Burnt Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 ...horrible way to play a city for the first time.This isn't their first show in Toronto, they played that SCI festival at the Docks a couple of years back. Unless you meant their first full length solo show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deranger Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Maaaannnnnnnn...... I have been waiting since that way-too-short set at Big Summer Classic for UM to have their own show here in Toronto.I remember hearing somewhere from someone that they played Lee's Palace here in TO waaaayyy back in the early days, but I have never seen (or read) that confirmed.Anyway, considering the bands from the states that do make it up here, we should all be happy Umphrey's are finally coming for their own show. It's been too long a wait for such and increidble fucking awesome band to play here. IMO - Umphrey's McGee, as a band, do shit that no other group out there can do. I have never heard a group play so tight; do so many time, key, and rhythm shifts, improvise using hand signals. Group imrov like that exists in many forms, but delivered so well is a rare mother-fuckin treat. Umphreys fucking rocks, thank you for whoever finally brought them to TO. Its about fuckin time.
