    it's the samet thing at all of the shows- east or west. People freaked out when they couldn't get tickets right after they went on sale, so many paid way too much from scalpers- then scalpers bought up a bunch of tickets to try and make some money and it back fired on them- haha :)

    What was it like $10 a ticket right before NY1???


    Come to the south, Ed- I'll pay face! :D

    really? I'm glad to hear that. I hate scalpers and it's good to hear that true fans were in attendance. And wasn't TOR one of the shows where the audience actually behaved? I think I read that some where on here.

    Yes, i was @ TOR 2 and the crowd definately behaved better than they did in Milwaukee. or so it sounds. Ed had a great time and we all fed off his energy. I wish i was a cute 6 y old, maybe he would have brought me on stage!

    I wouldn't say the audience was great at TO1 or TO2 - I did 3 shows on the West Coast (SB, LA1 and LA2) and honestly the crowd in TO was worse then the 3 in Cali (with SB being the best by far) - don't get me wrong, the crowd was loud and pumped and into it, but they were also rude and obnoxious. I think it cost us at least a song or two at TO1 cause it took Ed 15 mins to tell a 60 second story. Anyhow, the shows were great and that makes the memory of the jerks fade away...

    I was at both Toronto shows and night 2 I overheard a conversation with a scapler. A guy had 2 balcony tickets and he wanted to upgrade to 1 floor ticket. The scalper wanted both tickets + $150 for 1 floor seat. He first asked how much a single ticket would cost and he said minimum $200.

    Anyone know if those were scalpers out front of Massey Hall in the lamborghini? Sure looked that way, looked like organized crime.

    Yep - an infamous Toronto scalper - you'll see that car at every Leaf game and major concert/event.

    That's what I thought. I know I have seen them before.

    I guess it is safe to wager the "ticket broker" business is profitable - I believe he used to drive a Hummer...I actually saw cops who appeared to be issuing citations to scalpers on Night 1 right in front of the theatre. I overheard one saying to them "you are simply charging too much guys" - they appeared to be writing tickets. That said, I didn't see them confiscate their supply.

    I was at Toronto 2, and the crowd was yelling out all sorts of stupid requests. Good crowd overall just a few tools.

    The Vancouver crowd was much more respectful, but also not quite as pumped. So it works both ways i suppose...
