It's hard to slow down when you're picking up speed.

Me too. Duh.
Tickets are on sale. I love Ticketmaster, the show cost an extra $10 Canadian in fees!
Also, it comes out to $27.98 US, so I guess that's something. I got 1 ticket, Left Center.

Cory, we gotta coordinate on the Seattle to Vancouver drive. I believe we've got one other on board as well. |

I was gonna rent a car. Anyone else?
Also, I have an assigned seat. Is the Vogue all seated or can you go into the orchestra pit?
I'm flying into Seattle on Saturday morning. I think I get in around 11.

Cory, I am struggling with my arrival time because it's Rosh Hashana and I'd like to go to morning services. I'd like to ride up with you, and sactochris, essbee, and possibly one other person would like to as well. But right now, my arrival time is 4:00. I'll be working on this over the next several weeks and will be in touch.
Please pm me your flight number. I'm assuming Southwest out of Oakland, right?

Nice looking picks. I like the exterior shot where you can see the movieland arcade just down the street. I guess It might not be in the best neighborhood.

This is insane:
Bus to Buffalo, stay overnight in Buffalo, fly to Seattle, share ride to Vancouver, fly home direct from Vancouver = $250 less than flying direct from Toronto.
If I book what I'm looking at now, I'd get to Seattle at 11 am on Saturday.

There's about 10-15' of space between the seats and the stage, so we better move quickly when the boys come on. The neighbourhood is not at all an issue, and if we're hungry after the show, there's a Cafe Crepe 2 blocks away that is open until 1 or 2am on weekends. It's been my after show go to spot for some time now. |

The neighbourhood is great. It used to be a little dicey but it has been fairly gentrified the last few years. Just a few sex shops hanging on. And only the high priced street walkers. Its actually kind of funny for the people that live there to walk out of their million dollar condos and have hookers hanging out on their doorstep.

If I book what I'm looking at now, I'd get to Seattle at 11 am on Saturday. There's also the get to Minneapolis and drive with Emily option. That'll get you there late Thursday night. I call this the "Fun" option. Of course, it does involve being totally irresponsible and blowing off several days of school and/or work. |
