This Canada Day I had the privilege of meeting quite the famous Canadian band. Glass Tiger was established back in 1984, in Newmarket, Ontario. They have marked their place in the world as one of Canada’s greatest bands of all time, and have won five Juno awards and a Grammy nomination. They have sold millions of albums and singles, and have many hits below their belts.
The concert I went to was located in central Alberta. With a hot, sunny day as their playing field, the band went on to play for thousands. Belting out the lyrics with high energy, the crowd went wild for their early hits, and fell in love with their latest songs. The instruments were blaring, and they placed a strong beat that the audience danced to, despite the crazy heat of the sun. Songs such as “My Town”, “Diamond Sun”, and “Watching Worlds Crumble” had the audience screaming for more, and they stayed on their feet throughout the entirety of the hits.
As the concert ended, the audience cried for more, and Glass Tiger obeyed their fans’ pleads and hopped back on the stage for an encore. They played their classic hit “Animal Heart”, and the fans sang along and cheered. Finally, they decided to end off the evening with “Don’t Forget Me (When I’m Gone)”. As soon as the band announced this song, the crowed erupted in to a frenzy of screaming and anticipated jumping. The song was sung with a mixture of the lead vocalist’s voice and the excited vocals of the fans. Finally, the concert ended, and the night was brought to a close.
Overall, I feel like the show was high energy from start to finish, and it gave the crowd exactly what they asked for.
Rating for Glass Tiger: 10/10
