Review:

    Tonight's show was very very emotional! Set one started very slow with a small crowd - Stephen Emery kicked it off with a powerful set including fan favourite CUL DE SAC RUT. Then Matt sang and Stephen played guitar for Hedwig and the Angry Inch's MIDNIGHT RADIO.
    Set one started with a rare performance of WORTH HIS WHILE by Matt, followed by a gorgeous version of GRACIOUS with Christopher on the drums. Tara Taylor was a powerhouse tonight with her original material! Kacie was lovely as usual, Rose Record joined Matt on 2NITE and it was very beautiful. John Henville returned from Japan just to do a beautiful performance of FOREST BOOGIE!
    The highlight of the night was Matt & Kacie doing the encore of PURPLE RAIN - it was a very emotional and powerful performance - the surrounding circumstances made it even more so.
