Since they played only one show on Sept. 26 2005 in Toronto no other shows have been added. The largest city in Canada and they avoid it like the plague.

How can you avoid the one of the largest cities in North America? I have seen them in Toronto many times as they used to always play there early in the tour and at the end as well.

They host them for the rehearsals and warm up club show, you would think that another visit would be a given. Very disappointing, especially for Buffalo fans.

considering also how much they love the town to we only get one show.. the club warm up show doesnt count in my opinion either. i mean regina got two shows...boston got what 5? new york 6? and 3 of them are club shows. i understand that toronto got more shows then most of the countries in europe but i mean if you like a town play it if not rehearse in NYC or boston or chicago.

The main reason the Stones rehearse in Toronto is because Cohl is from Toronto and because of various tax laws, it's more beneficial for them to rehearse outside of the US (not sure of all the legalities involved but I think it also has something to do with length of work visas, etc). If Michael Cohl was from Montreal, you can bet the Stones would have done all their rehearsing there instead.
I'm sure Cohl himself realizes that the Stones have oversaturated the Toronto market over the last several years and that if they returned, Rogers Center would probably have lots of empty seats like they just saw in Chicago and will see in LA.

That's why the Air Canada Centre is directly across from the Rogers. You could always count on a few shows in Toronto, at least I did. I makes no sense to me.

well considering that boston has no where the population that toronto has i dont see how you can say they have oversaturated the market with one show on this tour? the rogers center was sold out on this tour. if ever a market was not appreciated and respected it is toronto...chicago, new york and boston are treated like thier stuff dont stink but toronto is the red headed step child..

Should we sue?
As the red-headed stepchild we might be able to get child support.
