    Early indications are for thunderstorms that day/evening.

    Hopefully it all blows through in the afternoon and things are clear for show time. Fingers crossed...

    We can't start worrying about weather yet. Leave that for next week.

    true . .
    plus, all 10C tix will be under the roof, so why worry?

    My worry is that a thunderstorm may make the band decide to leave a song or two off the setlist to shorten the night.

    My worry is that a thunderstorm may make the band decide to leave a song or two off the setlist to shorten the night.

    And my worry stems from not having 10C club tickets. I'll be up in the uncovered 400 section.

    But you are right -- It is too early to worry about weather. Besides, it would take A LOT of rain to ruin my night.

    I am Section 407. I don't care about rain. I stood in a terential downpour for 2 hours to get in to Body of War, when Eddie was only singing 2 songs.

    Not to big on lightning though

    I know this is somewhat self-centred, but I remember at the Radiohead show at the Amphitheatre last summer, there was a torrential downpour, where rain was going almost horizontally, from what I saw when I looked backwards. It made for a pretty epic show, actually.

    I have a similar query myself. I'll likely be taking the Go earlier in the day to pick up tickets and was wondering if there's any way to bypass the CNE to pick up tickets or will I have to battle the CNE crowds to get to the pick up window from the Exhibition stop? Thanks!

    I believe they have a labyrinthian re-routing thing that they do when the CNE is open as well as the Amphitheatre for a show.. it's quite a trek, and often a bit confusing, but you shouldn't have to wait in CNE lines for it.

    Thanks! I'll try my luck at the labyrinth.
