Please stop with the lame "eh" jokes. Yes, we say it, but not at the end of every sentence.
I was at the Sloan/Apostle of Hustle/Duhks concert. How did you have a bad time? I agree with the other posters that recommend seeing badns you know. I'm usually much more reserved when hearing/seeing a band for the first time. I've seen Sloan and AoH twice now, and thought they were great each time.
That being said, my hands-down favorite live band is C'Mon. I've seen them seven times in two years, and haven't been disappointed yet. My hands have been sore from clapping so much, and I still tell people how the bass player threatened death on the entire audience if we didn't have a shot of Jager with her.
If Alfredsson was going to get a suspension, it probably would have been handed out by now.
I'd also be interested to hear King's (or anyone's) take on Don Cherry's comments regarding the introduction of the instigation rule as a reaction to curb fighting to please American audiences. Grapesis always a great source of insightful and buffoonic comments, but we in Canada love him anyway.
