What are the odds of Tom Cochrane not showing up plastered to his show?

planning to go to leon bridges. i've seen wilco several times already, they are great.

bcrdukes 05-08-2025 01:30 PM

Damn, PNE always has better headliners for concerts. The CNE sucks in comparison. Nevermind getting a seat to SuperDogs!

I feel like I've asked this before, but for those of you who have Apple AirPods, are you able to connect multiple devices simultaneously? Or do you need to pair/connect them one by one?

For example, if I pair the AirPods to my PC (Windows 11-based) and I get a call on my iPhone, will it automatically switch? Or do I need to connect the AirPods to my iPhone to get audio? Thanks in advance.

Airpods are not multipoint capable so you cannot do this.

However if your desktop was a Mac, it can do this as iOS/Mac OS can pass calls to each other on the same Apple ID account.

I use Linux so I guess this won't work. :troll: :okay:

American indie rock band. They're definitely not a "Hello Kitty" Asian band. EleGiggle

Flo Rida. :considered:

So instead of just fixing an issue and punishing the re-sellers you punish everyone

edit* the presale code for today is SNCVIRGIN

More like they just took over the scalping. Ticketmaster scalps their own tickets now.

Hondaracer 05-08-2025 02:37 PM

Yea, forcing internal re-sale

It's something I coined for these drivers who back up to drive forward to back up again to move the vehicle to an ideal position. These people are rarely successful as in millimetres or inches if that.

Usually its a chinese person, hence chinese refresh.


When I first said it, my son and his friends just laughed so hard, one of them puked, gulolololol.



You heard it first on RS.

bcrdukes 05-08-2025 03:05 PM

Ok thanks. I thought the Chinese refresh was a CCP initiative to brainwash Canadians on how to properly drive.

chinese refresh sounds wayyy too cool & generous for their level of incompetence and stupidity.

Counting Crows and Lynyrd Skynyrd are blocking off front rows for ~$750 for their own VIP 'experience'. You don't get much value for paying 7x the cost of a normal ticket. Merch and soundcheck for CC seems like a stupid bundle put together to force people to spend a crapload more money just to get a front row seat. At least, Skynyrd VIP gives people the ability to meet the band up close. Their merch is better too.

westopher 05-08-2025 04:56 PM

Didn't Lynyrd skynyrd ummmmmm die like 40 years ago?

Not a single OG band member. Ronnie Van Zant's younger brother is now the lead singer.

mikemhg 05-08-2025 05:04 PM

We got tickets to Sean Paul.

DT Costco might charge $2 parking, but its covered parking is always empty in Level 2 on non-game days. Beats fighting for parking in Level 1 imo.

I went to Still Creek a few evenings ago for their garden center, and that parking lot is almost as chaotic as Richmond.

Can you take the stairs to P2 and no doors? I'd probably start parking there now if you can. I fkking hate sharing the elevator with gross as people and I hate touching parkade doors lol. (I only buy stuff I can hold).

westopher 05-08-2025 07:08 PM

lol just wash your hands dude.

Badhobz 05-08-2025 07:17 PM

downtown costco has quite a limited selection. But its good and bad. Good because they have stuff other Costco's don't (Kirkland in house sushi, sashimi for example) and if you're buying clothing, they actually have more stock and more sizes due to the lower volume of people going there.

But if you need like motor oil (not available at all), or dog food, or even baby wipes and cereal, their stuff is very very limited.
