Woooo! You beat me to it!

4 Live shows in a row!

This'll be a pretty intimate show, quite a small 'theatre' like venue

Can't wait!

Massey Hall is in downtown Toronto, made famous by Rush's first live album All The World's A Stage, recorded there thirty years ago. I have two Toronto Rush fan friends who also love LiVE and are very excited to see them there. I'll actually be in TO the weekend before that for RushCon, but I can't stay the couple of extra days.

Everyone should be in for one hell of a show!!

I saw them last night in Halifax and they were fantastic. Maybe it had something to do with it being Ed's birthday, but they had an enormous amount of energy and played a great set.
Jeff Martin also opened with a good set (I am a little biased mind you).

Wish I could say that I could be there too.

Enjoy!

ok, i was at the show tonight. actually didnt get a floor ticket (although i wonder why...only about half of the tickets at massey were sold ). i was up on the balcony, great view

i have to say though, i was kind of disappointed with the show. i thought the set was rather short. I dont know what the average length is that LIVE usually play, but tonight they only played an hour and 45 minutes and considering the huge back catalogue they have, I found that to be rather disappointing. i am not sure if it had something to do with the fact that only about half of the seats in the venue were sold and that a lot of people actually SAT DOWN during the show... but i think that would be even more reason to spice it up!

However, i really enjoyed the show, even if it was short. i loved the fact that they asked several people from the audience to come on stage. I wish I had been among the lucky few!

Oh and i was REALLY happy they played run to the water. it's one of my favourite songs. I actually requested overcome quite a few times during the show, even though i knew it was pretty unlikely they'd play it. sorry if i got on anyone's nerves

Wow, were you at the same show as I was? There were people sitting down? Where? In the balcony? I looked around quite a few times and couldn't see nobody sitting down anywhere. That was the rowdiest crowd I'd EVER seen for Live in toronto and I've been to seven shows now. There was a lot of noise in that place and I don't think I saw one single person in a floor seat sitting down.

Also, the place wasn't half empty neither. The venue holds 2,800 people and there were exact 2, 193 people in attendance so it was just over 75 percent capacity. Which still isn't great but considering the tickets were as expensive as they were, I wasn't surprised neither. Tickets to ozzfest were cheaper.
