Concert Night

Downtown Toronto

Train Opener

I met a friend downtown last week as we had tickets to see the Hall and Oates concert. First we had dinner at a nice restaurant.  Unfortunately, due to security regulations I couldn't take my small backback into the concert area and had to check it into a secured area.

The rock group Train opened for Hall and Oates, they sang for about an hour until finally Daryl Hall and John Oates came out. They are now 71 and 70 years old, legends really. The entire show lasted about 4 hours so we got our money's worth!  It was a nice evening out. 

Are  you a Hall and Oates or a Train fan?

On Ticket Insurance

Husband M went online to buy me a couple of tickets to the Hall and Oates and Train concert coming to Toronto in June.  A girlfriend has agreed to accompany me.  We were happy with the tickets he purchased.  However, shortly afterwards we received a second email to acknowledge our purchase of ticket insurance in the amount of an extra $17.  M realized he must have clicked that button in error.  He said you have a certain amount of time to complete your purchase and he was skipping through all the options in a bit of a hurry.  Fortunately, he was able to call the insurance company and quickly cancel the transaction.  No doubt ticket insurance is important these days, but the 2 tickets were not a horrendous amount of money.  Hopefully we will be ok.

I am still not comfortable with some online purchases for fear I might miss something, but it is unavoidable these days.
