Re: Sinister: Neil takes on the world! Round One!+ why Neil is great.
The price of the tickets in Canada I must say is fair. The "convenience charge" of $6.50 per ticket cannot be attributed to the band, nor our grievous taxes or even our floundering dollar. I apologize for this Canadian but I am so thrilled B&S are finally coming to Toronto again and to a gorgeous venue, extra bang for your Canuck buck. This "fan" should start saving for merchandise now :p I know many people who were aghast at the price but everyone understood it was mainly due to our dollar...I'm assuming this Canadian is out of touch with Paul Martin and our recession. Toronto is increasingly being overlooked as a place to stop on tours b/c our ticket prices need to be ridiculous...which often turns off younger fans. It has meant that twice in the last year I've had to go to NYC to see shows. Anyhow I absolutely believe B&S will sell-out their T.O. show. Any mention/guesses/rumours of who will open?
Can I be on the guest list in Canada to see someone have their lights punched out?
So in conclusion: Neil wins and retires with the millions of Euros/dollars/marks/pesos that they personally makes from every single concert. Especially those in Canada where the B&S/Matador/banchory mantra for the tour is
If We Don't Get The Dough The Band Don't Show
