RS Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 quote:Originally posted by Paddy Canada, Japan, Russian have been ask to do concerts, too. If they can pull it off in time, it would be great to have a wide range of Canadian artists at Downsview (or a similar open space within other Canadian cities).

Massive Attack Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Yay, lets have a 'charity' concert where Ticketmaster can make a tidy $15 per ticket in service charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I wonder what the ratio is of performers-doing-it-for-legitimate-charity-reasons versus those-just-looking-for-some-more-face-time. With acts like Snoop Dogg, Velvet Revolver and 50 Cent in the mix, and certainly won't all be musical philanthropists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive Attack Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 quote:Originally posted by Danny Boy I heard they were all free shows just for the purpose of awareness. If that's the case, then I take back the remark. I'm just recalling SARSstock which began as a free concert and turned into $20 plus service charges.

Almost makes one think that the CSA is involved. It is still early and I am sure more will come on board, but I echo your sentimentst that this line-up, geographic restrictions removed, wouldn't motivate me to go anywhere but the can. Watch out for a reformed Guess Who/BTO reunion. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
