    personally, i miss the day of the lighters...

    I still bring a lighter to shows and use it. Fuck using my phone for that shit. Half the joy of that moment is keeping it lit/burning yourself re-lighting it.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    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.

    Just wanna check in on the bus route from the PreParty to the Centre Vidéotron.

    https://goo.gl/2ChcwI

    Pre party .. Pub Galway 1112, avenue Cartier
    PJ show .. Centre Vidéotron, 250 Boulevard Wilfrid-Hamel

    There's two way's to get there. Either take the 800 then transfer with the 802. Or take the 801. Any one you pick you'll get to the Centre Vidéotron in 36 minutes by bus & walk.

    ..

    Was there any other pub much closer to the Centre Vidéotron that could of hosted the pre party?

    I don't think it's too much of a cab, especially with a few people onboard. Centre Videotron isn't out in the burbs like the CTC in Ottawa (correct me if I'm wrong). Also pub Galway is apparently one of the five best pubs in Quebec City.

    One of the best? Alrighty then. :)

    The Canadian Tire Centre is 25 minutes away (car ride, no traffic) from the downtown core. Nothing much around the CTC. The Ottawa PreParty though is pretty much right there. Right @ the CTC so you can party from the afternoon all the way till Pearl Jam takes the stage.

    If there's a pub at the Centre Vidéotron that would be able to host the preparty that too would be great.

    The Ottawa '11 preparty was also hosted @ Berts Bar, @ the arena. Not sure where the '05 one was hosted.
