If I'm not mistaken there's an OK hotel at the longueuil metro station (which is one stop away) 5-10 min drive from there you'd even find some sleezy motels if that's your cup a tea lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Gunner Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 could the fact that they released more pit tickets just mean that they decided to make the pit bigger? its not sold out yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got 4 Right PIT tickets on presale, but 2 of my other friends who bought them recently are on the left side. It's weird because they don't tell you which side you're on until you complete the order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izzyzz Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) I'm not surprised, we're in a bit of a quiet period in terms of ticket sales... You see the most hype when the shows are announced and tickets go on sale and then right before the show. Haven't planned anything yet wrt Montreal trip, still lots of time to figure things out.

fallglimmer Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 there is a good sized wall sign in the Bell Centre advertising the show, outside the gates. I couldn't get a good photo due to the number of people around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzyzz Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Looks like they're almost sold out of the PIT, just 1 ticket remaining... So I don't think they've increased the PIT size, just sold it in blocks (right then left sides). At least, that's my hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Gunner Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 not sure why they would pick a band like our lady peace or billy talent. i get that its a canadian band but i dont consider either of those two bands as even really being the same genre as gnr. who has the final say on this shit? the promoter? when baz opened in 2010 well that made sense. this really doesnt... not going for the opening act so i couldnt give two shits if they just played talk radio before gnr's set but our lady peace certainly doesnt give me the urge to stand in line 5 hours for the rail... im actually starting to wonder if they pick shitty bands on purpose in certain cities so that the crowd isnt all riled up in case axl shows up late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
