    but they have to hit the atlantic provinces too this time, and you forgot Thunder Bay, lol
    lol.... maybe time to go home for a rest... Newfieland!
    yeah those St John's tickets will be impossible to get if they go back
    just like any other 10C lotto draw i guess...lol just my fucking luck i lose again. LOL
    well Ontario is Pearl Jam country, but you have to keep trying plus you can always find 2 people who have singles and whichever one has the worst ticket you trade them your better one, and that is a way to get 2 good seats, people always have singles

    Yeah im sure I will be lucky get at least one in through the draw then buy a couple through TM etc..
    Hamilton 9-13-05; Toronto 5-9-06, Toronto 8-21-09, Toronto 9-12-11, Hamilton 9-15-11....

    Not a fan of the CFL. Until they put one Atlantic Canadian team in the franchise, I might give a damn. Till then, the CFL sucks!

    It's true. I see them push the awful franchise on every single channel the past few day's here locally. I'm here like "WHY? Why should we care? There's not even a Canadian team here east of Montreal in the CFL. Who cares!?!" The Grey Cup was horrible. They didn't even sell out. CTV & CBC the past few day's were broadcasting news of scalpers & fan's that couldn't make it to the game who had $200+ dollar tickets that couldn't even sell them. Nobody was interested. They would take a huge lose & sell them for under $30 bucks. lol.

    Well to be fair that's because it was the stampeders and the ti-cats playing. Stamps suck and the ti-cats don't have the most hard core following.

    Mostly because the stamps suck!

    yeah, I found the game itself to be quite boring. And I was drinking. LOL. the unfortunate part of it is, as was stated, with Hamilton in it, there was no buzz. Had it been Toronto or Montreal, then yeah, they would have had asses in the seats. it's pretty tough to sell out BC Place too, though. It holds 60,000 plus, does it not?

    just don't eat the McDonald's version of poutine. it is vomit-inducing. they know how to do it in Montreal, obviously. they BAKE IT. it's a fucking french fry/cheese/gravy casserole. it is unbelievable. even Ed would eat it.

    sometimes I get the shakes if I haven't had a Tim's in too long. I can stay in my warm house and make my own coffee on a Saturday morning, but I choose to go outside in -45 celcius and drive 5 minutes to get it.

    bloody ridiculous.

    I'd like this to happen, but doubt it will on 2015. The 2005 rumours stated in January and I first heard about the 2011 shows in December 2010 and rumours started picking up steam in February that year.

    If there's any North American shows next year I think it will be centred around Bonaroo and Lolla and maybe they get up to Toronto and/or Montreal.

    he does? why? I mean, he always says that at shows, but I always assumed he was just placating to the local crowd.

    well he really appreciated the Canadian support in Detroit, and listening to the boots from any Canadian show it really seems that he has a special fondness, above and beyond placating the local crowd, having said that it seems that the band is really trying to savor each show they play since they will probably not play more than 30 shows in a year for the foreseeable future, so there is much more of a connection with the crowds and cities, of course they are playing 45 minute longer sets too, lol

    Been listen to the fall tour boots and Ed keeps saying that it makes the room sound better because of all the banners. I'd say that's a pretty strong argument for them to play at the Bell Centre in Montreal....pretty sure they have more banners than anywhere else :D

    Also if they could play during the season so I can see my Habs play at home and see PJ within a few days of each other I would be so happy.
