I don't know anything about that place. You'll likely be fine but I rather spend a little more and get a real hotel. Personal preference.

Make sure you catch the Blackhawks Sabres home opener while you're in town Saturday. The West End is a great hockey bar near that hostel. As is the United Center if you want to go to the game. You can usually scalp standing room ticks out front for relatively cheap. The Bedford is a chic club across the street too. Evil Olive just east of there is a pretty popular dance club. Fatpour is a decent beer bar.

Check out airbnb.com and vrbo.com. It's way better than staying at a hostel and some places are even better than hotels. You can get an entire place or a room in an apartment or house.

LOL OMG I wish I had that kind of money, ha!!! I seriously almost bought Warsaw tickets earlier though and then also went NO WHAT AM I DOING I CAN'T GET TO NEW YORK

I have family in Hermosa so I could plausibly make it financially doable. The problem is more knocking work for 3 days during my busy season.

Feck it. I'm going and I'm gonna blow the doors off of it. I'll watch the AHole Kings raise their Stanley Cup banner Wednesday, Damo Thursday and the head to Vegas Friday. Up 5 large by Saturday.

I feel you, I just bought a Paris ticket on a whim after unsuccessfully trying to get 2 London tickets all morning. Ah well, I was gonna have to fly to London anyway, may as well keep going over to France! :icon_sunn

madhat181 09-17-2014 05:08 PM

jasmineha 09-17-2014 05:18 PM

You won't regret it. The folies bergère is legendary.
And Damien & Paris, that's got to be a great combination.

Of 5 friends and myself who were trying, only one was successful in getting a pair. None of them post here on the Igloo.

Got a ticket for Chicago!! I had to leave a mandatory training at work and hide in the bathroom, but I logged on my phone right at 9:00 and it went right through. Only I never received a confirmation email so I was sweating it, emailed the help address and they resent me a copy, saying I hadn't received the confirmation because they had typed my email address wrong!

Was trying for floor but got balcony for some weird reason, but after reading all of everyone's woes I'm not complaining! Good luck on Friday, it's not over yet, and I'm sure he'll be back in the new year.

I was able to get 2 tickets for The Box as well. thankfully I had no issues at all.
hope you guys are able to get tickets on Friday!!!!!

sjps220 09-18-2014 12:53 AM

Toronto venue holds 1145. There are currently 116 tickets on stubhub, and they've only had a presale.

Why'dYouSingHallelujah 09-18-2014 03:15 AM

I hope I can get tickets or I will cry myself to sleep for eternity.
unfortunately I can't afford scalpers at the moment.

ramiendice 09-18-2014 03:51 AM

Paid $60 for my Toronto ticket.. Stubhub wants $330US right around me. What a joke. Hopefully the real fans get tickets.
