I don't understand why Canadian Idol are from #1 to 10 instead of the
reverse. I would have thought the organisers would have prefer to keep
the people waiting for the favorites ?

I'm puzzled...

I think it means the 1st one up to sing, the 2nd one up, etc etc

Not the place that they finished on the show.

Ah!

Make more sense. Thanks

Well I was torn about going but my youngest won a 4 pack of tickets to go watch the Toronto FC play soccer tomorrow so I guess we will make a complete day of it...........

Anyone else?

Was tempted to go Bruce.  Found out last night that there were some free tickets floating around the base.  But I've decided to stick closer to home with my couple of days off.  Have a blast, it sounds like it's going to be a great show!

Forgot to mention this................congrats to the TPS for a great show.

My youngest just loved seeing the Canadian Idols and, I must admit, they really could sing.
Everything from the rappeling of the flags from the top of the Dome during the National anthem to the motorcycle entrance with the lights dimmed was top notch.
The 'tribute to the troops' theme for the night was the topper for me ............and apparently the show was taped and will be edited and sent over for viewing.


Of course it would be wrong of me to mention how the Ontario Corrections team smoked everyone else in the nights big event,....the 4X Skydome relay race........so I won't mention that.
