    Happy flights Darwin n Pacer. Enjoy the show shifty. I'm shy of social events but hit a wishlist event up once!

    I still have (2) tickets for May 4th - Floor row 29 - Selling for under face value.

    We are staying on Richards street.  Been checking out food options.  Maybe the Moose?  Looking for good pub grub that can soak up the beer.  

    Tantan noodles sound good but maybe not before a bunch of beer and a concert....

    DM if you are interested in the tickets.

    I really hope everyone who goes and gets the chance (if you are asked for specific song requests) could help this man out

    I think Setting sun might be played anyway, but Man Of The Hour would be extremely sweet for him, I think. 
    That's sweet of you!

    This is why cruise control is a thing. So jacked.
    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.

    We are staying on Richards street.  Been checking out food options.  Maybe the Moose?  Looking for good pub grub that can soak up the beer.  

    Tantan noodles sound good but maybe not before a bunch of beer and a concert....

    DM if you are interested in the tickets.
    I'd normally recommend the restaurant attached to the Kingston Hotel. It's been my go to place, but lately it's gone down hill and was horrible when we went to the Black Crowes a few weeks back.

    With the Whitecaps game at 7:30pm it's going to very busy downtown. Shark Club's great but it may be too late to get in there. Browns Social is next to the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, but again, it's going to be busy. You may have to venture away from the venue.

    It's been awhile since I've been to Malone's on Pender Street and it was just okay, but if you are looking for burgers and beer, that should fit the bill.

    Thanks for the information.  I grew up in and around Seattle so I've been to and through Vancouver (on the way to Whistler) 50+ times over the years.  But I know a bunch of stuff probably closed during the covid situation.  We will be taking the train up so the Shark Club is right on the way to L' Hermitage.  Burgers look tasty and we will be there long before the game crowd.  
    Then maybe somewhere for a cocktail after the show.
    I wish yesterday's weather was tomorrow but it will be a great time none the less.

    I might be doing the same thing.  Bar looks great and it's right next to our hotel.

    I suppose getting in at 5pm by time I clear customs is going to make it hard to get a spot downtown with the game tonight. Shark's Club was option 1 just due to proximity
