Well, given all this buzz will book my rooms tonight. Any suggestions for hotels in Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa? I've never been to a concert there and don't know what the likely venues will be.

I assumed the Air Canada Centre in Toronto and grabbed a room off Expedia from the Strathcona Hotel. Free cancellation and don't have to pay until check-out.
How many of you have started putting rooms on hold just in case?
If you can cancel the reservation for free... what's the harm? Honestly?
PAYING for anything at this point would be extra super dumb. But a reservation? That can be canceled with no fee?
Sounds like a smart move to me.

Currently the closest place to the Canadian Tire Center are the Country Inn Suites and Holiday Inn & Suites. Both are walking distance with the Holiday Inn being a bit further but next to many restaurant/bar options. Live in the Ottawa area, so if you want other options left me know, but those would be the best choices for close to the venue.
I booked the Marriott near the Bell Center for Montreal.
I went through the Hilton site. I could've went cheaper, but it would've been nonrefundable. $119 is a great price. I'm just happy to be in the building
I'm definitely up for beers with all you beautiful people!

Thanks Jimminez. It's seriously called the Canadian Tire Centre?

Please come back and play the Midwest next year again. You know you guys want to.
Definitely planning on doing the ATL/Nashville weekend if true. Will be a hell of a weekend and maybe the best back to back shows of this leg or tour.

I have a wedding on May 14th. You can't make this stuff up. There goes Toronto.
don't worry about it... toronto is the worst place on earth... you don't want to go there (ever)... .or make plans about a fictional date that will never Happen.
I can't stress how terrible Toronto is.... philly and NYC are so much better, and you don't even need a passport! why spend the extra money?

Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

Are you serious? You are saying this, from HOUSTON?!!!
As much as I dislike Toronto, Houston is the WORST city by a long stretch that I've ever visited...I'd visit Ulaanbaatar again before going back to Houston...we have a direct flight from Vancouver BC (best city on earth) and I won't be back there for even PJ!

Seriously...
I do, however, agree with your comment regarding how great NYC is (visited for the first time for Global Citizen...amazing city!) And also how bad the leafs suck!
This is awesome! Today my 4yo daughter asked if Eddie and the boys could come play a show for us. She wants to sing and dance with them. I promised to take her to the next tour in our area. She told me to "text Eddie" and see when he can make it happen. She's the type who forgets nothing! Can't wait for my sweetie's first concert!!

You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
