40, mud racing and poker, my 3 fave things!!
