Last night I went to K-days The Ex Capital Ex more specifically to Ed Fest the outdoor concert venue they were putting on this year. Now I left early from work to get there with enough time to get a good seat, and well I did 
I was sitting on the sound tech stage for the entire thing as well as for most of the Three Days Grace performance. Last night”s crowd was the largest for the venue to date, even beating Our Lady Peace! Anyways, Tupelo Honey (Local Edmontonian band) was the first opener and they did not bad considering the humid and hot weather, following them was a group from York, Ontario called Oliver Black. They were not bad, but I would prolly not buy their album just from their live performance, a lot of it was just too much and it would have been better if the lead singer had gone less crazy and stopped screaming her lungs out off key.
Finally, at around 9:30 PM Three Days Grace came out! Adam looked really good, he was wearing a nice black shirt with a white silky tie and long black shorts. Think Anthony Kiedis from RHCP, but hotter and younger They started off with Just Like You and the crowd was into it immediately. Some of the other tracks they performed were Scared, Animal I Have Become, Riot (which I laughed when I saw security running around and hoping that we were not going to start one), Get Out Alive, Pain, Never Too Late and one other that I cannot remember for the life of me. Adam was awesome at keeping the crowd into the music and he got everyone to jump and throw up their hands for all of Animal I Have Become and to sing along to Riot. The light show was really well put together and the sound quality was great so kudos to the techs Finally at around 10:40 they ended with a long intro into I Hate Everything About You and the crowd sang/screamed along and let the groove take them. I picked up a tshirt at the merch station before the first group came on, so I could guarantee sizes. I have taken pictures, but the film has yet to be developed, so I will post them when I get the roll back
