    2x in Toronto? and maybe a show in Ottawa? Most excellent.

    That would be a sweet road trip. Well, first fly in to Montreal from Halifax. Show there. Then drive to Ottawa. Show there. Then drive down to Toronto. 2x show's. Then maybe, just maybe, catch a show in a city south of Toronto. And during this trip check out the PJ Twenty film @ the Toronto Film Festival & visit Greek Town. I'm liking this a lot, atm. ;)
    If only that all took place in the first 10 days of September! Now I'm debating the merits of being at a huge fest on the lawn or a smaller show in Canada where my middle of the road 10C number might be better. I really wish PJ20 was not at an amphitheater but a field...

    I just want to know first of all the Canadian dates & what's happening @ Alpine Valley. Especially what ticket's 10club has to offer. Cause if Ticketmaster & Live Nation are in this, to score ticket's to this special event will be a complete nightmare. Imagine if they had an option where you could only buy reserved 10club seats for day 1 and day 2 can only be purchase GA 10club tickets? D'oh! Too much thinking. Not enough sleeping.

    not sure if this has been thrown out there....but what about Pearl Jam on olympic island or downsview park???

    i don't see at this point why something like that wouldn't happen...thoughts??

    Oh boy ... I hate both ideas. Olympic Island is the only venue in the city that takes longer to get in and out of than the Ampitheatre and Downsview Park is ... well ... a giant field ...

    I am a sucker for arena shows, so I am hoping that the shows will be at the ACC .... it is open on the 11th for the entire week ... so the 11th and 12th would be perfect (Sunday/Monday) ... that whole week is also open at the Ampitheatre, so it could be either venue really...

    I've been to a couple of the Virgin Festivals on Olympic Island and love that venue, but it would be a logistical nightmare and complete clusterfuck with the limited capacity of the ferries...plus, I'm pretty sure the capacity is only around 10,000..

    Downsview Park would be a much better choice (at least it's accessible by the subway) and the infrastructure is in place as there's a few concerts going on there this year...the capacity wouldn't be an issue, but it's not the most charming of venues..

    i'm not as adverse to seeing PJ at these venues as others may be as i enjoy outdoor shows, but it's highly unlikely it'll happen..

    So it doesn't look like any Maritime shows on this tour? That would suck because I remember Halifax getting some great reviews and noted as being one of the best shows on that tour in 05.

    I find it very odd that no one has yet to report a major concert announcement on the Edge in Toronto tomorrow ...

    Sniff sniff. Nothing here in Halifax. I was pessimistic, but tried to hold out a little hope. :-(
