      At a show I was at in Winnipeg a homeless guy came in and started harassing people. The singer jumped from the stage and took him to the ground. later in the show, the singer put on an oven mitt and grabbed like fifty sparklers and lit them all at once. Almost burned the glove to his hand but he squirmed out of it in time. Dropped it on the stage and stomped it out then got burn treatment from a drunk paramedic who was in the audience. True Winnipeg memories.

      Grew up in Winnipeg, moved away a year or two ago: Yep, that’s home.

        I grew up in Iowa and was always curious about driving to Winnipeg on a whim knowing nothing about the place. I don’t live anywhere near there now though.

          Come to Winnipeg because you’re curious; stay because your car got stolen and Greyhound stopped operating there
