why do the Avett brothers not come to canada?

I would love to see the avett brothers in concert but do not want to go to the u.s to do so. I think that they need to set up a couple of dates in Ontario.

I don't know about Ontario, but they were in Vancouver last year or the year before (I forget which). I realize that's probably not often enough, but it has happened in the past.

Is Canada a real place? Puzzled

Just kidding. I love our neighbors to the north. Cool

Shows in New York, Seattle, Michigan give a lot of Canadians a good shot at a show. You guys have 222 (over the counter codeine) which sort of levels the playing field. I don't think headaches exist in Canada.

They are severely allergic to back bacon?

Bob is wanted in Canada for assault with a deadly weapon (it was a frozen, dead, baby seal).

^^^^ did he hide the evidence in his "spare" bass case?

That's a pretty awful thing to say about Bob, blackness. hahaha but still pretty funny.

Not quite dead. Cool

Horseshoe Tavern, Toronto, ONT 10/07/07 thye played. I almost made the drive from Ohio, but didn't for some reason.

Yup. Toronto. On Canadian Thanksgiving. I don't remember it well. But I was there.
Seems like the best bet would be to change 1 persons aversion to coming stateside as opposed to hoping an entire band will change their plans to wander in to the great north.
Just my opinion.

I heard that Canada is full of Steers and Queers.

And your definetly not a bull.

Theres still too many places to go in the US. Hard to please everyone for them I'm sure.

Oh Canada! I had some great times there (between the ages of 19 and 21). One of my most favorite non-Avett shows ever was Tenacious D at The Government in Toronto. Most people hadn't heard them but they came out b/c somebody told them it would be a great time. By the end of the show the whole crowd was jumping around and laughing and doing their best to sing along. Bonus: We got our album cover autographed by JB, KG, and Lee!

I heard the boys hate Terence and Phillip

I heard the passport office is scared that other countries can't handle the Avett phenomenon and denied their visas..

that or they love their own Avett Nation so much they are still attempting to hit all US cities first..

My sister and I traveled from Maryland to Seattle and Vancouver in Sept. 2007 for the Brothers. The Vancouver show was one of my all time favorites. So intimate...the venue was like a Shakespearian Theatre. I'm sure before too long they will be back up there but in the meantime the road goes both ways.
