Jaimoe Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 One of the best "throwback" hard rock bands playing that small room will be incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted May 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 couldn't snag any tickets at ticketmaster, but you never know, they could become available.On a not-related-at-all note, check out this triple-bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzyjeff Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 I just saw this on TM and wish I had heard about it sooner.I wanted to go to hamilton but won't pay $50 plus SC to see them in an arena. I think I might pay that much to see them at the Elmo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzyjeff Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 That's funny ADThat would definitely fit the post about the strangest billing.I saw Trooper way back at Rock and Roll Heaven in TO, long after their prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phishtaper Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 we went to see them last night at Copps and Josh Homme (lead singer / guitarist) said the crowd at the ElMo the night before in TO was awful. the crowd in the hammer was totally into the show, complete with small slamosh pit and loads of surfers. we decided at the last minute to head down from guelph to see if we could grab a pair of (sold-out) GA floors outside, but instead ended up getting an incredible pair of 10th row front/side stage tix, obviously production seats, released the day-of. really fun show. a bunch of songs from the new CD - 3's&7's, Misfit Love, Turnin' on the Screw, Sick, Sick, Sick - as well as some great old ones like Little Sister, No One Knows and Burn the Witch. Over 90 minutes. One last show in Ottawa tonight. Go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
