Great
concert last night(oct 17th mtl) my soul was brought somewhere special and my
heart was touched!! Happy trails on your journey!! ~ Giovanni
Delfino
When I was 14 you played Montreal at Jarry Park and I could not afford a ticket,
so I listened from the park and LOVED it. By the time you toured here again I
was a single parent and just didn't spoil myself with any concerts. Last night I
FINALLY saw you at Place des Arts, and WOW WOW WOW, it was worth the wait!!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR PUTTING ON SUCH AN AMAZING SHOW!!! ~ Pam
Comeau

Last
night a friend and I saw you in Montreal. I was scare to death to drive up to
Montreal from Vt. What a concert my friend and are still can't get over how you
great you and your band sounded!! Better than your albums that we have listened
to over the years. We were fortunate enough to meet you after the concert. You
were very gracious and kind to us because we were just regular people living a
dream. Thank you so much. May you be blessed with many wonderful moments in
nature that you appreciate and are inspired by, as are we. God Bless, Martha and
Candy (the two regular people) ~ Martha
After a show like the one last night in Montreal. Roger Hodgson for prime
minister. ~ Mike Montreals
Love affair with Roger Hodgson will NEVER die. We love you, Thank you so much
for two great nights. ~ Connie
I left the concert tonight at Place des Arts singing out loud It's Raining
Again, it brought a smile to me and the people around me. As I walked through
the streets home, I heard another couple behind me half a block away sing Take
the Long Way Home, then another singing Dreamer. What magic, what joy you have
brought to us here in Montréal. Thank you so much. Love from all of your fans.
~ Jennifer Thomas
Merci pour cette Belle Soirée mon beau Roger ! Moi & mon Chum avons adoré !!!
(Thank you for this beautiful evening my brother Roger! Me & My Boyfriend
loved!) ~ Marie-Josée Couture
Was
at your show in Montreal last Saturday and brought my 23 year old son. It was
wonderful to watch his reactions and his appreciation of your music. He told me
after he was blown away and wishes he had grown up in the 70s. I have seen you 5
times now and was so happy to hear Death and a Zoo as well as Across the
Universe. A first for me live for both. Well done and incredible show. I look
forward to Casino Rama Nov.2nd and have one small special request which I will
leave a couple days before. Safe travels and much success to you and your family
and mates. ~ Steve
Tonight (18 October 2013) was my first live exposure to Roger Hodgson and I
couldn't thank you and the entire band for the phenomenal performance! You
played everything I wanted to hear, and even some that I really thought you
wouldn't! "It's Raining Again" is my favourite Supertramp song and, after your
interview with Terry DiMonte on CHOM a few weeks back, that was one I didn't
expect and I've hardly ever been happier in my life than when you started
playing it! Hearing some of your original material, to which I had no prior
exposure, has really gotten me interested in hearing more! I thank you all for
one of the most memorable nights of my life! ~ Shawn Aumond
Just got back from the concert tonight and it was great as always. This comment
is to not only thank Roger for a fantastic concert but to thank the staff at
Place Des Art!!!!! I had purchased tickets for our 25th anniversary 7 months ago
for Roger's concert, front row center VIP, access to sound check, etc. My wife
has not missed a Roger Hodgson concert since we move to Montreal 9 years ago.
She is going blind and although we go to concerts she can never see the stage so
tonight was supposed to allow her to finally see Roger as well listen to his
great music. She was so pumped for the concert! Thing is I screwed up! I got the
dates wrong, since I bought tickets to the second concert I assumed it would be
second... it wasn't. The tickets were for the concert last night! My wife was
heart broken, not only no front row tickets, no concert.. it was sold out. To
the rescue was the staff at Place des Art.. after hearing the story, they got us
tickets (balcony) then during intermission, they got us seats close enough for
my wife to finally see Roger Hodgson sing his music! After we got home, she
babbled to my daughters for over an hour about the concert and I went in the
other room and .. cried. I am so grateful to the staff and to Roger for making
this night special for my wife (especially after I screwed up!)! As her world
goes dark, music and especially Roger brings light into it for her! Roger, thank
you for your gift to the world. I am a fan forever, we will be at your next
concert.. Front row center! ~ Shawn Romkey
You
remember me?? You played Breakfast in America for my son last night!! You search
for us but you didn't saw! We were up on Balcony!! Specials thanks from me but
specially from my son. By the way, his name is Valier!! You made his night and
mine too...I saw his eyes when you played the song and I saw little tears! He's
an emotional man; like his father!! I'm sure he made so good dreams last night!
He say's that he will remember his evening for long long time, for his life!
Thank you thousand time Roger. You are a great man with a great heart. Valier
said that he want to write you a letter so you will receive some good words from
him soon :) Specially thanks to your band too, you guys are amazing!! So Roger,
thanks again and have a good times on your tour. You made a difference in
people's life so long long life to you, your music and your words. Take care,
love you Marc p.s. I hope my english is not so bad!??! :) ~ Marc Franche
A love affair that has been going on for forty years was alive last night at
Place des Arts. Sensational from start to finish. Please come back to Montréal
in 2014 ~ Claudio Delmonte
Thank you Roger for another beautiful evening. So much fun, and as always an
excellent show. I just can't get enough of your live performances, and can't
wait until you're back in Montreal. ~ Lesley
Awesome concert ! This was my first to see Roger and my husband last saw
Supertramp when he was 14...!He surprised me and what a spectacular concert !
Will definitely see you again. The Band was awesome ! Thanks for great memories…
~ Anthony & Beverly Sangollo
Man,
you re an angel. You almost makes me cry on "hide in your shell" (thx to jenny
who requested the song...). The depth of your songs bring us in heaven. You seem
to fly in the clouds. I was brought back 30 years ago and that was really really
good feelings, trust me. I'll be in the first seats next time for your next
world tour in Montreal. We love you. ~ Guy
It's Saturday morning and we are having breakfast listening to all our
Supertramp albums (yes albums). We pulled an all nighter Thursday night to see
you in Montreal and still made it to work Friday sleepless. We are in our 50's
and have been addicted to your music since the 70's when I saw the first concert
Supertramp ever performed in the United States. Tickets were $3.00! I still
remember it like it was yesterday. Thank you for this addiction. We are now
searching for tickets to your New Bedford show on Sunday. Another all nighter!
Totally worth it. Thank you so much! Peace. ~ Jody & Mike
I just wanted to say "Thank You" for transporting me back in time to when I was
young and innocent(lol)! Your show last night at Place des Arts was truly
fantastic! What an amazing band you put together for the tour..outstanding! The
song selection and the flow of the concert was fantastic! I hope to see you back
in Montreal soon,and if I can be so bold as to make a song suggestion, please
add Had A Dream(sleeping with the enemy) into your lineup..I would love to see
you perform it "Live"! It's a brilliant piece of music. Enjoy the rest of your
tour and don't forget..you can always come back home to Montreal & CHOM 977! ~
Ronny Mack
Was at the concert on Thursday night in Montreal, Fantastic, next year it would
be great to hear Babaji. ~Audrey McGee
I
was at your concert last night at La place des Arts in Montréal. I want to say
thank you and it is not enough compare to what you did for me. The man of my
life bought the tickets many months ago and it was the best decision ever. At
some point of my life and for some reasons I decided I did not needed to listen
to my old music hits anymore. My youth was behind me, my children were listening
to actual music and I thought I had to keep connection with them and music is a
very strong connection. And yesterday I reconnected with something. With a part
of myself. All vibrations emanating from you are speaking to all who wants to
understand despite language barriers Except for now I realize so many thing with
your words again and once more I get back on track at some point where I was
about to lose myself again. You don't know it but it is the second time in my
life that you arrive, speak to me and make me movin' on at the right moment. I
also realize that what you have to say, was, is still and will always be actual.
No one can count how many of us you kept on their tracks but there are thousand
of us, I am convinced. I believe in angels as a kid I could not identify them.
But as a grown up I am sure you are one. You are too shinny not to be one. And
you say such beautiful things that we understand you even if we don't know the
words ! If this is not being a human angel than I do not exist either. Yesterday
you mentioned coming back to Montréal in two years. Please do it. My grown up
kids need to keep connexion with me now. They have to know where I come from.
PLease don’t say such things if you do not think them seriously 'cause you gave
me hope ! Please keep on signing we need it The would need your songs and your
music. You bring peace, light, joy, love and hope on earth. Thank you for all
your generosity Love from a French-Cajun-Canadian xoxox ~ Nathalie
Thank you for the outstanding performance last night in Montreal. I hope you got
my "fan" letter from you dated 1984! I gave it to a stage hand at intermission.
I kept it for 30 years, thought it would be fun to share with you!! Please keep
doing what you do for a long long time ~ Lisa
Sorry for my English it is not perfect. My husband and I loved your show last
night at the Place des Arts in Montreal . It was the first time I went to one of
your shows. It was wonderful ! You and your team made a beautiful and a good
group . The sound was perfect, the choice of songs too. Your music takes me , I
know your songs but I did not know you before you have seen on TV in a show of
Star Academy with Julie Snyder. For your simple and friendly personality , you
have seduced me right away. It was at that moment that I really liked you . I
told my husband that it would be great to meet you at one of your shows. So if
we could see your face smile or make expressions , it would be the height of our
joy. Again thank you , dear Roger , you gave us a wonderful evening . And ' as
we say in Quebec , Hat, Roger ! :-) Xxxxx ~ Carole Cote
I can't even begin to tell you how truly incredible your show was last night. I
was so blown away with your talent and that of your band mates. Your music is
really inspiring and leaves your audience with such feelings of joy and
happiness. No one will ever be able to create such beautiful melodies. And your
your vocal abilities still impressive at your present age. Just remarkable what
range you have. Thank you for coming Montreal and sharing your music with us.
And please come back soon! ~John Jutras
Was
at your show in Mtl Oct 18, spoke with Bryan after the show, he said that if you
played shows in Mtl only, it would be alright with him. He said he really likes
the ambiance and the vibe that Mtl has to offer.Roger please come back next
year, 2 years is too far away. You were great. Peace to you and your whole
entourage. ~ Gino Grimaldi

Merci infiniment Mr. Hodgson,revivre sa jeunesse en musique avec son fils de 17

an extraordinary experience. The next time I hope.) ~ christian gariepy
Your concert in Montreal on the 18th was the best sweet 16 birthday gift I could
ever have. Thank you so much for such wonderful music. ~ Emily Rodriguez
Two
years ago, I was there, to see the last two nights of the tour. It was amazing,
unforgettable! Me and my family traveled around America (from south to north,
Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, to Montreal, Canada) and was the most incredible
night ever! We met Roger after the second night (the last show of tour), and
we'll never forget this moments! For those who be able to be there, ENJOY the
ride! ~ Rafael Machado

I'm a fan of Supertramp since I'm a teenager and all my life when I'm feeling
down, my medicine to feel better is to listen Supertramp songs. Tonight, at 46
years old, I realised my dream to see the show of Roger. This is the best show I
saw in my life and the spirit of the evening was incredible! Merci Beaucoup!
~ Martine Brodeur
It was a great show tonight as always. The crowd was amazing too. I have never
seen so many standing ovations at a concert before. I've seen you at Woodstock
en Beauce, Festival d'été de Québec, Montgolfières St-Jean sur Richelieu, Place
des Arts......etc. Its always a special show with so many amazing songs. Its
rare that an artist has so many great songs. It was great meeting & talking with
you after the Quebec city show too a few years ago. Thanks for another wonderful
evening.
~ Dean Kalaidjian
Saw the show on Thursday in Montreal. Thank you for a wonderful evening. ~
