Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: Madman 666 on November 24, 2009, 01:09:31 PM Hey guys. New here and driving from the States for this show. I have never been to Winnipeg before and am looking for some stuff to do. Will probably only stay there two days maximum. I'm a history nerd so right now I've got the legislative building and the mint on the agenda. I looked in a couple tourism books and it looks like Winnipeg kinda shuts down for the winter so I desperately need some suggestions.
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: saz on November 29, 2009, 11:30:25 PM im going with four friends. we're on the floor. cant frikkin wait
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: saz on November 30, 2009, 05:57:23 PM hey MADMAN, if your into history go to the forks as well... and then maybe this little restaurant close to the forks called "times change". they have good mexican food, and usually have a good band playing. or you can also go to the kings head pub for some good beer
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: Madman 666 on December 01, 2009, 01:29:16 AM Thanks for the suggestion...the Forks looks pretty badass so I'll check that out. Any meet up planned before the show? Name the place and I'll be there.
I've actually got lower bowl seats, 3 sections back on stage left. Hope you all enjoy the madness on the floor. Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: saz on December 03, 2009, 10:23:44 PM i just hope axl doesnt kick me or my friends out !! lol. but im sure he wont care if we're drunk as fuck and having a great time
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: TempletonPeck on December 09, 2009, 02:47:34 AM I will be on the floor, ballin' out of control. This will definitely be the best concert Winnipeg has seen since 2006 (when they last came).
That is, if the concert happens. I'm checking ticket availability, and it seems there are a ton of tickets left. You can seem to get 8 tickets in any section I've looked in. Has anyone heard how ticket sales are going here? I haven't heard a single thing about this concert. Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: TempletonPeck on December 09, 2009, 02:50:50 AM For Madman, Winnipeg is more akin to a large town than it is a city. I've felt that way since we lost the Jets. With temperatures dropping down to -50 degrees celcius with the windchill in January, all of your activities should be indoors. The Forks is most enjoyable in the summer, so if you ever plan on coming back I would do it then.
I also suggest the Planetarium. Our zoo is below average quality, but in winter I wouldn't even bother. If you want to do any shopping, the best mall we have to offer is Polo Park (not too impressive, but it works). Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: Madman 666 on December 09, 2009, 12:46:05 PM Temp thanks for the info. I hear Winnipeg is called Winterpeg. I love cold weather and the last time I traveled to Canada in the dead of winter was awesome. Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal.
Canada freakin' rules. If I could live life over again I woulda moved up there to go to school or something...just for a short time, cause I love Iowa (my home state). Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: bananasforaxl on December 16, 2009, 04:21:41 PM Dear

http://www.winnipegsun.com/contests/2009/12/18/12206326.html There's actually a form being printed off in the Sun between Dec 22 and the contest deadline that you have to fill out... guess they haven't got on the online contest bandwagon just yet. Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: saz on December 29, 2009, 01:56:56 AM two more weeks from tomorrow. this is gonna be fun
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: Madman 666 on January 05, 2010, 12:59:13 AM ya know, after hearing those Japan bootlegs I feel a bit spoiled. It is unreasonable to expect a 3+ hour show but if I can just hear Prostitute and There Was a Time I don't give a shit what else they play. Regardless I have a feeling it is going to kick major ass.
Title: Re: January 13th - Winnipeg, MB @ MTS Centre Post by: saz on January 09, 2010, 12:36:34 PM it was -30 degrees celsius the other day but apprently its getting warmer towards the show. forecast looks like it should be -4 celsius or so which is allll goood in the hood
