[WhoaWhoIsThis]

I wish I could have been at this show, but alas, I was not. But a photo of the set list was posted on the Myspace Secret Shows Canada account, so the rest of us all know what we missed:

I would have loved to be at this show, but at the same time, I would have wanted to hear more off the new album. They only played 3 new songs, and I feel like they're all the ones that were most available for listening to in advance, like, we've heard them many times already. Obviously, you want the crowd to be able to sing along, but the entire album was already stream-able before the album was released, and if I were there I would have wanted to hear Midnight Regulations, Sons of Privilege, Accept Crime, and Emerald Street. Born and Raised is awesome too, though.

Still, it would have been great to catch this show just because the only US AOF dates coming up are Warped Tour, and that's only a 30 minute set. Man, I really want to see them tour on this album.

Were any APers at this show?

They didnt play "This Could be anywhere in the world".........wow.

I was going to go but was going to see TBS/Anberlin. That show was cancelled and it was too late to go to this one. My buddy was at the venue[L3 only holds 400] at 1pm and had the line LITERALLY cut off at him. 4songs into the Alexisonfire set he was able to get in but unfortunately lost his wallet while inside the show. Can't imagine how packed the L3 was.

[andrewa5]

Dont really like the encore and they didnt play this could be anywhere in the world!

but other than that, sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

[boredstiff]

Argh, I would have LOVED to have seen this! It's been years since I've seen them do a headlining show. Especially at a venue like that. I would have liked to hear more new songs as well, though. I want to see "The Northern" the next time I see them :D

...and what the hell is "Bitches"?

[bigproof]

bitches IS this could be anywhere in the world..thats what they call it on their setlist.

[walkonpastme]

i would have gone to just hear waterwings and pulmonary archery....i dont think theyv played either of those songs live in either of their last to tours.

Yeah, and those are great songs. If I had to pick their setlist, it would be so difficult, 'cause I really wanna hear the new stuff live, but some of the tracks on the first album are still my favourites.
