BLUE RODEO IN CONCERT:

Canadian roots rock mainstay Blue Rodeo has been sending fans "Head Over Heels" with their country-tinged sound and lighters-in-the-air concerts for more than three decades. The group has won a dozen Juno Awards in their home country, and they've earned a global fanbase with their approachable sound and unforgettable live performances. They've been called one of Canada's best live bands, and it's easy to see why as co-vocalists Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor tag team anthemic favorites like "Lost Together" and "5 Days in May". Fans looking to catch up with with these veteran rockers won't want to miss them any time they perform favorites from their decade-spanning discography on tour.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Blue Rodeo was formed in the early '80s by Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor, two Toronto high school buddies who started playing music together after graduating. Following a stint in New York they returned to Canada and put together a band, and in 1985 Blue Rodeo played their first show at The Rivoli in Toronto. After two years of performing and honing their sound, the group released their 1987 debut album Outskirts to a Top 20 spot on the Canadian charts. A steady string of popular singles and albums followed in the late '80s and '90s, including country chart-toppers like "Try" and "Til I Am Myself Again". Their success continued in the '00s with no less than five Top 10 albums on the Canadian Albums Chart and a star on Canada's Walk of Fame. Over the course of 13 albums Blue Rodeo has won a whopping 12 Juno Awards, and they continue to impress with their time-honored sound and undeniable onstage chemistry every time they tour.

    Meh

    by Winston on 2023-10-25Scotiabank Centre - Halifax

    As popular as Blue Rodeo has always been, I believe they were always most popular in Southern Ontario...in the 1990's, when you went to a Blue Rodeo gig in Ontario, the audience all sang along to every song because they knew the lyrics to every song. So the Halifax crowd, which is often more quiet than other cities, wasn't much help in making the concert fun. But I think it was more than that...I didn't get the impression the band really wanted to be there. Two specific examples...first, whenever Greg Keelor sang lead vocals, Jim Cuddy left the stage, which struck me as odd...second, Bad Timing has always been (for me) a biot of a tear-jerker...I can't listen to the recording without welling up, even after 30 years. But last week? Nada. Nothing...I felt like they were just playing the song without actually performing it, if that makes sense. It was nice to see them again...they're a bit like Lennon & McCartney, Keelor & Cuddy...Cuddy has the nicer voice and his songs are largely upbeat and optimistic, with Keelor being deeper, less tuneful, moodier, but ultimately a deeper songwriter. I'd give it a "meh"as an evening, though I still of course love and appreciate their work.

    Great performance by Blue Rodeo!

    by P in Halifax on 2023-10-25Scotiabank Centre - Halifax

    The musicians in this band are truly professionals. Their music is awesome and their stage presence is one of the best I have seen on a long while. They gave the impression that they cared “I” was in the audience and gave their all for me, the fan.

    Good seats at first………

    by Love Blue Rodeo. Great sound. on 2023-10-24Avenir Centre - Moncton

    I bought tickets in Aug when they first went on sale. Good seats because only half the arena was available. Sometime later, they moved the stage to the other end, and opened up a bunch more seats. Those people (who waited) had way better seats than I did. Not cool!! I guess next time I wait………. Pretty sure that’s not what the promoters want happening.

    Amazing show, they keep getting better!

    by MC on 2023-10-24Avenir Centre - Moncton

    The concert itself was amazing - it seems like Jim, Greg and the band just keep getting more incredible over the years. Musically, it was as good or better than the recorded album and the lighting was gorgeous. My 2 bits of constructive criticism would be: 1) the volume of the female singer that joined them onstage - her mic was set too loud and she overpowered the others even when singing harmony. She was quite pitchy through out the show and the mic level made it more obvious. 2) the constant stream of audience members wandering around and taking loudly during the first half, and people leaving and returning to their seats 4 or 5 times in less than an hour. Get your drinks, go pee and then sit the hell down lol. Otherwise, a fantastic show!

    Ok Performance

    by Don on 2023-10-24Avenir Centre - Moncton

    The first half of the show made me feel like I no longer knew their songs. Speakers didn’t sound right, crackling etc and the singing was off too. The 2nd half of the show was awesome. The Blue Rodeo I love listening to.
