Nectar to play live to 50,000 at Frank Clair Stadium for GREY CUP 2004!

Nectar have been invited to play to a crowd of approx. 50,000 people at Grey Cup 2004 at Frank Clair Stadium in Ottawa.

Nectar will be performing live (no lip synching here) on the main stage from 5:30-5:55 PM, just minutes before kick-off at 6:00 PM.

When asked by the House of Blues/Grey Cup 2004 Association if Nectar were interested in performing potentially one of the largest gigs of their career, Chris Volk replied, while simultaneously shitting his pants, "Er, yes, thank you. We'd love to do the little shindig."

Nectar will be performing, fresh change of pants and all, courtesy of House of Blues and the Grey Cup 2004 Association. Tickets? Good luck!
