    Coming from Albany. Probably going to drive... would love to carpool... cost sharing is ok, but the company is better! Still looking for someone to fill my extra ticket... slowly marking off the list of friends that can't go :-( I'll post on the board if I'm still looking for someone in a few weeks! :-)

    Google maps says exactly 6 hrs door to door (my place to Molson Amp). I find I lop off about 30-45 minutes from the google maps time for a 6 hr drive (I drive to Western PA ~1x per month). I have a "set it and forget it" policy (of sorts) where I set the cruise at 75mph. You can pass cops on the thruway at 75 without needing to tap the brakes. Makes the drive much less stressful... still moving along nicely, but no need to watch out for cops... just rock out.

    10th show, can't wait.... feels like the first time, every time. Oh, and it's on my b-day! woo hoo...

    Alright lets hear it.
    Who's heading to the Toronto show and where are you coming from.

    For me its not too bad, Cottage is in Muskoka (cottage country about 1.5 hrs north of Toronto) so I'll be heading down from there.

    Stoked


    I'll be coming from Parry Sound :D

    I'll be there. I'm split between Toronto and Calgary these days; for the show I'll be flying in from Calgary on the 20th and then taking the GO Train from my Toronto house to the show...so, two GO stops/15 minutes?

    Flying from Edmonton to the centre of the universe to see PJ...for the fourth time (in TO...think I'm around 13/14 shows). Makes me sick how easy you easterners have got it! The money I spend on flights every year could get me to another four/five shows per tour if I lived out there :(

    I know I'm probably annoying the crap out of everyone because I have posting everywhere looking for an extra, but I am really desperate. It is against my religion to buy from ticketbastard, so my only option is on this forum. I vowed (for any show I attend) that if I can't find tickets through other means, then I just won't go. I always have a great time, and can offer extras such as to buy the beer throughout the show, or to pay for a hotel room. Also have some rare posters...

    Coming from Detroit.
    We thought about taking the train, but I think we can get a flight and hotel for cheap, so we are thinking of doing that!

    Does that mean we'll be conducting an over-40 chug-off at the pre-party? If so, I preemptively concede.
