They look like they are freezing.

They look like they are freezing.

Lot of people braving those temps there. Definitely a nice crowd there. Brrrrrrr.

[Jodes]

From what I saw they only aired like 45 mintues of DDY, (Grand Illusion, Babe, Best Of Times, Roboto, Come Sail Away) 20 Minutes of Honeymoon Suite and like 20 mintues of Loverboy.

No Glen.

Seems like Dennis was having sound problems and some voice problems in the clips I saw.

Still really cool to see him on tv!

It was aired on Ch 255 on the Bell Express View here in Canada.

I got him on channel 46 (Cable 14) here in Montreal. Very cool, yes! I taped him on my ol' VCR.

I'm glad (in a way) that it wasn't just me who thought Dennis was having problems - his earbud (I'm assuming it was an in-ear monitor?) seemed to be giving him trouble.

Looked pretty cold out there!!

That's quite a crowd for December at the Falls!! Good to see, also looked like the crowd was into his performance. Watched the other youtube clips and he's "still got it" in the pipes department. That would have been worth the drive up to see but I still can't figure out that whole passport thing.

I was a bit surprised that he didn't play 100 Years

He performed a whole concert prior to those songs shown on TV. He may have played it then.

Crowd estimates were 35-40 thousand, for the entire thing, I assume, not just the concerts.


Bugsy

Yeah, they mentioned that he had a #1 hit in Quebec, but with "editing" they went into another Styx classic.

I'm sure there will be a boot or two floating around soon enough!

I taped it and watched CSA a couple of times. Right before CSA, he asks the audience if they are ready to sing along (implying CSA was coming up). Then he says that he first wants to thank Canada because in July I had a number 1 song in Quebec... I did not see any editing there. It was smooth into CSA.

They advertised the full concert (DDY, Loverboy and some horrible band) as taking place from 8:00 to 9:30pm, with fireworks at 9:00. Was this not accurate? Were there full concerts that were not advertised?

[Jodes]

That band was the Hometown Heroes of Honeymoon Suite..

Definately NOT Horrible..

Sorry. I should have said that they just sounded poorly on TV. I know it was cold and Dennis was far from perfect but their set was not clear at all. For local guys, the crowd seemed more sparse than when Dennis was singing and not as in to it.

[Jodes]

Well I think Honeymoon Suite Kicked the night of at like 6:30 or so, then Loverboy, then Dennis probably hit the stage at 8:30, or 9pm, hence why a lighter crowd.
