Also, the giant heaters beside the guitarist, bassist and drummer were a wonderful ploy to try and fool you as well. Thank goodness your skills of investigative musical criticism has been put to good use on the CalgaryPuck forums to discriminate against bands that represent something that you just simply can't understand.
I said it before, and even though it WAS a poor performance, I'll still say it again - I give major kudos to the programmers for booking bands that represent Canadian music that aren't in the vain of Nickelback influenced bs. Clearly, this is an area of the country that needs this sort of help.

I didn't even think it was that bad of a perfomance really. Maybe it could have been better, but it wasn't terrible. The first minute seemed shakey, but I thought they picked it up as it went on and they got comfortable.
