I was second row - center for the show at the Winnipeg Arena on that same tour. It was fan-fucking-tastic.
A virutally unkown act at the time named Bon Jovi warmed up for them.

On and off and on and off, the past 5 years alone have been a giant clusterfuck fiasco for these guys. Amazing how 4 guys who made millions back in the day can't get their shit together for a few months a year and keep their fans happy.
Hopefully this time they get it done.
