We didnt have enough stuff for fundraiser in Montreal so Demetrios ask us to make some donation. I decided at this moment to print out some pictures i took in Quebec City back in 2005. Since it went out pretty good(a little blur on the photo below...), I've make the decision of doing the same in Toronto, Ottawa and Hamilton!

Shit yeah.
I'll be there. I work in that shitty mall... I'll need something to get me through the shift!
Gooood wings there btw.. and a bowling lane!

Where abouts in the mall do you work? I used to work at Protocol, the call centre in the upper level.
I'm in the Pharma Plus... for a few more weeks anyway.. handed in my resignation and it feels great! I'll be working the day of the show though. Until 2ish. Anyone staying around the mall/arena should stop in and say hellp! I'm the ultra handsome guy in blue.

Honest Lawyer also has street level access from outside, if I'm not mistaken.
Ohhhh, this is going to be fun! As far as USD is concerned.. there is currency exchange as well as a couple banks inside Jackson Square. Most mall tennants will accept the USD, but some of the smaller ones may not... who knows?
Hope this helps... and I can't wait to meet you all!
There are three underground lots. East, Central, and West. Central is under construction and closed... leaving East and West. Beacause it's a week day, the lots will likely be full through the day as it's not just parking for the mall but also the office buildings above the mall/hotel. It's worth a shot though. It'll be a bitch getting out of the lots though. Even on a regular day it can be a half hour wait... let alone 20,000 people leaving Copp's at the same time. There is parking all over the place downtown though... so whereever you can park, the walk should be minimal.
Regular parking is $12 for the day.. but event parking will likley be $20 ++ regarless of where you park.

The best way to find B&B's and other hotels would be to Mapquest Copps Coliseum's address, and then do a Search Nearby for bed and breakfasts, or hotels or motels. Most of the places you will need to call as they don't have websites. Hope this helps!

Had lunch and a few beers at the Honest Lawyer this afternoon... pretty rad place and the food is really good. Best part is that it's about 50 steps from the hotel door and they close at 2am. I think I know where I'll be stumbling from tonight.

THIS, is gonna be awesome. I ask though, does this place really exist, because we all know honest lawyers don't.
I'm potentially looking to trade tickets with someone. I've got a single ticket 37th row floor, I personally would rather be anywhere in the seats. Anyone that prefers the floor experience that might want to trade let me know. I do collect ticket stubs so I'm only willing to trade with someone with a physical ticket not a computer printout.
In 2005, I remember parking a ways away from Copps on the street for free.
Does anyone know where this can be done ? I believe we parked somewhere on James Street.
I can't afford $20 to park my car. As far as I'm concerned, it should be illegal to gouge
people that way. $5 for a parking spot should suffice.
Thanks.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Thank you FitPearl!!
Of my innocence... got back my inner sense...
Copps does accept USD.
The Honest Lawyer does have wheelchair access, when you go into the mall it's in.
If anyone has other questions about the venues, please PM me, and I will do my best to find the answers.
Have a beautiful day.
Sorry to report the Hamilton show has been postponed....
I Kid I Kid....
I hope your having a few wobbly pops on Wednesday night so you can get some sleep. I was so excited last night i was tossing and turning.
Dang that PJ....
Nami
I have put a plan in action.... :shifty:
I went cold turkey on all caffeine this morning until the day of the show...hopefully it will "let me sleep, until it's PJ time."
I really want a tea right now....must...restrain...from...turning the...kettle...on...
cherry tea?
:lolno:
:P

Or am I going to want to drive to a different lot?
Well.. this is where it's a little bit tricky.

Beacause it's a week day, the lots will likely be full through the day as it's not just parking for the mall but also the office buildings above the mall/hotel. It's worth a shot though.
