You too heard the rumor that Timberlake will substitute Taylor on Knocking and Rambler, plus of course Miss You, to celebrate the 10 years anniversary of the SARS concert!

Thought that rumor has been upgraded to confirmed.

Please no guests.

MT on 4 again but would be nice to mix it up a bit - maybe 1 new song?... No Expectations though...lol

Its Stones day in Toronto!!!
Breath it in Toronto, relish it, enjoy your time with The Stones.

As you know, Toronto is one of a handful of cities in North America getting a show, while skipping the rest of us. You are lucky ducks, The Stones love Toronto, they always play well there. I know, I have seen the Stones more times in your fine city than my own and it has always been great.... oh and be even MORE happy that it wont be -15C with 60kpm winds, like back on December 3rd 1989, I am still thawing from that day/night.

Have fun! Have a BLAST, A GAS GAS GAS!...
we'll be here... holding down the fort and probably shooting spit wads at each other

High school students thrilled to sing with Rolling Stones

Members of an Ontario high school choir say they're excited and nervous to sing with the Rolling Stones. The students will join the rock legends on stage in Toronto this Saturday.

[www.theglobeandmail.com]

Picture and interviews with the choir members in The Globe and mail newspaper today. Half a page. Quote:

Melissa (17):
"Everybody (in the choir) was screaming and crying and dropping to the floor. I was just sitting there kind of confused. After it all sunk in I was like, "Oh my gosh, we're gonna be performing with The Rolling Stones!". What other high school choir gets to perform with such a phenomenal group?"

From our house on Lake Ontario, we can look across to Toronto. What a feeling it is to be able to say, "The Stones are there and we'll be seeing them tonight!"

Man, this choir thing is so nice of The Stones to do this for these kids. They are making highlights of some of these peoples lives... how awesome is that?

STONES!!

Was at ACC last night. Not a single hint of the show. No trucks at all. No sign on the board. No nothing. No roadies or visible fans at the Holiday Inn I stay nearby.

I hear the Mayor of Toronto will attending with a front row seat in the Smoking section.

There's a radio rumour saying that there will be a special guest performing tonight - someone who has never played with them before. I hope that doesn't cut into MT's time on stage.

Nice. You're gonna have fun. 9 sounds about but you might want to be in by 8:30 just to be sure. I'm heading in myself, found out it last night, not sure yet but I think I will be in the pit. The situation is still developing...

You are destined for the pit bro, but...

...if they try to put you in the facing backwards seats behind the upstairs HVAC, dont forget to self upgrade. Did you read DG's review of the recent LA and his recommendation on where/how to go? Have fun tonight treacle
