Northern Wish Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 So what is going on during these three days other than the Rheostatics at Massey Hall on the 30th.AND OTHER THAN THE JUST ADDED RHEOS SHOW AT THE HORSESHOE ON THURSDAY MAR 29!!!I am looking to meet up with some folks and have a good ol big city weekend if anyone would be so kind as to give me an excuse to leave my hotel room.I have one extra Rheos ticket (Row 20) and already have a hotel booked for my stay but will have no transportation (especially to and from the airport wink wink).Games, shows, hikes, supper, its all good.Make me have fun!Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really cool store with tons of legit rock shirts and excellent CD prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Photogeek Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Is it the Bond "Place" Hotel on Dundas? If so I have never been, but here are some reviews: reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Hey Jaimoe,You know anything about the Bond Hotel? I have never heard of it, and there are no reviews on priceline.I'm nervous to say the least.........And I will hit that record store for sure.SeanIt's a cheap and central hotel. It's old so don't expect too much. It's right near Ryerson too. You may want to hit up the iconic original Sam The Record Man, just one block north of Bond on Yonge Street. It's huge with some excellent prices.Across the street from Bond is the Imperial Library Pub. It's a great place. Downstairs is kinda divey (with a really cool bar), but upstairs is really cool, with an old jukebox that plays rare 45's from jazz greats. You can also get bottled beer by the quart for a good price. They also make the best whiskey sours I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakis Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 The Imperial Library Pub is a cool place. Went their last year before the david gilmour concert. I like sams but make sure you have some time to look around. Some of their prices are great while other prices are extremely expensive. I find the live phish cds they have are a very good price.

Northern Wish Posted March 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Thanks guys!I like the sounds of the location of that hotel and all, considering the show is only at Massey Hall.Oh and I love Whiskey Sours.........Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 The Dundas-Yonge area is a tourist and teenage trap full of decadence, chain-stores and dives. However, if you walk north to College, you will find a decent and big sports bar called Hoops. Keep walking north on Yonge for more pubs and restaurants. Go west on Dundas for Chinatown. If you head south on Yonge to Front for the Hockey Hall of Fame. Also check out Front and Church (just west of the Hall). Their are some great pubs and restaurants like C'est What. Oh yeah, anything east of Church Street on Dundas is really, really sketchy. The corner of Dundas and Sherbourne and Dundas and Jarvis can be flat out scary. Stay north, south and west young man.
