    What are people planning to do for parking? Parking @ the venue is RIDICULOUS.

    You can walk from the Brazen to the venue in about 20 minutes or so, so it may not be a bad idea to park at the Brazen, walk over, walk back to the brazen after the show and have a quick exit from there.

    Any thoughts?

    We got a hotel. Going to drink at The Black Bull then walk or street car close enough to walk. I will be glad to drink a few more as we are not driving out of there, and yes the parking there is terrible.

    Days Inn is like 90 CDN for 2 double beds.

    My plans:

    1) My friend and I ride the Go Train into Toronto.
    2) Pick up 10C tickets.
    3) Meet a couple of non-10C ticket holding Toronto friends for a few drinks.
    4) We all cab it to the Molson Amp.
    5) Get our socks rocked the fuck off!!

    Seems like a pretty solid plan.

    I can't wait!!

    Friday seems so far away ....

    :)

    When did you apply, and did you pay to expedite it? It may be worthwhile calling the right channels (whichever those may be) and paying the extra sum to have it get expedited.

    Regarding parking, it's bad at the best of times at this venue, but please remember this is the OPENING DAY OF THE CNE so it will be HORRENDOUS! There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. So, do whatever you can to park elsewhere and walk down.

    With 3 months, didn't think I needed to expedite. My congressman's office has gotten more answers today than I have in the last two weeks. Hopefully I can pull this off.
