Saw these guys for the first time in three years on Friday night and it was so delightful. Emily Haines joined them for a bunch of songs, including Anthems and Almost Crimes, which was incredible. I really miss her in the band, although Ariel Engle is doing a good job as the only female voice member right now.
The new songs were great, especially All I Want, 1972 and Can't Find My Heart. I also liked the Hug of Thunder stuff, which I was happy to hear since I missed the tour.
Anyways, BSS remains one of my favorite bands and live acts. I hope they stay together for good, a world with their music is a better world.
