Saw Jeff Coffin @ The Rex last night. Really good show. RR dropped in but didn't play.

Big day tomorrow !!!
How long is the walk from Atlantic Ave to the venue?

    Is it too much to hope the Lovely Ladies forgot their passports in Indiana? I guess tomorrow will tell...

    Right on, thanks. If traffic isn't too bad on the way there we'll probably hit up that pub you mentioned before the show.

    Well this show isn't going to be taped by the one and only Rockinman. He can't make it. So let's hope Greg M will be there to save the day.

    Not sure what time the venue opens.
    If you get to the area early there is lots of food & drink & music, that will allow you to eat, drink and be merry before the show on the CNE Grounds which is a Pan Am games party site. You don't need a Pan Am ticket to get into the site, but you will have to pass through security. NO parking on CNE grounds. See my prior posts. Map link is below.
    Enjoy the show.

    If you have 3 people in your car you will be sailing through traffic, but will have a tough time finding parking. Make sure you leave lots of time to get to the show! I'm surprised the Warehouse hasn't sent an email like last year about traffic when they were doing lots of construction.

    Last year was 2 sets too and they had Edward Sharpe open for them. I thought I saw that there was an opener when they announced tickets but now can't find info so I must be mistaken. I better leave another hour early then.

    No water taxi. Taxi lady said she was booked.
    If you are driving try parking on Atlantic Ave.
    I just parked there for $5.00. 10 min walk through the CNE to the venue.

    If you're looking for a parking spot super close to the GO Exhibition which you can walk under, plug in 34 Hanna Avenue into your GPS, it's the Green P beside the building/mall where Brazen Head is. Hanna is the road you walk down to get to Exhibition station. Lots of parking there, parking is between $5 - $10 if you select maximum (to 7am).

    There were no openers last year outside of the Caravan shows at The Gorge, in Toronto DMB opened with an acoustic set - http://dmbalmanac.com/TourShowSet.as...125&where=2014

    Edward Sharpe is at The Gorge's Caravan shows this year.
