Jonquière gig last night! Wow, I'm still psyched. It rained, I was wet, cold and happy! Most people didn't care. I got out of the house so quick that I forgot to put my coat on. Fortunately, I had an umbrella in my minivan. That's so metal. The guys were amazing, and it seemed very special for them to be back in their hometown, just kicking ass. Snake made a special hello to their moms in the VIP section, and was pretty funny for all the show. Dan (Mongo?) pretty much nailed to perfection all the Piggy parts, which didn't stop him from rocking like crazy! Away sounded like a nuclear war, even with The Smallest Drumkit Known To The Universe! And Blacky was his badass self, throwing (or spitting) water to the crowd, flipping the bird, and killing that Blower Bass like a maniac. I was SO happy to hear the Blower Bass; it went pretty well with the two Infini songs they did (which went well in the setlist of oldies). Thumbs up to the Mop Guy, too! He was there to dry up the stage, and got mocked up a bit by Snake... Anyway, setlist, from memory, and in (mostly) incorrect order: Voivod Unknown Knows The Prow Ravenous Medicine Overreaction Treasure Chase Global Warning Panorama (with a nod to Jean-Marc E. Roy, who was filming from the stage) Tribal Convictions Tornado Brainscan Nothingface Nuclear War Astronomy Domine (encore) I may have forgotten one or two... EDIT: I forgot to say it was Dan's birthday! Snake got the crowd to sing happy birthday! So Happy birthday, Dan, if you read this! Also, Snake sang "I'm a poor lonesome cowboy" when a cowboy hat almost landed on his head. He picked it up from the floor and sang it.

You can feel that they made many shows and are on the top of their game. Blacky is still aging backward! I saw that Speed Demon was part of the road crew!
Cool! It was great watching Blacky being so snotty, he looked like a kid! Snake was pretty funny too.
