Try To Shut Me Up Tour Review

Concert: Toronto

Reviewer: Amy

Date: April 9th 2003


I left for Toronto just before 4 & got there sometime after 5. I had to meet up with my mom so we met her in front of the ACC and then we went and had dinner and bought some film. Then at like 6:45 we walked back to the ACC and stood in line to go to our seats. We being me,my friend & her cousin. We had seats in section 102. Not too shabby considering it was the ACC.But still not good for taking great pictures. I took like 2 of Gob for my friends cousin,and like 5 or 6 of Avril on the screen & just the stage set up cause it was awesome. So anyways,Swollen Members werent that good at all,but I left during their set so I guess I cant really say anything. Gob was pretty good,they kind of got the audience pumped. But finally Avril came out!! Again their set up was so cool! There was 2 big screens on each side, ramp dealies, 3 rectangular screens behind Avril & the band at first showing Avril but later showing cool backgrounds. Avril sang:
Sk8er Boi
Nobody's Fool
Mobile
Anything But Ordinary
Losing Grip
Naked
Too Much To Ask
I Don't Give
Basket Case
My World
I'm With You
Complicated
Unwanted
Tomorrow(Encore)
Things Ill Never Say(Encore)

During I Dont Give,she changed the chorus a bit to "I Dont give a damn,I dont give a shit,What you say about that". During Complicated she brought up a girl & a guy to sing with her. The girl was 12 & the guy was 21. They did good considering Id never do that in my life cause Im -way- too shy! The girl had a really squeaky voice though! Avril played guitar for Mobile,Complicated and Tomorrow. It was awesome! So it ended some time after 10 & I didnt stay to try & meet her cause my ride didnt want to wait & Ive met her before in June when London was still in the band. I really wanna meet Charlie though! Well this is really long! Thanks for staying awake! -x- Amy -x-
