    "We're goin' to Toronto!"

    "Toronto! Woooo Hooo!"

    "They got jobs there, lots of job! Jobs for lawers like me and doctors like you!"

    "And they got roads too, lots of roads!"

    You gotta get it to get at it. Get at it to get it.

    Is it true that TTC stops running at 1:30 now? I heard something like that. If so, no after party for me. :(

    I'm going to stay with my aunt for at least the first night. Maybe the second if I don't feel like taking the bus after the concert.

    Also, my brother is coming with me for at least one show, so I might have an extra 10C ticket for one night if he doesn't attend. I'd like to either go with my brother, or go it alone. I don't really want to bring any of my friends, because they just 'don't get it', if you know what I mean.

    The last subway from Union is 1:30, but there are Busses 24 hours. If you let me know where your aunt lives, I can get you home.

    The woman and I are staying at Bond Place Hotel on Dundas St. E. I think it's about 5 minutes from the ACC.

    If you plan on driving down to the show, or to the meet-up, leave yourself way more than 15 minutes... traffic can be very conjested in the area of the 401/DVP...

    just so you know... :)

    SUGGESTIONS PLEASE...we're flying in from Philly Monday night..any suggestions on some cool places to check out on Tuesday and Wednesday. I would love to see some local artwork (no commercial/"hot spots") and def need a place for beers...I would love to meet some of you pre show if that's all right too. Thanks! I'm so ready for the shows to start!
    got a car...got some gas...oh let's get out of here-get out of here fast...
    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
    I want to go but I want to go with you.

    I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.

    i guess you don't want me to suggest the hockey hall of fame?

    the bata shoe museum's something random to do.'

    there's many places to drink.

    and please don't litter.

    lots of artwork to be seen at the AGO,

    or at the Distillery District.... (a "hot spot", but full of artwork none the less...)


    Check the first post for details about pre-show beers at the Loose Moose.

    have fun! :D
