I'd [i]love[/i] to be at that Boston show.

I hate to downsell The Cars, but I hope they move the Toronto gig to a smaller club. Sound Academy is horrible. I routinely pass on shows there, although I'm committed to Cut Copy later this week.

Never seen The Cars, but a reportedly stolid live band playing a mid-sized, shoebox-shaped venue might prove a pretty boring visual for the back half of the room.

Still, glad they're fully into it. I just wish, of course, Ben were along for the drive.
