Fannish 50 Challenge 2024: Post # 32: Canadian Musician Fandom (BNL)

[ride_4ever]

It was with amazement and delight that I learned my beloved Canadian band -- The Barenaked Ladies -- was going to be performing 5 miles (or 8 km if you're Canadian) from my home in the Midwestern U.S. I had never seen them perform live, always wanted to...and haven't even gone to ANY concerts since the pandemic. (The last two live concerts I did attend before the pandemic were also Canadian, which I'm sure surprises no one.) I got online at the ticket-ordering website about an hour before it opened, wanting to be right at the front of that virtual ticket line. I got a ticket for myself and a ticket for my fanpair...and the concert completely sold out within the first hour of ticket sales.

Here's a clip from that concert:

(And TYK to desireearmfeldt for having pimped me into BNL fandom all those years ago.)
