Blissed

I went to the Blissed show at 24/7 in Burlington Friday night - pretty sure I was the oldest there by quite a bit :)
I really enjoyed the show - I knew Blissed was good (from their CD's) but was impressed with how professional they were live.
Excellent presentation - lighting, stage presence, sound (thank God for ear plugs).

I was surprised by how quiet the crowd was though. Most folk just sat & listened.
I expected people would be more into it than they appeared to be.
Maybe its just a Canadian thing.

In the United States this type of music is served up alive and kicking like a freshly caught fish. It excites the crowd and they are carried away in a frenzy.

Here, we take that freshly caught fish, alive and kicking, and clean it, cook it and serve it up with a side order of tofu. Only in Canada, eh!

Yep, in the U.S. they are bad. We, on the other hand, get excited when we near the state of being naughty.

That's because it was in Burlington. Hamiltonians would be more lively. I know, I grew up there. It's full of conservatives and their conservative children. Did they not have a mosh pit?
