CBC.ca is going to be doing a webcast of the entire day of concerts. I so wish I was going. sigh.

Here's a list of who is going to be there playing - it's AWESOME (and then the Stones are the last group - man they are going to be rocking in Toronto tomorrow)

Quote:

The Rolling Stones are headlining a day-long concert in Toronto on July 30 with the express purpose of helping the city shake off its SARS hangover.
Concert promoters expect to have 430,000 in Downsview Park, a former airbase, for the event, making it the largest one-day ticketed event in North American history.

The show will include performances by The Stones, AC/DC, Rush, The Guess Who, Justin Timberlake, Blue Rodeo, The Tea Party, Sam Roberts, The Flaming Lips, Kathleen Edwards, The Isley Brothers, Sass Jordan, La Chicane and Jim Belushi-Dan Aykroyd and Have Love Will Travel Revue.

Organizers hope it sends a message to the world that Toronto is a great city, not one to be avoided for fear of SARS.

And they are using the event to raise money for SARS related charities.

CBC.ca will provide coverage leading up to and on the day of the show.

Thanks Addams - I was wondering how they were going to go about getting it out - I know that Calgary has a sat link to the Saddledome (to support the mad cow as well as the sars crisis) but Edmonton wasn't able to.

Thanks for the reminder at the mad cow situation.

One mad cow and Canadian beef is being banned all over the world. It's been a frustrating time for Canadians economically and I hope everyone wears their GO CANADA T-shirts tomorrow.

not sure if you heard about the "dash to the border" that happened this past weekend or not - but they had a HUGE caravan of trucks (and whomever else they picked up along the way - some even on horseback) who started out in Edmonton and drove down to the Coutts border crossing and had themselves a big-ol BBQ

No I did not hear about this. Thank goodness you are here to let us Ontarians hear about the rest of the country. We are so insular in the news we get sometimes.
