    Berts is a giant clusterfuck on game/show nights.  too many people trying to get in there. 
    That's great for pre parties. More fans the better for the charity / party. :) 
  • I got tickets!! They are towards the back but I don't even care just happy I got some.

  • Can anyone comment as to the taxi/Uber/Lyft situation post show, for those of us trying to figure out how we are getting back to our hotels? :) 
    Shitshow.

    If you are able to score a lift then there is the traffic jam to get onto the hwy back into the city.  Think the cab ride back in 2016 was close to $50.  Uber was 5X surge pricing do about double the cab ride.  Waited for a good 30-40 mins to even get a cab.

    Gotcha!! So there is a cab stand where folks line up and cabs just show up? Or do you have to call a cab specifically?

    I remember we should up early afternoon and you could just park at the arena before they lock it down in preparation for the show and charging people to park. If you’re inside the lot before it’s locked down you’re fine.

    Driving up to Ottawa from St. Catharines early Friday morning.  Staying at the Holiday Inn in Kanata.
  • I think we should have a pre party at the Fairfield Inn closest hotel to the venue.  I’m staying there anyone else?

    The public transit (OC transpo) is pretty good to the CTC.  they should have a bunch of buses (400 series) that are non-stop from downtown to CTC (and home again after show).  
    $3.60 
    No waiting.  



    Tempers are wearing thin. Let's hope some robot doesn't kill everybody.

    I will have a pair (my 10C seats) to sell. My brother in law and his wife live in Ottawa and I ended up buying 4 together in the Ticketmaster sale so we could all sit together, meaning my 10C seats are now available to a fan (reserved, so I don't know precisely where they are yet).

    That’s good to know, driving up from Hamilton early Friday morning.  Guess I will spend the day in Kanata.  Hope they have an outdoor merch truck.  That would help kill some time.

    Might try this out, if all of us are ok being there early for merch, preparty & show. If not it's gonna be $15 dollar parking.

    I bought two tickets for this show and then my wife tells me we have to be in California for a wedding. I guess these will go on the fan exchange soon.
