Let's all say thanks to OLP...
... this year Our Lady Peace went on a tour unlike anything they have done before. From March through May they traveled across Canada playing very special shows designed with extra consideration for their most hardcore fans. At 19 concerts in 18 cities they performed Clumsy from front to back (well, once it was slightly inside out). In 12 cities they stayed another night to perform Spiritual Machines.
There were some bumps along the way. Some shows were unfortunately canceled, leaving ticket holders feeling frustrated and upset. Perhaps Raine sang a line off key or Steve missed a chord. We're all Clumsy sometimes. Maybe the audience stayed seated. Just because it's Spiritual Machines doesn't mean it's church. But surrounding this tour there has been even more success. OLP playing All My Friends? Success! Raine's falsetto? Success! The setlist isn't the tracklist to a greatest hits album? Success! Exploring these old records again will influence them in the studio? Success! The list goes on...
Please take a moment to fill out the form at the bottom of this page and email it to me. Write a message thanking the band for what they have done on this tour. Even if you were not able to attend any of the shows, feel free to send in a message to let them know what you think about the hard work and dedication to their fanbase that they have displayed these past months. Once all your messages have been received, they will be compiled together and forwarded to the band. A link will also be sent to you so that you can read everyone's messages.
The plan is to not edit any messages for content, but there are two guidelines which everyone should follow:
1) Keep it fairly brief (a few sentences is better than an essay).
2) Focus on positive messages.
Everyone who contributes will receive a link (available starting June 1st) to download a special fan-made EP with 5 live OLP songs!!!!!
