I'm really really hoping that he decides to release Lucia as a bonus track soon. It's by far my favorite song by him and it's a shame it didn't make it on the album.

I loved seeing that song live when I first saw it. If you buy the deluxe version of his album there is already two bonus songs and it isn't it... :(

I didn't like the selection of tickets an hour into the presale, so we'll see what happens tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the tip! That actually fits into the boy's schedule, too. :)

I sent in my request for the band bench.
Not sure when I find out if I got them though. :?

I'd just like to say that that was the quickest, smoothest ticketing process I've yet to experience. :shock:

I'm not just referring to 10C ticketing issues, I'm including Ticketmaster, the byzantine New York Philharmonic website (You think "Oops! You ripped our face off!" is bad? Try, uh, investing in season tickets to NYPhil only to have the system repeatedly freak out and screw up your order.), theater websites, small clubs/venues, etc. I'm impressed.

Alright, I spent a lot of time on YouTube last night listening to his Frames stuff and was blown away. I just bought a ticket for his Toronto show. Hopefully I'll have a good view from my second-row aisle seat :D .

Yay! Glen is amazing in anything he does (Frames, Swell Season, solo) and anytime you have a chance to see him live, see him!!! :mrgreen:

Can I hold you personally accountable if I'm disappointed?

I really doubt that could happen, but still...

He has a song called disappointed. that might be the only disappointed you'll encounter on the night :)
and even that's unlikely 'cos he rarely plays it solo :)

So you're saying there's very little chance of getting disappointed that night, eh?
