I'm from Mississauga too.

I feel so alone...I've yet to find a person on this forum who's going to the show at Molson this July. In fact, none of my friends like Metric either...

Well I went to Ontario Place with my school today and the stadium was a lot smaller than I expected.

Bypassing the personal info, but...

Ever seen Metric live?: Yes! They were my "first" and I will always love them for that.
Favourite Metric song(s): I don't really have one anymore. "The List" was my favorite for a long time, though.
LEAST favourite Metric song(s): Does "Standing In Line" count?
Other musical interests: The same old ones.
Last concert attended: The Depreciation Guild + Wild Nothing. Really good!
Next concert you're attending: The New Pornographers + The Dodos + The Dutchess and the Duke.
Anything else?: I'm pretty sure I was the person who started the original Intro thread/wrote these questions.... I don't know why I thought I could just decide to spell everything with an "ou" like I'm not from the US.

[scnadams]

Oh wow, The Dodos! That'll be brilliant =)

Welcome to the forums 102190, setoutrunning & nakuu.

I was thinking about getting tickets when it was annouced but the $50 for floors was better spent elsewhere. Of all the times I've seen Metric, a big outdoor venue was the least impressive.. but still.. now that it's coming up...
I wish I was going.

Hi Josh : ) Welcome to the foruuuum. I like how you put Stars in there twice. Probably not intentional but Stars definitley deserve ALL the love.

[PlasticMuscles]

Woops damn me getting distracted by shiny things, I wrote that replied to a message then came back to finish it plus the foil didn't help.
Stars deserve double love anyways .

[EvanEtrics]

Josh, you have the BEST username ever. Just sayin'.

[bluelight]

Welcome Josh! I'm Kathy.

My friend is in love with Japanese Love Letter or something like that by The Bird and The Bee.

[PlasticMuscles]

Thanks for being so welcoming you guys

I think the song may have been Love Letter To Japan, which is a brilliant song by the way.
