    Yup. I have a bootleg of a radio interview that Johnny and Gord Sinclair did in Seattle at the local rock station a few years back, and the DJ mentioned that a few celebrity guests had called in looking for tickets to the Hip's show that night: Bridget Fonda, Eric Stoltz, and Jeff from Pearl Jam, to which Johnny says: "Bridget Fonda eh? I think we can work that out." Funny stuff.

    That Johnny, that was just gold! :D

    And Jeff has become more of a cooler cat to me, not that he wasn't cool in the first place. But anyone who likes the Hip are great!

    your loss.. not theirs!
    lots of great concerts from 1996 to the present!

    Definitely! Boston, 7/27/02. One of the best Hip shows I've ever seen.

    Stop considering Ft. York and just get tickets. You will not be disapointed...
    The opening band called the Sadies is pretty much the best live band around. It is a treat to see them.
    Listen to the Sadies.

    You won't want to miss the middle band either. The Weakerthans will blow your mind! The entire lineup for that show is one of the best triple bills I've ever heard of. Ya can't go wrong with any of those bands.

    I want to go to that show too. I didn't get pre-sale tickets either, but I'll try during the public sale.

    Any idea what the capacity of Fort York is?

    no i dont know but i heard it was real small
    i hope they will have tickets because when i tried to get areosmith tickets i was on the ticketmaster website the second they went on sale to the public and there was none because of the pre sales

    the pre sale is still on tomorrow and my mom said for some reason she thinks they will release more tickets wich i doubt but im going to try again anyways

    Wow, that's pretty small. Most outdoor Hip shows usually draw upwards of 30,000 people. I suppose the band picked the venue because it would have a more intimate vibe. Kinda like when they did their theatre tour in '02.

    Really, where? Do you have a link? For some reason I thought this was an outdoor show, because I couldn't find any venue info on the internet.

    Ya I did see this site, but I just don't see venue info. Maybe they don't usually have concerts, and that's why

    Anyone have any luck this morning??

    I tried right at 10am, and nothing!

    I'd be willing to bet that they sold out at the pre-sale...
