@ RuAwake they may be old but they just like any other older rock band still know how to put on a killer show.

I like the Crue but, it seems like their tour bus is always parked here and they are always HERE. Let's face it - nothing really great after Dr. Feelgood so it's more an oldies show. Hit and miss live at best. I already know HUGE fans that are not going because "I'll catch them next year cause it's an annual thing".
Is it just me or is Mick Mars looking more corps like? He one of the greats but, he doesn't look well despite his treatments for his back. Hopefully he's OK.

Some of the best performances that I have seen is by the older groups. They've been around, know how to please a crowd, and are just good showmen.

Too many big concerts at MTS Centre! Where are people getting the money for all these tickets for these acts coming to town the past few years? I thought we're all supposed to be super cheap and poor! That's certainly the reputation we have anyways...
