On Wednesday, we played a show in Cambridge, ON.
My goodness, was it ever hot that night. Wow.
The hottest shows I ever play are always in Cambridge. It always just works out that way. Despite the temperature, we had a great show. I felt really great about it.
The best part was in "Won't Back Down", where I get the crowd the separate and tell the right side to scream, and then the left side to scream, back and forth, etc. These kids were there to throw-down! I respect their enthusiasm but ... you know ... Hello Kelly's not a metal band.
BUT, we all appreciate metal music and love that scene. And it was an honour that these kids wanted to get down to business to our poppy music. So, after both sides had screamed back and forth a bit, I ordered them to face their opposing sides as if it were an enemy army ... and ... on the count of 3 ... charge at them, screaming, violently and throw'r'down.
Well, they did. And I'm pretty sure I heard a Braveheart inspired "FREEDOM" battle cry. It was inspiring.
Nobody was hurt either. Bonus.
Later that night, I was eating at Crabby Joe's and a couple $20's fell out of my pocket and someone stole them. Lame.
Can't win 'em all! Sigh.
TOMORROW - we're playing at Wonderland with Hawk Nelson, Thousand Foot Krutch, Relient K and MercyMe. If you're not going already, you might not be able to plan it ... but if you feel like a great show and going on some rides, GOOGLE Canada's Wonderland, find the address and make it happen.
The weather's supposed to be amazing and we're on at 3.
If you don't live in Central/Southern Ontario, then just wish us luck!
Thanks again for listening!
