COMMENTS

David's 2016 tour of North America continues with this concert in the Canadian city of Toronto.

Tickets went on sale on Friday, July 17th at 10am EST, through this link: Ticketmaster.ca although please be aware that demand is incredibly high so you might need to be patient and keep retrying, as they seem to be adding tickets for sale progressively. We also understand that there are a limited number of VIP packages available for this venue.

As an additional incentive, purchasers of tickets online who are resident in North America will be emailed a code, redeemable on the CD of David's new album, Rattle That Lock. This is subject to terms and conditions, which should be available to you from the ticketing website.

WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD!

Do not read on if you don't want surprises to be spoilt, regarding what the band played!

Having finished in Los Angeles, with the three acclaimed shows there in Hollywood and Inglewood, David, the band, and the entire production have moved (rattling) lock, stock and barrel thousands of miles up to Toronto, in Canada. Tonight was the first of a pair of shows.

As expected, things went extremely well, with the audience loving the event. This didn’t stop David having the odd doubts about it. “Are you having a good time here tonight? Please say you are!” David said before his band introductions, although this may have been to encourage an even stronger reaction!

We'd love to know in more detail how the concert went. Did you go? Let us know what YOU thought!

CONCERT REVIEW and PICTURES by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Dave Rogers

I flew with my 10 year old son from Oregon to Toronto. Originally it was supposed to be an anniversary trip for my wife and I but that didn't work out so it became a birthday present for my son. His first trip outside the US, and his first concert.

I think you already have the setlist. After intermission they started back up with Astronomy Domine and were absolutely on it for the second set. Bucket list for me. "And now for something completely different" was David's intro to The Girl In The Yellow Dress...
