Never been to Vancouver or in fact Canada before, and will be there for 4 days, so can locals please give us some tips on which areas have the best nightlife, restaurants, any live blues music venues, things to see etc.
Any ideas appreciated. Thanks

Seems like there is no Pit or GA for the Vancouver show.
Looks like all reserved seats on the floor.
Strange?
Maybe TM has posted the wrong seat diagram?

Vancouver's music scene is pretty dismal. Many live club venues have either closed permanently (Media Club, Dover Arms) or have closed then reopened as lame shadows of themselves (Yale, Railway Club) or are on the imminent chopping block (Fairview, Arts Club). All that's left are mostly dive bars near skid row (Pub 340, Ivanhoe, LanaLou's).
There ARE some smaller former movie theatre type venues that host many out of town bands like The Imperial, The Rickshaw, The Fox, and (my fave) The Rio in East Van, but for local bands, it's slim pickings.

The diagram on the TM site is wrong. There will be both pits and GA section.

I saw Andrew Loog Oldham introduce Charlie is My Darling, a bootleg of the movie (before it's official release) at the Rio. Very cool.

If anyone from L.A. is flying in on the day, one-way seats on a pair of Air Canada flights are now US$66. They were between $75 and $130-odd last week.

Won't commit to airfare tickets until I know I have Pit tickets.

i wish i could go to this but due to some serious health issues & finances most likely won't be able to. maybe i'll be able to pull it off later but right now can't commit the cash. also, my immune system is not good so big crowds are out for me. i'm lucky i saw a fantastic show in seattle last year. still somewhat bummed but trying to be smart for a change.

Except they won't be selling seats behind the stage.
Close enough, though.

Got him to sign Out of Our Heads. M
On a totally different note, man I'm so excited, my partner's dad just phoned me a short while ago and told me to get the best possible tickets I could procure and gave me his Amex info. He said it's my birthday present. Damn not even my own parents like me this much. Hoping to score pit in the Amex presale.
