    So since there will be no atlantic Canada shows ( no station here is having a Monday announcement so the writing is on the wall), are there any maritimers planning to take in some Montreal/ toronto shows?

    I think I'll be doing Montreal & Toronto & another other show's in between or close by these two cities.

    Lol. You will need a passport for sure my friend. We need one just to go into Detroit. It's the law here. :)
    Just, not enough.
    I need more.
    Nothing seems to satisfy.
    I said, I dont want it.
    I just need it.

    Looking forward to some shows in Alberta, but also hoping to take in a show in Vancouver. The 2009 show was so much fun, and I love visiting Vancouver! Virgin Fest in Calgary was fun, but it was nothing like being on the floor in GM place! Which one of you Calgary guys got them to play Spin the Black Circle with your cardboard record?
    I would also love a Saskatoon show. I have never been east of Medicine Hat on this side of the border...never had a good reason before... ;)

    I might be wrong but anyone who is driving only needs an enhanced drivers license and a birth certificate to cross the border. This is for driving only and I would check with customs ahead of time

    You need a passport or a NEXUS card to cross the border. Any Americans coming to Canada ( I think it was mentioned earlier) with any criminal convictions have to apply for entrance. I think someone mentioned having a DUI on their record and Canada sucking for not allowing them into the country. :?

    Maybe I'm in the minority here (I probably am) but I love how there is piratically no people here with "It's confirmed, book it!" posts for the Canadian tour...For the EV solo shows there were ticket sales posted on sites like Ticketmaster, everyone had threads confirming individual dates, there was every date already confirmed by a friend of a guy's brother and all we were waiting for was the ticket sale times...

    This time, no one has really leaked any real dates, I'm looking forward to the announcement this week more than any other announcement in the past 4-5 years...It' going to be an exciting summer/fall...
    You are half right I guess. We do have a few "confirmed" dates - Montreal 9/7, Hamilton 9/15, Winnipeg 9/17 and Edmonton 9/23.

    That said, it is shocking that Toronto dates haven't leaked yet. Shocked.
    Getting nervous? :lol:
    Maybe they're just going to play some exclusive/surprise or even private shows around the festival? Would suck for most but be awesome for those that can find ways in...I'd be totally blown away if they didn't do at least one big show there tho....but maybe if they're playing Hamilton and another show in or near the Golden horseshoe, as well as a small gig....you guys get skipped? imagine that....

    And...if Winnipeg is the 17th and Edmonton is the 23...that's a big gap. Calgary/Edmonton are the only cities in western canada bands usually do back-to-back...so maybe Sask 19, a break in Banff, then Cal 22 Edm 23? :lol:...so glad this is all going to end soon.

    It's the same fir the states. So we do NOT suck. If you have a DUI and try to get into America they won't let you in. I have countless amounts of friends who have been refused entry into Michigan because of DUI's and petty little charges. Neither country wants small time criminals on their land. Cause after all, getting a DUI makes you a big time criminal. But they have no problem letting boat loads of............ Wait,that's a whole new subject. ;)
    Applying to get in won't do shit either. It's a waste of time. If you get a boarder guard who didn't get laid the night before and has his or her bitch on, your not getting in. That bieng said, back to gran tourismo......

    Edm Sept 23rd I guarantee it ;) For the past three weeks my source has said the same date without even coming close to changing their mind. As for any other date in Canada.....no idea :lol: If the date here in Edmonton changes, my sources will be dodging eggs for the next month for making me look like an ass :twisted:

    Ha. Awesome. The furthest west I'm going is Wisconsin. Then I'm gonna hit montreal. I really hope they go south to Toronto after that, then I can do that one too.
    I want to go to Montreal cause there is a cooking show I watch called Chucks Day Off. And his restaurant is there. He's amazing. He competed on iron chef too.
    He makes fucking lobster poutine. Omg. As soon as I get tickets I'm making a reservation. Can't wait.
    Ya, I said lobster poutine.

    There is a restaurant here in Ottawa that does lobster poutine but I haven't gone to try it yet!! I think it must be good as both poutine and lobster are delicious :)

    D! if you're looking for another show to hit up, I suggest you come to Kitchener or London if either of them go down. I will buy you a beer or something... payback for all the boots you've sent me over the years lol
