Find a friend that will pack up and meet you in another country to listen to your favorite performer! Morgan!! Jenny and I did that this weekend in Toronto. We took the day off, took early morning flights, and arrived in time for lunch.
Even though we were technically in Canada, it was the easiest flight and quicker than flying to most places in the US. And if you think we are crazy just know we weren’t alone. My flight to Toronto was filled with locals going to the concert. And everyone we passed on the streets were Toronto tourists for the weekend.
We were there early to see all of the opening acts. Because if I’m going to fly there, you better believe I’m going to make the most of the night.
In between acts, the wind calmed enough for the dome to the baseball stadium to be opened. We had a perfect view of the CN Tower.
While in line for the bathroom, we learned from a local that Canadians are encouraged to avoid travel to the US while Trump is in office. They are encouraged to buy local and avoid supporting the American economy. But many are ignoring the advice and traveling anyway. Interestingly, they are traveling to Nashville, but it is noted we were attending a country music concert so that’s probably not too surprising. The locals loved Americans - even if their leadership doesn’t.
What a show! This was my sixth time to see him, and our guy was great as usual. A couple in our hotel had seen him just as many times and had flown all across the US to see him. It goes beyond saying he has a very loyal fan base.
Even if he didn’t sell tickets, he could survive off his merch sales! The MW gear was flying off the shelves in the merch tents.
