On a semi-related note, if anyone has not yet checked out Lonesome Cowboy Ryan (as in, Koenig), then clickie here for his latest-- http://lonesomecowboyryan.bandcamp.com/

This is the only thing soothing my frustration at the moment.

My girlfriend and I were talking about that earlier today. We both really enjoyed the live show in Toronto, both nights.

Do they announce when shows at TMR go on sale or do they just put the tickets up and it's first come first served? Since I won't be able to do RSD, I'm heavily trying to convince the wife to go down to this show...

They will go on sale randomly online and then be available at the storefront. Gots to get their electronic updates to know for sure.

What electronic updates do they have other than twitter and email? Not sure I can even go but it's good to know.

I've been really looking forward to seeing them again since Toronto, and was quite disappointed to see Vancouver as the only Canadian show. Hopefully they'll add more shows in the near future.....

I'd recommend getting their tweets sent to your phone. That's allowed me to be fast enough to get tickets to every TMR show I've wanted to attend.

He gave MAJOR props to the crowd in Montreal too. Though that was just a couple days after the infamous Radio City stint.

I think I had a smile on my face the entire time they played both sets in Toronto. It was a huge surprise for me. My girlfriend and I were right in front of him in the front row and he handed us the setlist both nights and shook our hands. Just added that much more memories to a great show. So good to see a great band (Jack) and the opener is great as well

The infamous Radio City stint at which maybe 20% of the audience bothered to show up for Pokey's set each night.
