All right, for those who will be there one of the best reggae bands ever, Steel Pulse, will be playing on the 26th. They have been around since 1975 and put on one of the best live shows you will ever see!

Please don't miss them..trust me! Have fun to all that are going

In a strange way I would rather see them than Prince.....but then again I live in LA

How can it count as 21 nights in LA when he's not anywhere near LA?

One of my best friends is living in Montreal.

He's my guest for the prince concert... and I'll be his guest for the fete nationale du Quebec ! Good deal isn't it ?

A five days trip before travelling back to Paris and the show at the Stade de France.

Just bought 2 tickets on Stub Hub for$295 each. I paid more to get excellent seats at the Forum! So excited about this once in a lifetime experience! Now I have to get a Passport in a real hurry! Anyone know of any good hotels nearby?

Hope you'll find an hotel, I don't know much about them since I live in Quebec, but I'll stay in a youth hostel on 24th and 25th, since the show will end at an insane hour, I can't call my friends to pick me up and there won't be subways anymore..

Well, it's the first time ever I'll see him in concert so I have no idea.. depends if he's doing an aftershow... Depends what he has in mind I guess and how good he feels that night.. and since the show is already at 23h30... well, it'll end early in the morning for sure...

I'm going to get my tickets at he desk around 13h maybe and after that I have to go to by youth hostek room to put all my stuff, I guess I'll have a better idea after getting my ticket.. If there are already people at 13...well... I'll be quick!

There is a concert before Prince. So I don t know at what time they are going to open the door.

I think around an hour before the show.

I know the doors won't open until 1 hour or an hour-and-a-half I think I read on the Métropolis website, but I still plan on getting in line ahead of time to try & get a decent spot in the venue, I'm just not sure how long in advance I'll have to go. I guess I'll keep and eye out and see how it pans out on the 24th (since I'm only attending the 25th show)…

I'm not sure, I can't find where I read that… but I thought it was pretty standard that doors don't open until 1h-1h30min before any show… I could be wrong though.

I'm guessing no. They will look for cameras before the show and not let you in. And his security might ask you to stop and delete any pictures you take with your cell phone. That's what happened at his concerts in LA. Still, some people managed to get some nice photos but you will be taking a risk if you do.

Should we start a lineup signin sheet like the ONa shows?

That way people can step out of line for short breaks and not lose their place?

Am i digging my own grave by suggesting it therefore being the singup guy again? sad
