    YIKES :shock:

    Hope everyone in the black out areas had a safe nite, sounds pretty horrible, people sleeping on streets in Toronto, NYC, Detroit, Ottawa :shock:

    Friend of mine is stuck in Detroit, guess The Stooges show was a no go, think it was to be their 1st show in Detroit since 1974 (Metallic KO).

    funniest comment on cnn by Wolf Blitzer (is there a better name for a news guy :lol: )…"people sleeping on the streets, it looked like a scene from a bad kevin costner movie"

    Fingers crossed they get the power up to full speed soon :!:

    I just hope they`ll let the concert go on since they`re trying to conserve energy in the New England states so it might be a big unplugged event instead :!:

    Right after soundcheck the lites went out… :(

    That had to hurt, glad it could be rescheduled for the 25th. Hopefully some of the people from out of town can stick around for the show :!:

    dark in the daytime,
    people sleep, if they want to, if they want, if they want to…
    I’m checking it out, I’ve got it figured out, I’m not the one that’s got it figured out…
