Hello,
I'm sure a million people have already asked this, but here it goes...I am going to Toronto for the show in July! I am thrilled just to be going, but would love to get VIP tickets. I am 5 foot tall, and will be able to hear the music just fine (burried 250,000 deep), but would like to find out what I would have to do to get closer to the stage. I KNOW these are probably impossible to get, but would anyone have any NICE advice on how to get a set. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. I don't have a ton of money to spend, but I do have 4 regular tickets, a free hotel room that I could give away, and I have 2 tickets to the Dave Matthews show in Toronto. Don't know if any of those help, but I would be more than willing to try. Thank you! Janet |

Find out who has extras. That's pretty much the only success you have. I was offered a Molson VIP ticket (good for one Ontario resident guest) for $250. No offense, but if you're only 5 feet tall, I suggest finding a comfy seat under one of the big screens. I think once there, and seeing what it's like, getting to the front will very quickly become a very low priority - I'm sorry to say. |

Greyhound is waiving the companion fare advance purchase requirement and the $15 one-way charge between July 26 and July 30, so every passenger who buys a regular full-fare ticket to Toronto can bring a friend along for free.
