Nathan Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) Just got back from the concert in Quebec City (my first one!). It was GA, so I waited in line all day, and got nearly front row seats. I've been going to tihe festival concerts all week, and the size of this crowd blew me away. It seemed way larger than Santana's 50,000 crowd, and looked more like the 80,000 crowd for Iron Maiden last Friday. Even behind the stage was packed, where they had a screen set up. Will have to wait for the final count. The crowd was absolutely electric, singing to nearly every song, and every instrumental. I'm uploading my pics now, you can see them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/51507192@N05/...57624511548858/ http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4138/4798352530_40c59ab0c8.jpg Edited July 16, 2010 by Nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) Rush was the only group playing last night. Le Journal said the crowd was likely the largest of the festival, which puts the number at (or over) 80,000!

Supersyl Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Not so cool for the guy who's 80 000 rows back... That's why I'm going to Toronto instead! Less than 24 hours!!! Apparently people were in line at 6 AM... That's just crazy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizel Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Man i am soo totally envious of you! I would absolutely love to go to a show with a crowd like that. Great pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jind Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) While it must have been an awesome sight to behold, I'll take the tiny confines of Mohegan Sun with my 10,000 other friends in air conditioned comfort as I really hate big crowds (a little claustrophobic I think) oh yea and outdoor concerts - I'm an arena boy myself.

Outtalove Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I too, like indoors for summer shows, you get the entire light show from the beginning and the weather is never a factor. Saw the Stones in Frisco a few years ago outside and thankfully, the notorius Bay Area weather was kind. very memorable event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
