hey everybody... does anyone recognize the guy in the gray coat with the camera? he appears at about 36 seconds in. I recognized him as soon as I saw him at the show, but can't place him for the life of me!

Thanks for sharing the video!

Hey, yeah you seem about right. Except at the very beginning of the chorus it goes "It's Dreamland, the kids are alright, and the sky is blue", it's not "can this be right".

Also why the fuck did Hinder close? That made no sense at all

Hinder = suck.
They are too preoccupied with high school girls who are incredibly popular but don't feel loved. Wah. Go cry me a river.

Yeah, I assume it was just the ignorant adults who organized the concert that thought Hinder was "cool" and "hip" and that OLP was "old" or something. When Hinder came out after OLP the crowd was chanting "OLP! OLP! OLP!". HAHA! Hinder is lame. Nickelback-style lame.

Also, they have only have one album... They should have to earn a headlining spot like that. And lolz, AMC gave "Extreme Behavior" 1.5 stars. I read through some of their lyrics.. those songs are God awful. It's sad when you're a rip-off of a band that's already a rip-off (Nickelback). Phailure.

i came across this blog of some person who was at the sound check and will try to post the pics here http://seedyapartment.livejournal.com/743132.html

Our Lady Peace's soundcheck, which we happened to catch, since we were at the grounds at 2pm. shirethief is to be credited with this one, she's obsessive and made me go. Good call, because Raaaaaaaaaine Maide is gorrrrrgeous.

The actual Our Lady Peace show: we had a pretty smashing spot to stand, since we were there so fricken early.

Hello happy trail!

Seriously though, there ARE other people in the band...

really?!?!

Kathy · Post by **Kathy** » 7/3/2008, 3:51 pm

that last picture... with all the security guys and Raine looking over them. That's when the rail completely unlatched and busted open and we almost got crushed. The guys brought out sledgehammers and slammed/pushed/pulled the thing back into place.

And it continued to separate and need security intervention for the entire rest of the show :\

And that big dude with his hand up to his face... he's the one who was almost the cause for Kathy's death-by-blubber obituary!

Tattooed Angels · Post by **Tattooed Angels** » 7/3/2008, 5:49 pm

That next to last photo of Raine.. Where his hands are up in the air. Is is possible he gained some baby weight also.. MUAH>.

yes there are other members. That one of all of them is cool..

crustine · Post by **crustine** » 7/3/2008, 6:01 pm

its funny that you say that gail cause that was my reaction when i saw it. but i saw it in his arms

i do like the group sound check shot a lot.

Hey Kathy, did Jer have his hair pulled back or is it cut?

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 7/3/2008, 6:06 pm

Steve looks like that dude from SNL.

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 7/4/2008, 1:28 am

Just thought I'd add that I think both Steve and Duncan's hair looks much better the way they had it at the concert—Steve's shorter and Duncan's longer.

On listening to "Dreamland" again and again on the Facebook link, it's growing on me. I think it's pretty cool. Post-Gravity feel, sure, but the song has much more of a likeability than any HIPT song to me (and most Gravity songs), and I dunno...it might even classify as being "in between" SM and Gravity.
