    I am in!

    In 2016 my buddy and I just walked over to a pub and drank with some locals until the taxi situation cleared up.
    This is the thing to do, clearly. Just not enough taxi and Uber drivers in Qc City to handle 16k all leaving at the same time. In 2016 most ended up walking back towards old city, but at least it was in May (was actually quite a "warm" day, spent drinking on terrasses). Won't be anywhere near warm in March. Bring some warm jacket to the show cause there will be walking involved afterwards. Warmth of GA pit for three hours followed by 45 minutes walking in cold = guaranteed pneumonia.  
    What do the GA folks do with their coats. These buildings don't have coat check I assume. haha. Something I never thought about before now. I don't think I've ever had a pit show in March before. (assuming GA comes though).
    $5 a jacket I will store it in the bus. 
    CAD or USD?

    We do not even use CAD up here. USD of course!

    What if I just leave my car in the ole Walmart parking lot and walk over?
    If you are driving, there's a ton of reasonably priced parking at the venue.

    Some people will say Ashton, but I highly recommend Patate Plus. Their poutine is great and there's a wide variety of types on the menu.

    Both in old town? Do I pair this with beer or wine?

    I'm so IN for QC. Saw them there in 2016 and the venue is incredible. In fact, I've been to several other (non-PJ) shows over the past few years and Videotron Centre is by and far my favourite facility.
