Anyone drivng from downtown Toronto to the Joe Convention
« on: March 28, 2007, 11:51:44 PM »

hey anyone driving from downtownish to the joe convention?

I am askng cause there is about 2-3 of us coming from Toronto (dufferin & queen area) and are currently thinking about taking the go train to Hamilton (then a cab to the convention) so that's $18 each for go train (x2 -3) plus cab (what about $10-15) so with gas prices these days, wondered if anyone going would rather us chip in for gas money?

I have no problem picking up people.  Confirm whether it's 2 or 3 people.  Since I am picking up another person from downtown T.O., three people in the back of my Sunfire will be cramped.

One rule I have. 

- No smoking in my car (and this includes if you decide to smoke just before getting in the car as the smell still lingers)

Doors open at 10:30.  So I figure around 9-9:30 AM. 

PM a phone number so I can a heads up once in the the area for pick up.

Pete, should we hit dinner, will you be driving these guys home first?  :shifty:

Also, I SERIOUSLY suggest you check the Canadian Idol web site - there's some big block party and audition thing in Toronto the same day as the Joe Meet.

I could just picture you stuck in traffic due to that. :-)

Or worse, Jon forcing you to stop so that he can sing in it, and you missing the meet altogether.  ;-)

I'm actually shocked Jon has never gone out for it - as lame as it is - it DOES get people exposure - if I were in a band I'd take every chance to promote myself.

Canadian Idol is at Yonge and Dundas.  So it's not in the area I have to drive through.

And Canadian Idol is looking for more pop shit singers. Music I can't stand.

I'm going to start linking randomly to backyardigans and lazy town songs if you guys don't stop witht he Avril crap. This is not a hollow threat - children's mustic is far more dangerous and addictive than pop.
