Opener.

[mwm]

so i have seen a few matt good tours. who is the best band to open for him?

 

i am going to say the dears..and not pilate or however they spell it.

[bobbyshane]

I wouldn't know... I live in the States... must be nice to see Matt live... stupid states...

Back in the summer of 2001 Copywrite and Treble Charger opened for Matthew Good Band, that was pretty good.

 

Although Wil seriously rocked the place, so I'm going to go with him on the 2004 WLRRR tour. Ladies and Gentleman were a close second, but Wil was something I could have never imagined. His performance on an acoustic blew my mind.

[Nearfantastica]

I agree. I've seen Matt play various tours over the past eight years or so, and Wil was absolutely amazing. Worth the price of admission on his own.

[EdJim]

Add another one for Wil. Certainly earned the "Ibreakstrings" in his email addy. ;)

[laser30]

Add yet another one for Wil, my dad came with me to Matt's show on the WLRRR tour and he was more blown away by Wil than by Matt. I saw Matt again this year and wasnt a big fan of the ladies and gentlemen

[Gallick]

Tie between Melissa Auf Der Maur and the Ladies and Gentlemen.

[Scotty33]

Yeah I would Definitely say Wil was amazing, for all you

 

who were there "SHIT YEAH"

[Prometheon]

I've only seen him onve; when he was with Limblifter and they put on a decent show.

[Gob]

Gob opened for MGB (/w Moist) back in the day. They were tubular.

[Russell]

I also have to go with Wil.

[no yu begin wher i end]

Fuckin' Wil! ;)

[strummer]

Big Wreck was awesome when they played Blues Fest in ottawa.

[ToadMan]

Anybody see Zuckerbaby open for MGB back in the day?

 

Recently though, I would have to also go with Wil.

[jesusinc]

Gob opened for MGB (/w Moist) back in the day. They were tubular.

Gob and MGB were both opening for Moist. Saw them in Kitchener, t'was great.

[Sim]

I never saw Wil (the show was canceled) in montreal, but Mobile opened twice for Matt and they are pretty good: http://mobiletheband.com

 

There is an audio player, See Right Through Me and Bleeding Words are awesome

Limblifter was great. So were Ladies and Gentlemen. Those are the only two I've seen, but I'd go with Limblifter.

[Shortcut To Moncton]

The Ladies And Gentlemen were so fucking boring.

[umboula]

The Dears, Pilate, The Ladies and Gentlemen, Sloan, and Wil were all awesome openers.

 

Mmm... awesome...

[Gob]

Hasn't Metric opened for MG?

[Vance]

Anyone remember Andy Stechanski (spelling's probably wrong). He was my favourite with Wil as a close second.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen sucked.

[Nearfantastica]

The Ladies and Gentlemen reminded me of Ross from friends, sending out "waves" on his keyboard...

 

I felt like they wouldn't be out of place at a Star Trek Convention, and while I don't wholly oppose Star Trek Conventions, that type of music just isn't my thing.

 

That said, Pat saved the day when he came out with the Cowbell and did a perfect Will Ferrell dance (this was in Calgary. I don't know if he did it elsewhere).

[Shortcut To Moncton]

Matthew Good Band were good as OPENERS for I Mother Earth in 1999.

[babyskintattoo]

didnt moist sort of open up for them in the edge electric christmas...... but aside from that the dears and pilate were wicked openers

[deremac]

only show ive seen was ladies and gentlemen and they were pretty good, the keyboarding was pretty cool stuff.
