waterloo/london

we might as well have been living in LA yesterday.

We are staying with our friend Joe in Waterloo, and he has a magnificent house with plenty of room for us all, a gorgeous back yard (with a pool - even though it wasn't available for use just yet) and an undying amount of hospitality.

we spent the majority of the day reading outside, building and jumping on a trampoline, eating barbecue and - at one point - listening to our own cd (joe's mom wanted to hear it) through the stereo system that allowed us to hear the music throughout not only the whole house, but outside.

ridiculous.

our show last night was in london, at a place called The Alex P. Keaton. It wasn't terrible, but it definately was the worst show of the tour so far. the power to one entire side of the stage (including the vocals, and matt, aaron and andrew's amp) was knocked out twice. we mustered through it quite well actually, at one point turning the last verse of turn of the world into a complete acapella band sing-a-long. it was actually pretty friggen cool.

we also discovered that we lost an entire bag of tshirts which SUPER sucks - we think we left them in montreal, so we're trying to call the venue.

the crowd at the alex p. wasn't huge, but the people who were there were quite receptive. my friend jacqueline came out to see us, and our old friend Peter Mansbridge and the CBC's (I think is real name is Harry) came out.

we ended up coming back to Joe's to spend the nite again, and Joe's in the process of cooking us pancakes.

we're off to toronto in about an hour.
