20 May 08 Kanye West & Rihanna tonight at the Bell Centre in Montreal – good tickets ?
Quick lunchtime food and food for thought…
Well, tonight’s the night! The last show I saw at the Bell Centre was the Beastie Boys and man was that a blast. Now granted, I haven’t been a fan of Kanye West since the mid-eighties as is the case with the B-boys but I sure am looking to hearing his words and grooving to his rhythms… as well as those of Rihanna.
I’m in a great seat (in great company mmmm) in the 100 level… and was surprised to see that Kanye tickets are still available … interestingly enough the resale price is about the same for 100-level reserved seats as they are for the floor seats which are general admission. The price for tickets varies between about $140-225 for the good ones (which were about $100 face value)…
I’m looking forward to seeing what it’s like in reserved seating as opposed to being in GA on the floor. I was on the floor for the Beastie Boys and it was amazing… mind you, the arena sound reinforcement systems are designed to throw the sound and therefore a lot of people further back and higher (in the 300, 400 and loge levels) actually felt more bass than I perceived down on the floor.
I sure hope there’s enough low end…

10 May 08 Kanye West at the Bell Centre in Montreal – floor tickets still “reasonably” priced ?!
Well, I was checking out what tickets are being sold for the Kanye West show in Montreal on May 20th at the Bell Centre, and I was a bit suprised to see that many of the floor tickets (which are general admission) are selling for “just $160-225″ which is just about double the original face value – surprisingly low on the part of resellers…
Not that I have $200 for Kanye heheh. Oh true, Rihanna is the opening act.. umm, well, for her….
