I suppose that's one reason why Claude Young said that he wouldn't be
coming back to the US for some time as well
I can imagine we're going to be seeing less and less non-US based artists
coming to the states. Unless things change of course.
Promoters just aren't going to be able to afford it.

the reason why the boarder is so tight and the rules keep changing is not
becasue the candian govt want to make it hard to criss cross the boarder
its the US govt who feels that canada is a terrosit holding ground, ever
since 9/11 criss corssing the boarder has been a pain in the ass.
the us govt decied to impose restictions not only on us customes but on
canadian customes and your fraidy cat govt followed suit for the most part
that is. also the rules for candian artists going over the boarder to
perform has changed also and in fact its a pretty heafty tax that
unfortuntly has to fall on the promotures and in term on the paying public
for the shows.... it makes tours of the us a very unappealing venture for
us canadians...
