Can somebody answer my question?
Is parking along Hastings still free and if so, for what time limit?

This is why you take transit there  MUCH cheaper. I'm not sure I want to go... I usually work as a foreman during the summer, but I just started a new job and I don't get my vacation until October so I couldn't take the 2 weeks off... is it worth it to go? Or is it the same old stuff?

I have two friends that live a block from the PNE, so free parking WOOT!
One is an RS member, so if you read this, thanks for the parking today
Bryan Adams concert was awesome, he put on a really good show, and Beach Boys were pretty good too. Watched Kevin Costner's band as well, he surprised me, the guy can sing and his band has skills.

Damn, the hell are ppl charging so much for parking. I rather park far away and walk it to save money. Paying for parking is dumb.

Don't worry about not being able to get in. I suspect people line up early so they can get to the $3 charity pancake breakfast, get tickets to the shows, etc.
