Ended up standing in 318 last night. My obstructed seat in 317 was really, really obstructed. Like, looking straight at a wall obstructed. It sounded incredible, to be honest. Only other time I've sat rear stage was for McCartney last month in Hamilton. That didn't sound great, but the speaker set up wasn't positioned to the rear because it wasn't a full 360 show. The Hip's set up does this and you can tell the difference.

Thankfully, no one came and booted me - although the last row of seats in front of us was virtually empty, so there was a place to go for Plan C.

I'm glad to hear the obstruction notice is a bit of a false alarm for 310. I picked up a ducat for TO2 up there this earlier this morning. After last night, my desire to be at all three Toronto shows got that much stronger.

yeah im honestly kicking around the idea of buying a standing room ticket for sundays show after watching last night from 310. Good to know that some of the rear 300 level seats are actually obstructed though. i'll steer clear of there. It will be hard to sit home on sunday knowing that the hip are playing another amazing show so close to home.

two pics from 310S from last night. The only "obstruction" is that the ceiling blocks the scoreboard, which at a hockey game could be considered an obstruction i guess.

Thanks for the head up. It won't live up the the front row shows or States side shows I have been to, but not as horrible as I initially expected either. Like I said earlier, beggars can't be choosers. I missed out on every presale out there, so just happy to finally be in the door.

I am in 317 Row 17 tomorrow night... Almost bought Standing today instead but stuck with these. are they OK? Only 4 seats in that aisle... I have 2 of them...

From this chart, it looks like they should be OK and I was looking up there last night and it seemed like they are far enough right to be OK?

EDIT: Section 310, just plain horrible seats, but beggars can't be choosers at this point! Still banking on a lottery win though hopefully.

Thats a section away from me. 309 here. Pulled these during the presales.

If you're the two seats closest to the aisle, I like your odds better than two closet to the wall. I was row 13 seat 13 initially - three in from the wall. It wasn't pretty.

I've got 317 Row 11 Seats 11, 12 tomorrow night and didn't have any 'obstructed view' noted...according to the map, 1-22 goes left to right, yes? Hoping we won't have issues, although hotmetal401's row 13, seat 13 report isn't filling me with confidence. Staying hopeful like Torontonian69. Like others, just happy to be in the building.

19 and 20, there is only 19, 20, 21 and 22 in that row... so you are next to us. See you tomorrow!

We are a few rows up in row 12...if the two beside you end up open, we may join you. A little concerned about the view but at least there are a few suggestions here (back of 318)...definitely will drop by and say hello!

So looking forward to Sunday night's show.

It'll be the 12th time I've seen this great band and yet the first time in Canada (most shows in western New York and one in Pennsylvania; my wife has also seen them in Alberta since she's an Edmonton native).

I have a feeling this is gonna be really special, like best-concert-ever special.

And for the record I don't think they're done and never did. I'll bet they head into the studio to work on a new album very soon.

This is gonna be something.
