i already got my ticket and almost all canadian dates are sold out,including toronto's,also i heard in flames is doing an autograph signing at hmv on younge street in toronto


so who else is going to go to this?

[stallan]

I was going to go with my buddies, get shitfaced (in a limo for Christ's sake) but then tickets sold out.

[mudfan16]

ohh damn its already sold out,i thought there was a few tickets left

[hvymtlmom]

wish I could go! I love In Flames and have yet to see COB live. But for some reason there are no FL shows this time....and there were 3 FL dates last Gigantour

have fun & let us know how it goes!

[mudfan16]

yea and this time i promise i'll take pictures

[hvymtlmom]

just don't get kicked in the head! that JFAC crowd can get pretty wild

[stallan]

I'm thinking that JFAC is going to get treated like shit, seeing as how they aren't taken seriously.

[hvymtlmom]

I've only seen them at SOTU and I wasn't impressed. They don't seem to be a good "fit" with the other bands on this tour.

[mudfan16]

yea i also saw them at sotu,they were alright but your right,they're different from the other bands,i don't think they'll get treated like shit its just they won't get a major crowd response,but then again gigantour always has different types of bands

[mudfan16]

tickets are still on sale for toronto but vip tickets are sold out

[mudfan16]

last night,the show was amazing,awesome,i loved it,i missed high on fire,cuz of the line up,job for a cowboy were pretty good,they really started to get the crowd going,people went crazy for bodom,when they played their set,it was insane,in flames were awesome,great performace,a little disappointed they only played 1 old song,but still good,megadeth were alright,chris broderick did a solo,which i must say even though it was short,it was great,overall,an amazing show,the place was packed,alot of people got hurt badly

i wasn't able to get pics,but i did get to meet in flames at the autograph signing and i got my cd signed,i'll post the pics later today

[mudfan16]

here are the pics,this one is me with peter,anders and jesper of in flames

and this my autographed cd

[hvymtlmom]

Congrats on meeting In Flames! Every review of Gigantour that I've heard so far has been excellent (especially Bodom). Glad you had a good time & hope you weren't one of the injured

[mudfan16]

no luckily i wasn't,lol and thanks
