Today has been one of those days where it clicked. Allow me to recap the last six hours of it.
In the afternoon the new song from The White Stripes Icky Thump was released to the airwaves and I was able to get my hand on a digital copy where I listened to it over and over again.
It took a few listens but I got into it and the return of guitars have be excited for this record.
As I got in my car Sonic started playing Icky Thump and I rolled the windows down and enjoyed a beautiful drive home with a fantastic song.
While waiting for an early release of Lost to finish download I checked a White Stripes message board for details on their Canadian tour and there were dates posted!
Obviously traveling to Yukon or Northwest Territories is not feasible but the local ones are. To see the whole tour click here. But the following is what I have in mind.
June 29, 2007
The Pengrowth Saddledome
Calgary, ABJune 30, 2007
Shaw Convention Center
Edmonton, ABJuly 1, 2007
TCU Place
Saskatoon, SKJuly 2, 2007
MTS Centre
Winnipeg, MB
Obviously I will be going Calgary and Edmonton, but Saskatoon and Winnipeg are tempting. If you are going to Saskatchewan, you might as well go to Manitoba, right?
I am filled with utter excitement. And in an hour Vancouver starts their series against Anaheim. I don’t care what they say Wednesday, you do rule!
