Our Lady Peace x 6

     You cant get enough of a good thing, right? Our Lady Peace is one of Kristi's favourite bands (and mine) so for Valentines day / Anniversary I surprised her with tickets to the concert. The best part of this concert was the venue. They were playing at a place called Flames Central, which only holds about 350-400 people. So we were able to get close to the band on the floor.

     This was the 6th time that we have seen Our Lady Peace, and they were just as good as they were the first time we saw them. actually they were probably better. There was a great mix of old classics and new songs that have just been put out by the band. Kristi was excited for this concert because the last time we went to an Our Lady Peace concert she was about 8 months pregnant with Tyson. Raine Maida the lead singer came out into the audience and walked close to Kristi, and she went running after him like a little school girl. She quickly realized that she was pregnant and retreated her run before things started to spill out...haha.

     The venue (Flames Central) is right down town so parking was hard to find. We ended up parking in a paid parkade. After we paid we read a sign that said that cars had to be out of the parkade by midnight or we would not be able to get our car out until 5am. We were a little worried because the doors of the concert did not open until 8pm and the opening band did not go on till 9pm. The opening band played for about 45 min and then Our Lady Peace went on at 10pm. So we have 2 hours until our car was going to be stuck until 5am, which would make it a little hard to get to work in the morning. At 11:30pm Our lady Peace was still playing and I was starting to get a little worried. They left the stage at 11:40, but then came back on for a 2nd encore and played 2 more songs. The last song was a song called 4am, which was almost fitting because we would have to wait for our car till 5 if we did not get out of there in time. The last song (which was amazing) ended at about 11:55, and we were out the door running down the street to the parkade. We jumped in the car and got out of there. We left the parkade at 11:58pm, just in time to get out! Good times.

     The concert was amazing, and I had a great time at the concert with my beautiful wife. We even had a girl that was talking to us that was so shocked that we had been married 11 years, had 3 kids, and were 30+ years old. The girl thought we were only about 25 years!! Yes Kris we still got it baby!!
