Lefty is in...

I'm in!
I renewed my membership in the Toronto Maple Reefers PHC so I'd be sure to get club tickets.
I'm renting that waterfront condo again, for me & 3 or 4 friends.
Welcome back, Jimmy!

Boston area Parrotheads headed up to Toronto for the Concert. Wife's Birthday weekend and we are looking forward to a great time and meeting new Parrotheads.

Looks like we're in for Toronto! It looks like we will be flying in and staying at a hotel downtown. Since we won't be tailgating, are there some bars or restaurants in the area that might be fun for pre-game festivities? From the maps, it looks like everything is walkable from downtown. Any help would be appreciated.

Mrs. cdnkeywest and I are going to be "in" for this one!!

Now that it is back to the Molson Amphitheatre in the summer (and not in the "hockey arena" in the fall) all is right again!!

Now to get some decent tickets!!

Cannot miss a Saturday Night Jimmy Buffett concert in Toronto down at the lake!

Looks like the OttoCals will be in! Finally a weekend show we can get to!

Anybody staying the night and have hotel favorites?

As the day draws closer and plans are made, I'll do my best to post some details on page 1 of the thread. The Hamilton and Toronto PHCs usually have some kind of pre concert festivities.

I really enjoyed the Maple Reefers' party in the park that surrounds the Molson Amp. I guess that now I'm a club member I'll get to help out

Looking forward to it. Getting married 2 weeks before in Toronto, so get back from honeymoon and right back to Toronto for Jimmy. Can it get any better?

If somebody knows the "password" for the Live Nation pre-sale on Thirsday and can PM me - I would appreciate that!!

Since mrs. cdnkeywest's birthday is July 12th I figure this concert works as a birthday present - guess I have to buy her a drink or few as well!!

From what I can tell, the 'presale' is for using the LiveNation App on iPhone/iPod touch, and you don't need a password as long as you order tix with the app. Is anyone else using the app for ticket purchasing? I know someone got their Camden tix using the app.

Pre-sale is Thursday 10 am. If there is another pre-sale or one with a password- please share

Note- if anyone is planning to use the Live Nation app and you don't have it yet, download it today or tomorrow, you have to figure out how to use it and it takes some playing with to get it. Like if you are not in TO you will have to ask it to change locations instead of your home location, and you should try to find the concert ahead of time and make sure your LiveNation/TicketMaster account info is up to date so that it can charge your credit card and all of that stuff that you don't want to mess around with on Thursday morning.

Are lawns OK here? Was planning to go for lawn seats since we will be going down to Philly for the camden show in June and these weekend hotel bills are going to start to add up!

The lawn is lovely... it's a much smaller venue than the American ones, so you're closer to the stage.
I'm counting on club ticket(s), so I don't have to do the TM/LN dance!

Presale starts today!! Good luck y'all!! See you on the lawn!!

OttoCal · Post by **OttoCal** » March 24, 2011 10:05 am

I have never had a smoother ticket buying experience. Way to go Live Nation App!! That took like 25 seconds total!!

2 lawns for the OttoCals, see you there

Almost makes me want to get an iPhone!! 2 on the lawn as well!!

That was the easiest purchase I've ever had with Ticketmaster / Live Nation. Done in under a minute. I'm guessing it won't be that way when everyone starts using it though.

Anyway, we're in! Sec 201. Can't complain. See you all there!

I didn't even use an iPhone, I just used my iPod touch and my wi-fi at home and was only about 15 minutes late to work!

Do you have to have the "iphone app"?

I do not have an iphone.

Is there a password for the pre-sale any other way?
