Is anyone else going to see the show in Toronto?
The only Canadian city on the tour. smile.gif
I can`t believe I`am going!! biggrin.gif The tickest just arrived via FedEx. ohmy.gif
I live on the other coast but just happen to be visiting family in Toronto that week.
I am so stoked and excited. It`s all I can think about. tongue.gif smile.gif
I don`t know if I will meet DC or not but I am just so happy to be even going. blink.gif wink.gif
I really didn`t think I was going to be able to see him at all.
I know it`s going to be an amazing show.

Thanks to all the wonderful info on this site and to all the fabulous DC fans sharing their experiences.
I feel I have an idea of what to expect when we get there, and if at all possible where and when is the best place to meet DC.


Yippy!!!

At this point the stars are not aligning for me.

I don't have tickets. Still keeping my eyes on eBay for last minute deals.
I have to work that day until 7pm and it's a 6 hour drive to TO for me (in Ottawa area).
My wedding anniversary is the day before, hubby is not thrilled with my obsession LOL.
And if that weren't already enough, the engine light on my car came on the other day!

UGH!

I still haven't given up hope yet. I refuse to give up hope.


*crossing fingers and waiting for the dang stars to start aligning already!!*

Friend's coming in around 12:45, so I expect to get to the ACC around 1:15-1:30 pm. Hope, hope that's not too late!!!! I think I might call the ACC to see when they expect the buses - closer to the date, mind you!
CanadianCookie
If you do call, please post it up for us!!!
I'd like to get there early enough too!!

Maybe I'll see you there!

My Hubby is coming too along with his sister and our niece LOL!
I think he is going to be a bit out numbered though. biggrin.gif wink.gif
My mind will definately be on something else, oh he knows I love him. tongue.gif

It would be great to meet up but I won`t be arriving until closer to the show. We have two small children that require a babysitter.

Does anyone know if the idols stick around after the show or do they leave right away?

What?? I'm going to have to go back there and revise my search criteria because I didn't see those!

Is anyone familiar with the ACC floor seating chart enough to know exactly how many seat numbers are in any particular row? On the right side in particular?

I am totally bummed that I can't go to the concert! I am only one province away. C'est La Vie! I can't even hope for a miracle cause it just won't happen. Oh well! unsure.gif

i paid double for sec 118 row 9. are they good seats?
*~word nerd ~*
I know, its crazy how you buy your tickets early, thinking you getting the best seats available then when you go to look just for the hell of it and you see better seats then what you got, you get kinda peeved at that.But I'm happy I get to go and be even happier if I get to meet DC.

I am coming to Toronto on Sunday for a family even on Friday 25th

I was only told about it on Wednesday and managed to get a flight out of here on Sunday. I knew I would be free on Saturday night so i thought I'd get a ticket for the show.
So I'll be going by myself.
How I'm gonna get to ACC I don't know I've been looking at maps and stuff but I'm sure I'll get there.

By the way I'm coming in from Glasgow Scotland and am sooo excited, because I never thought I'd ever see David Cook live.

Ann
elizabethrosalyn
Would anyone who is planning on meeting David be willing to pass on a page (with my letter and some pictures) that I made for him? I was intending to give him a small gift and a card on tour but never got a chance to see him after the show? If so, please PM me. Thank you so much! <3

Hey guys,

me again... Spoke to the girl at the Fan Services for the ACC: While she doesn't know for sure, she figures that the buses will be coming by the York Street Entrance and head underground. She had no idea what time but since my friend has changed her flights, we're coming to the ACC around 11:00 or so to start lurking!

If there's anyone who wishes to get David something and isn't going, please feel free to send me a PM and we can discuss arrangements (delivery, etc).

I am SO meeting David and the rest of the gang!

The Fan Services person mentioned that it's up to the individual shows to set the rules for cameras, etc. She said to call them on Friday - they will know by then...

LINK: https://www.mlsemarketing.com/Speak.jsp?cid=155&scid=19 For the fan services (phone number).

OK, that's it for now, getting pretty excited! Looks like 26degrees Celsius and SUN, so I'm going to bring some umbrellas just in case - can't remember if the York Street exit is near the Gardiner so it's not too sunny (the Rogers Centre is for sure!).

by the way, last tidbit: IF YOU'RE DRIVING, there's a Jays game on that afternoon at the Rogers Centre, so expect TRAFFIC!!!

Bye!
Erika
^So if they're parking underground, do you think they'll still come out and talk to fans before the show? I hope they do!
~Cristina~
I am going to be at the SHOW!! I am SOOO EXCITED I can't wait thats for sure. Lets hope that we all get the chance to meet the IDOLS. I guess we will all know the day of the show. *FINGERS CROSSED that it all works out.* Thanks so much for the update it means alot. biggrin.gif

Hi Erika,

I actually know one other Word Nerd who is in Row 30! Floor seats are pretty good - it's such a BIG place but they're only using half the centre. There are usually pretty good 'jumbotrons' so don't worry about not seeing the stage - mind you, the centre part does jut out so you're technically about 20 rows from the stage (*lol*). I'm in the 18th row so I'll wave back at you!!!

The ACC is where the Toronto Maple Leafs skate and the Toronto Raptor play basketball so it's a pretty cool place!

Bring umbrella and lots of water - it's going to be 35 degree humidex and 60% chance of rain. *groan*

Soso

Erika
I looove the ACC smile.gif I'm totally not used to being on the floor though, whenever I go to concerts there I'm always in the 100 sections. laugh.gif Oh mannnnn rain and a 35 degree humidex?! Thanks for the advice about the seats! smile.gif

As I mentioned at our 'other home', I'm not one of those women who 'glow', nope... I turn RED as a lobster, but luckily I'll be wearing my RED Poet Word Nerd shirt...so I'll match *grin*...!!!!

ohmy.gif I need to find something red to wear!

OUI bien sur, I'm tres excited too. I am just worried about the temperatures!

Anyway, I've just collected (bought) a selection of the best Canadian music CDs, and DVDs: including: Doug and Bob McKenzie, 25th Anniversary edition (WITH BOTTLE OPENER INSIDE *LOL*), Bon Cop/Bad Cop for the DVDs, ANd for music: Blue Rodeo, Tragically Hip, Ill Scarlett (from Mississauga!), Stars, Best of Jeff Healey Band, and Michael Ciufo (young up and coming "Josh Groban/Michael Buble/Andrea Botcelli (--only better!)musician also from Mississauga) for the CDs.

I wanted to give the Idols a quick cross section of Canadian music (and couldn't resist adding the DVDs)! ANY OTHER BAND? I can afford one more CD....

Let me know!
Canadian Cook Fan
I'm looking forward to this weekend. I can't wait!

I do have some extra tickets available if anyone is still in need. A friend and I both grabbed seats, and then managed to get some better ones.

We've got section 108 available. And Centre Floor row 14 (which is 7 rows from the stage in that section).

If anyone's interested, or knows someone who is, send me a PM.

Hello everyone going to the TO show...

I wanted to let you know I'll call the ACC tomorrow to check on cameras, etc, and post the information on the boards tomorrow.

A bit of a difficulty: My friend who I'm picking up from the airport has had to change her flight to later, so we won't be at the barricades until a bit later in the afternoon. We'll come and find you though! Can't wait to meet you all!

Hey Guys,

Guess who was on the radio today?? DAVID COOK via PHONE of course. Well, he said that he is REALLY excitied to come to TORONTO and totally can't wait. As well he said that the album is going to come out in mid November. He IS going to have a tour...he is going to have on in the Phillipens first and then he is going to be doing a US tour from what he said. Then David said something about how he will go wherever people demand him so that is great. As well the radio guy said something about how he is going to LOVE it here and want to come back and David was like "THATS WHAT I HEAR" It was a pretty sort interview but it was so great to hear him on the Radio.

See you all on sat!!
