I heard that Metric was playing in Fredericton at the University, and enquired, but it was a private party.
I can't remember the details, but tickets were definitely NOT for sale to non-students.
Maybe one of those contests where you 'win' a concert, who knows.

Here is a YouTube link to a clip claiming to be from the Aitken centre at STU/UNB show in Nov 2010:

The comments under the clip indicate it was a free show... argh

IOU done at the tour opener in Chicago?!?!?! Can't find any video.

I have mixed feelings on the rest of the set. Why skip Governess and bring back so-so songs from Synthetica/Fantasies?

setlist.fm must be a typo with Lie Lie Lie opening in other cities in 2015 and missing completely in Chicago.

So the current setlist only has Empty/Monster as the pre-Fantasies songs done in full. Personally the only ong I'm looking forward to is Jimmy doing Other Side.

Joshua is coming out with a solo album called MMXX

The only song on his soundcloud was posted a year ago, surprised none of us caught wind of it at all.

Paul Bley died. He was a family friend of the Haines and did some albums with Paul Haines.

Looks like Metric will be performing in New Brunswick in September at the Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival. More information and tickets available on Wednesday May 11.
So, are they more jazz or blues? Or just hipsters. hmm.

[scribbleyguy]

So I have purchased tickets to the Fredericton show! yayy!
And Stars is opening for them, double YAYY~

Wait, is there anyone left in the Forum to applaud? Helllooo???

Can you please tap on the pipes or stomp on the floor if you're in the building? Anyone???

Thought I'd check in.

Might see metric when they do a festival on Vancouver island this summer if I feel like spending $120-150+ on it.

Canadian tour closing show by metric in Vancouver had a 24 camera video crew including 3 cranes.

I day ticket is 60-70. The rest are the incidentals like the 2 hour ferry ride both ways to Vancouver Island.
