golden ticket – blogging with matt good
by
[Matthew Good] is going to do a completely unplugged acoustic show – no amplification whatsoever – in [his] now empty living room for 20 lucky people…20 fans, two dogs, a little security, one guitar, and that’s it [mblog].
Before he leaves Vancouver for an undetermined amount of time to undisclosed places, Matthew Good is inviting a couple of fans into his house for a very intimate and interactive performance.
I will be there tomorrow night for some live-blogging.
I’m unsure how I got this lucky horseshoe stuck up my butt but I’m certainly glad it’s there (a strange admission, but not too surprising, I know).
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Matthew Good, check the wiki. I can’t believe my first MG Band show was 9 years ago…
The invite is for 8:00pm (Friday, Aug. 25th) so stay tuned.
EDIT: *Blogger is being extremely bloggin’stupid this afternoon (yeah, I still use Blogger *sigh*). I have a backup plan in place in case it’s still being bloggin’ lame while I’m attempting the single most exciting blogging event of my little bloggin’ life :p

Lucky you! I hope you get some good photos 🙂
It is so fitting that you go. I can’t believe it was almost a decade ago that we went to that first show. ‘I’m rebecca’s grandma’!
Anyway, have a wicked time tonight. I’m so jealous I could cry but in a excited for you kind of way. Steal some soap!! jk
hehe and the booth boys we tortured! you haven’t been to a festival/concert til you’ve been with jenjen and Apay :p
I remember we were sitting there going ‘naw let’s not wait for Sloan, let’s go home’ then Matt Good Band came on stage and played Raygun (as we were walking out). we all shouted at each other in our teenage girl voices ‘hey i know this song’ so we stuck around for it. once over, we started walking out again …then Alabama Motel Room ‘we know this song too!’ so then we stayed for the entire set and were hooked 🙂
Have a great time tonight. I will be glued to your blog!! Ha Ha. Are you takin some photo’s?
for sure taking pics if i can (if it’s allowed). i’ll have my camera phone so i can zap pics via blueooth to my laptop — live blogging… yeesh! here goes nothin!
OMG you are video blogging?! (Just read it on Matt’s site) Can’t wait to see it.
Geez.. I wish him all the best.. his post almost brought me to tears!
errr i dont think video – i think just play by play :p but ya know if the setup is there…
yeah i’m SO excited but also really really sad – i’ll be a bit of a mess til tomorrow :p
oh hey.. another thing… I believe you’ll be in Yaletown so on your way home maybe drop by Section 3?? It’s Colene’s (http://disconnectthedots.ca/) going away birthday/travel thingy and a few bloggers will be there… it’s kinda informal so you can drop by for a drink?
wow, thanks for the invite 🙂 – i’m actually supposed to be at BarCamp tonight so i’ll be heading over there (Gastown) afterwards… i mean if i’m not already passed out from all the excitement :p
My jealousy levels are off the charts.
Have an awesome night and remember to post pics!
Thanks for doing this…although this doesn’t compare to being there it’s still appreciated.
Wish Matt the best of luck with his travels and I’m looking forward to the book!
