In this video Calgary welcomes Shad back to Canada by filling up the lawn right in front of the stage. I bet after the set, they were asking for an encore, like we did in Vancouver.
Finally, after a long time of not being able to go to any of Shad's performances in the past, due to age restrictions of the venues, I was able to catch this one. Although this was a short set, Shad was able to engage the crowd and build up the energy very quickly. The location of the stage was really bad too - almost hidden. Despite these hindrances, I can safely say that everyone who witnessed Shad's display enjoyed every bit of it.
I also had an opportunity of meeting Shad, G and DJ TLO that day in Vancouver. These guys are very chill, approachable and easy to talk to. Just wanted to say thanks for being very supportive of the blog.
Shad and his crew are hanging out in Laguna Beach until Vans Warped Tour starts on Friday. They have also started a blog called bloggy-blog. Check it out for the latest updates straight from them.
There are still spots available for the Warped Tour Guestlist for MOST cities. To take advantage of it, go to Shad's facebook fan page click on the 'discussions header' up top and check out the discussion about warped tour guestlist.
I was in New York the week of CMJ this year and was having Italian food with some friends and when I was leaving saw some people I knew walking into a club.
I asked who was playing and they said this great artist out of Canada who I should check out. I remembered the name because my friends Andy and Ryan had told me about this guy. It is Amazing how in New York you can just wander into one of the best live shows that I had seen in a long time.After the show I hung out and talked with him on the street and had a great discussion and afterwards decided then and there I would have to try to get him on this year's tour.I would like to welcome Shad to this year's Vans Warped Tour.
