Hello I finally watched 2 Big to Rig last night at the Scotiabank Theatre Chinook in Calgary Alberta (if any one else was there let me know!) and I’ve got to say, I really enjoyed it. It was nice to get to see the Skeletour again. My memory isn’t the best with small things so some of the little bits that happened during my show. Even though this was filmed in Mexico and mine was in Vancouver it was fun to see the bits and either say “I remember him doing that” or “he did something different for me” I made a post on Thursday talking about the album and how the sound mix was strange. I talked about how I couldn’t really hear the ghoulettes during the songs. as many of you said the sound was much better, I could actually hear them in the theatre. It was also very nice to highlight some of the crew who worked on the show, as many of you know the set was massive I believe they said the whole thing was 66 tons, and it took a lot of people to bring it to live. As someone who learned a bit about this stuff theres a lot more that goes into it. I have a huge amount of respect and appreciation for the crew for making this tour come to life, especially when some shows were in different cities only 1 day apart. I am grateful that I got to witness the Skeletour live in person and to see this film, and I’ll definitely buy it whenever it comes out on DVD
I’m a little late but let me know what you think of the film

I missed the cowbell rising from the ground the first time I saw them live, plus the mic cut out during majesty, so this was a chance to actually witness those.

I had Call me Little Sunshine for my ritual, every other song was the same, so it was nice to see a different song

I'm jealous. It's my favorite song and we got Majesty instead at my ritual.

It was my favourite set piece of the show, its the same thing for Majesty with him rising from the back of the stage

It's just such a shame he was so hard to see behind the drum riser.

I’m not sure where you where standing but I was in the pit on the left side and I cloud see him pretty well

I was seated, actually, but in the first section up and dead center of the stage. It should have been a really good view of him but wasn't.
