The tour of Toronto...

Still no sign of my bag. Crappy airline with a shit call service. Maybe if the call centre was in the country something would get sorted out. Oddly enough the airline was having job interviews in the hotel. Couldn't resist borrowing a pen from Emma and making an addition to the sign in the lobby. I went up the one floor and said I was there for an interview but as soon as I came in the door and asked how to get my bag back security showed me the exit...

Luckily Vistek was open on a Saturday so went and rented some gear with the Chris (label saviour and great guy!) Made it back in time to the hotel for the shoot and tour of Toronto with the Cancer Bats who are probably the nicest band I've ever met. (They're Canadian of course!) After a few hours of hilarious stories and many locations we had lunch at Sneaky Dee's. Dropped the gear back at the hotel and went for a wander with Emma which was fun and even watched her go broke at the record store!! All this and still no sign of the bag.

Hooked up with Greg and Chris for dinner and then went to the show. Now the Cancer Bats are well worth checking out. A fantastic mix of music and know how to put on a show! After the gig
headed back to the hotel to drop off the camera gear but on the way back no cabbies would take me back to where I needed to go. So after walking all the way back to the venue (narrowly missing getting beat up by a few spitting, drunken, testosterone filled beefcakes) and now with 2 more reasons to hate Toronto finally reached Sneaky Dee's. Luckily Scott from the Cancer Bats offered a ride back to the hotel so left right away as I wouldn't have been very good company... Apart from the people we were hanging out with this weekend Toronto really is not a very nice place! Glad I grew up in the nice part of Canada... Oh yeah still no sign of the bag I needed today!!
