Do you any South St recommendations? Been awhile for me. The only place I can think of by name is The Artful Dodger, a quaint little tavern/restaurant...

I'd also recommend O'niells. As mentioned, its right around the corner from the TLA and their wings aren't half bad either

Anyone know if the show is close to selling out? I have my ticket but a few friends are going to be a gametime decision

Hey is anyone planning on sending the setlist for this show? We don't want to get stuck without the info like with the Quebec city show!

The Artful Dodger and the Dark Horse (both on 2nd St.) and O'Neals are all solid choices for pregaming. The wife and I would be pregaming, but we had to cut a deal with the devil (aka: mother-in-law) for child care just to go and won't be able to bask in the pre-hip show glory. As for a sell-out, my brother-in-law picked up tickets on Monday, so you might be able to pull off a gametime walkup.

Say hi to the TLA for me. It is such a cool little venue. I saw my first hip show there in 2000 and met Gord at a solo show there in 2003. Also, if you're getting pre show eats and beers, you can't go wrong with Jim's Steaks. Best in the city and you can grab a Yuengling! Don't believe the Pat's/Geno's hype! :thumb:

I'm waiting for Fire In The Hole to make its 2009 debut. I'm surprised it hasn't been played yet.
