Does anyone have confirmation on what type of camera can be used at the Air Canada Centre for the Concert. Can SLRs be used?
As long as it's not a professional camera with a telescopic lense. I have Canon which I took before and it was no problem. I think they request that you turn the flash off or am I mistaken?

I first emailed and then called SRO yesterday, Oct.12th. I was told that the information was just received by them and they were hoping to send emails out within a couple of hours. That was yesterday. Still waiting though....

Thank you for finding out. I'm sure we will receive something before Saturday

One more day to go.

Just a note for anyone driving to Toronto from Detroit area.....I live in London (about halfway between the two) and we've been issued a snow squall warning for tonight and tomorrow. Drive safely! I think I'm going to head into Toronto tonight to be safe...
-
Any ideas on when and where for the limo watch? Flying into Toronto tonight!
-
So I'm searching, and it looks like team buses for sports enter underground somehow, so it's difficult to see the athletes. I'm assuming the limo will enter the same way. But does anyone know where that location is, where it goes underground?

I think it is on the side that faces the Gardiner highway...

Oh, I see it now, thanks! I missed him at my last show last year in Chicago due to work. Tomorrow my hotel is just a couple of blocks away and I won't have anything else to do, so I might as well try! I'm just hoping the weather doesn't make my cold even worse. Does 4pm sound like a good time to show up?

That's the concert I would have chosen to attend if I could choose. It's a rare opportunity to hear Mull Of Kintyre!
-
This is also the show (of the 5 in October) I would have chosen to attend if I was able. While it is pretty apparent that you will get no Tug of War additions, at least you will get Mull of Kintyre. I have never heard Mull live and that alone will be a great treat for those attending. Every time I have seen a performance of Mull on U-tube, it seems like Paul's voice is very good on this song...in his wheel house as they say. Personally, I have attended 9 US shows over the years but unfortunately I have never heard Mull of Kintyre live. Why Macca doesn't ever perform Mull in the States is beyond me. Maybe he thinks the US audience doesn't really know it since US radio at the time was playing the B-side "Girlschool" instead. Consequently, it never became a hit in the US. Personally, I don't think that should be the criteria. Don't underestimate the listener in my opinion. A great song is a great song and many people who have never heard it or vaguely remember hearing it a couple of times, will be motivated to actually buy it particularly after hearing the excitement of the live version. Being in Sales and Marketing my whole life that is the way I think. I am retired now so Macca if you want to hire me for your team, I work cheap.

Not sure when this picture was taken. it might be 2010
If he plays Mull of Kintyre it's usually in the encore after Yesterday. It is very good live but he does need a Pipe band to play the song. It only hit 44 on the Canadian chart. Not a massive hit here either. Maybe some parts of the US don't have the quality Pipe Band needed for the song. He played it in Vancouver, Ottawa, Halifax and in Edmonton but not Montreal or Quebec City for past Canadian dates

Enjoy the show tonight, it's going to be the best one from this mini-tour!
