Notes (from 5H):
Release' includes"Anthony, can you see this now?", likely a nod to Anthony
Hurley, the Australian fan lost at Roskilde three years ago. Ed first addresses
the crowd after 'GTF,' asking if the crowd would like to participate in a
survey. He realizes he hasn't said hello, says hello and is greeted with a huge
ovation of uninterrupted cheers and says it's "really" good to be here. He
wants to continue with the survey which consists of (a) not believing in the
killing of innocent people and that the threat of weapons of mass destruction
was distorted in order to get Americans to support the war or (b) "Yes, I'm an
idiot."
'Daughter' includes a hint of Pretenders' 'Brass in Pocket' ("I'm special, so
special") followed by the Ben Harper 'With My Own Two Hands' tag. 'Even Flow'
is awesome, with Mike bringing the solo down into a jazzy feel with Matt
following right along with accenting symbol hits. This totally throws Stone off
and he eventually stops trying to play anything under the solo, just looking at
Mike and laughing.
'Bushleaguer' returns to true form with Ed employing the silver jacket and
Bush mask, dancing, putting the mask on the mic stand, letting a cigarette
dangle from its lips, giving it wine and caressing it. Some forgetfulness and
creative license elicit different lyrics to 'DTE' including, "I crawled the
earth, and now I'm high. Ah something something and I sometimes forget this,
what the hell ..." and toward the end, "I am an American, baby!" A small part
of the Buzzcocks' 'Why Can't I Touch It?' is covered, with the crowd helping
out. Ed says the band has been trying to get them to play it but they
hadn't.
As usual, the crowd takes over the opening verses of 'Better Man,' but it is
extremely loud and the crowd gets going too fast with Ed trying to get it back
on track using his hands, leading to a huge cheer-filled break during the first
chorus. Ed mentions how they had discussed doing a short tour next year with
maybe just ten spots, including Toronto. "We'll cross the border for you any
time." After 'Crazy Mary,' the crowd erupts, Ed says it is now a "free-for-all"
as the band members tap their watches, aware of the early curfew. A Muppets
"Animal" doll gets tossed on stage, but they rip into a rapid versions of
'STBC' and 'RITFW.' Ed cautions, "Keely, no" (meaning, no house lights).
Returning for the second encore, Ed says, "There's three sips of wine left here
and they came from Geddy Lee so we're not leaving 'til it's done." The band
breaks into 'Baba,' which seems to be perfectly timed with huge fireworks at a
fireworks competition (at neighboring Ontario Place). Ed points them out past
the lawn while the crowd goes wild - magical.
