In Winnipeg? it is early, but what do you say his chances of hitting up Winnipeg during his upcoming tour? I plan on getting a shirt made that just says, "Sodamntired" so you can say "hey! you're the guy who posts on The Bored! i hate you. but I know you!"

I'm sure he'll avoid Winnipeg now if he reads your post history ;)

 

But yeah, why wouldn't he go to Winnipeg? He always goes.

[sodamntired]

I just wanted to post my idea for a shirt, if I was going to go to the Matt Good concert in Winnipeg. *guilty*

[Gomo]

When a tour is announced I'm going to see about getting tix to a show in Toronto. He always seems to put on the best shows there.

[Hyphnip]

If he doesn't play winnipeg, I'll blame you Chris! Actually, he pretty consistantly plays Winnipeg so you should be fine to go. I'm sure I'll see you there.

[noise_pollution]

He has family here and a pretty big following so he always plays here. We have gotten a bunch of multiple date tours in the past few years because of these facts. Here is a list of the Winnipeg and surrounding area shows for the last ten years:

[sodamntired]

I am so loking foward to his future Winnipeg show.

Thanks to all who replied.

[Audio of Being]

I am with Gomo I am up for another Toronto show. Last show was 2005 for me in TO, and I had a blast.

[uglyredhonda]

A couple of dates have been announced so far:

 

Nov 6 - Duncan, BC - Cowichan Theatre - www.cowichantheatre.bc.ca

Dec 7 - Peterborough, ON - Showplace Theatre - www.showplace.org

 

I'm assuming the whole tour will be posted soon (so maybe doing it piecemeal is kind of pointless).

[eclipse]

Where'd you find these? I can't find these dates on the main site.

 

Looking forward to it. I wonder if Matt is still using the same band as the last tour? I'm hoping so =)

[uglyredhonda]

BC show is on the venue's events page (scroll down the right frame). According to the website, tickets go on sale September 18th at the venue's box office.

 

Peterborough show is on the venue's announcement sheet for their Autumn/Winter schedule (PDF). However, the Peterborough sheet says it's actually on Dec 14th. An article quoting it said the 7th, so I'm not sure what's going on there.

Can you link me to the article please? Thanks for posting these ;). About to post some other dates too.

[Gomo]

Here's to hoping the Toronto date will be a weekend...

[Crusader]

It cites the venue's website, so I'm thinking the 14th is probably the correct date. (I found another PDF on the Showplace's website that has it marked as the 14th.)

I heard on 102.1 the edge in Toronto (it's also on their site) that Matt will be playing The CASBY's. October 22...could be another Toronto date around there.

[Audio of Being]

I am hoping for a Buffalo show, or something close.

[c0rl0]

when hospital music came out he played the CASBY's solo, right? now it'll be with a full band i'm assuming, which will be interesting.

 

i want a buffalo, hamilton and toronto date. and i'll be going to all three. ;)

[here is no why]

I am hoping for a Buffalo show, or something close.

 

st. catharines will get a show for sure.

Quote from the site...

Tour Dates

The Canadian leg of the tour in support of the record begins in early November and finishes in the third week of December. The tour will be announced in its entirety, so stay tuned for information about cities, venues, etc.

 

=o So he's going to do a quick tour of the US, it seems?

Sweet Toronto, Hamilton, St Kits here I come (my student loans come during that time frame mentioned) ;)

[foats]

If Matt plays the states he definitely should add Pittsburgh. There is a beautiful venue callled the Byham theatre. Would be perfect for him. Orchastra style seating as well. The hip will be playing here in October.

[Goldring]

I definitely going to try to get tickets to the Peterborough and Toronto show (when announced). It will my first Matt Good show, so I am pretty excited about it! ;)

[mostcomfortablecriminal]

Waiting for Vancouver dates (the city not the album), with the proverbial baited breath. Missed the last one, too poor.

The West End Cultural Center in Winnipeg has undergone a multi-million dollar renovation over the last year, I was fortunate enough to see The Dears perform there when I was visiting at the end of May this year. I don't know what the sound quality was before the reno, but it's crisp as hell now. An MG show would be excellent there.

 

I was at the Massey Hall show that was recorded for the live album, his vocals were drowned out half the time. It was incredible to hear the quality of the recording, night and day in my opinion. If I had my way, he'd play at Roy Thomson Hall next time he rolls through Toronto. I've never heard a cleaner sounding show anywhere else, other than Convocation Hall on U of T campus.
