Holy oh my fucking god. I'm so excited. I heard they confirmed it on the radio tonight... 89.9's guiving away tickets on the morning show, so listen in if you're awake :)
I'm so excited. This is gonna be show number four.. FINALLY in my hometown. NO TRAVELLING!! I'm so excited.
Tickets go on sale Saturday at 10 from ticketmaster. I AM SO TEHRE, I LOV EYOU INTERNET BUYING. Does anyone know if thre is gonna be a pre-sale?
Do you all want to meet up, say, 10 hours before the show or so? We'll stake the front of the line if it's general admission..
..which somehow I doubt it will be, because the corel center is notorious for doing seated fucking rock concerts (finger eleven, our lady peace)..
And for you finger eleven fans, they're in ottawa june 8, 9 at Capital City Music Hall.
AHHH SO EXCITED!

Ooooh it's not through ticketmaster... it's through capital tickets.. good to know :) Thanks! I really hope the corel centre has a gneral admission thing going on.
It's funny, I am SO excited about this.. I actually dreamt about it last night, that it was a seated concert.. but it was weird because I was late getting there, and I missed Seether and 3DG.. but the concert was in a university classroom, and Amy and the band were really close to everyone, and no one was in the front row, so I sat there instead, and I kept looking for posters to steal ;)

If you go to the capital tickets website, and look for ev, and then the extra info, they show the seating chart. THERE IS GENERAL ADMISSION!! I AM GOING TO PEE MY PANTS!! I am also going to be in line, like, three days early.

I WISH he worked at a radio station. Then he`d probably get cool stuff like that all the time! it`s just the company that he works for that gets tickets to concerts and stuff at the corel centre ahead of time sometimes. They put employees who want to buy them in a draw. No backstage passes sadly..

I woke up late!! At ten after ten.. I had nightmares I couldn't buy my tickets. However, I have them (though I've got to pick them up at the box office) and they're general admission. I know it has a row/seat number on it, but it's floor GA - they just do that to keep track of how many tickets are sold.
Who's up for waiting hours and hours and hours before the concert to be in the front? :D
Webmistress87
05-15-2004, 10:44 AM
I bought them online right at 10:00 AM! Seeing as I'm short (although not incredibly so), we bought first level tickets so I could still be close to the stage, but be able to actually see :D And I'll be there super early!
Falling_Forever
05-15-2004, 05:07 PM
So you're not general admission? Good choice, I think, if you're short. :) Still, even if you have a seat, wait early with me!! :)

You might be my saving glory. How late can you stay out after the concert?? We cfan try to meet the band. My otehr question is, do buses run near the corel center? Kanata's such a bitch (no offense)... I livei n Gloucester, it's going to take me forever. We should have a crazy EV SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPOVER!!! hahahahahahahaha.
Webmistress87
05-16-2004, 04:24 PM
I'll try to stay as late as I possibly can! I'm going to the show with my aunt (she's an Ev fan, she really wanted to come with me), so I'll work it out with her. I would really love to meet the band! As for your second question, yes buses do run by the Corel Centre, although I unfortunately don't know any specific bus you should take. I'll be there early, and leave late, and hopefully we'll meet up :)

Ah, i live like an hour away from the corel centre. Sucks to live in carlsbad springs. I'd probably be able to get my dad to drive me there for 7-8 though on his way to work. If someone lives on the way and needs a ride i might be able to give you one. That's a maybe though..my dad might just drop me off at saint-laurent or something and tell me to take the bus. :rolleyes: busses are evil..

BEST.CONCERT.EVER!!! Best concert anyone could ever go to! Seriously, it was incredible, theres no words really, Amy was amazing, She sounded GREAT! I got there at around noon, We found the tour busses really quick... We waited about a half hour and then we see this girl with long black hair come out of a tourbus my friend was flipping out, she was like "MARIA!!!---" i was in the shade cuz it was so freaking hot, but yea,i ran to the gate and i jumped around a bit, haah, anywys she opened the side door thingy where there bags are and stuff, and she started going through her suitcase, twas kinda funny, I dunno why... But anyways, When she was done, Shaun came out and they walked into the venue 2gether and we were like AMY!! Shaun!! Amy looked up and she smiled and waved, twas so cool, Shaun came out like 5 times, we didnt get to meet them though, anyways Amy came back out a few hours later with Rocky and went into the bus and came out a few minutes later, and Amy had rollerskates on! and she waved and smiled at us again............. but yea ok, the concert was so awesome, I cant wait till next time, haha b4 my immortal she asked the people to sing along, they all did for like the 1st verse, and she said thanks were all great (or something around those lines) and then at the 2nd chorus she let us sing, but people wernt singing anymore (well i was..) i lmao.. idunno why, i was so happy to be there..... Oooh and I was like the only one jumping around and standing in my section!! Well there was maybe like 1 or 2 here and there, but yea those people were so boring, I had so much fun rocking out by myself, lmao! Ooooh and Broken was AMAZING live!!!!!!! Whew I cant wait till next time I think thats it for now, Ill tell you more as I remember...

EVANESCENCE
Corel Centre, Ottawa
Monday, July 19, 2004
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTTAWA -- I'm having a hard time understanding how a voice so smooth and high could make me feel like Kramer in that Seinfeld episode.
You know the one in which the sound of Entertainment Tonight host Mary Hart's pleasant banter kept causing him to have a seizure?
It's just hard to understand why the very ordinary Evanescence -- who produced a debut album with several synthetic hit songs barely indistinguishable from one another and one very overwrought ballad -- have made it so very big.
They've sold more than 10 million albums since Fallen was released in March of 2003, earned two Grammys, lost a founding member and toured relentlessly.
A band with strong Christian roots -- they're not Megadeath, but those origins have all but vanished -- the band seems to have weathered the loss of founding member Ben Moody, likely due to the focus on lead singer Amy Lee.
With her Elvira-esque hair, the outspoken 22-year-old Little Rock goth goddess -- the one who reminds me of Kramer and Mary Hart -- is to be admired for espousing a healthy girlpower that doesn't involve bare midriffs, tiny puppies and handbags or eating disorders to her young fans.
Four bands
Last night's show at the Corel Centre (as the big finale to a four-act night), drew 7,600 people and captured the dark appeal which has surely made the band so popular. My allergy to Lee's voice aside, it was a no-nonsense, capable effort from a group with a full year of practice playing to crowds in stadiums across North America.
Puffs of mist drifted from backstage while the band prepared to go on. By the time they took the stage, the right mystical underworld effect had been created. Lee bounded out, all black hair and ethereal white flowing skirts (over pants, how chic) and proceeded with her high-pitched wail, which became just as monotonous after about six songs live as it sounds on radio in the middle of one.
That didn't stop the crowd from going wild for the maudlin, nonsensical ballad My Immortal, singing every drippy, "When you cried I wiped away all of your tears," word and screaming in delight as Lee got all Barry Manilow on the baby grand.
"Hit it," she yelled, as the crowd took the mike.
In the end the band reproduced well on stage, sounding better and heavier live -- boosting even the ballads -- than their overproduced studio stuff on the familiar Going Under, Bring Me To Life and newer Everybody's Fool.
Just an hour
But at just over an hour in length -- no wonder they have so many bands on tour with them -- the show was, like the music, nothing special.
The evening started with up-and-comers Breaking Benjamin, moved on the South African-born band Seether (lead singer Shaun Morgan has dated Lee for more than a year; the pair sing together on Broken, another heartbreaking ballad getting lots of radio play and turning up on Seether's Disclaimer II).
Next up were Toronto-based heavy rockers Three Days Grace, a band born in the tiny Peterborough-area town of Norwood.
Listening to lead singer-guitarist Adam Gontier belt out (I Hate) Everything About You I have to wonder just how long those powerful pipes are going to last.
My throat hurt just listening.
But at least I didn't feel like I was Kramer hearing Mary Hart.
Damn, some of that was harsh :(
My Immortal...nonsensical :confused:
Webmistress87
07-20-2004, 07:55 AM
That *is* harsh--I have no idea how that person got that from the show. I do not lie when I say that Amy was magnificent live, and that the show was amazing. My guess is that the reviewer wasn't so keen on the band when they first came out, and that carried on into their work. However, it is a known fact Ottawa reviewers seemingly always give harsh, unfounded reviews, they've done it in the past. Plus, the Toronto reviews were good. I don't know how they got that from the concert.

I still like the insult that "Evanescence is like a pickachu painted black" a whole lot better. At least that one made me giggle. And what does puppies or handbags have to do with anything? *shakes head*
I'm all up for people not having to like the music they review, but there is no need to be so evil.
I really liked this picture :)

Yeah, I think that was as positive as the reviewer was going to get. He may as well have said, "At least she isn't Paris Hilton." Which, of course, has nothing to do with anything.
The reviewer really had his claws out didn't he?

What a fucking amazing concert. Out of the four it's the best I've seen.
We got there around 11.. at about 1 I went back to the busses to see if anyoen was there. Shaun waved at us, and Terry waved at us too, and so did Will and Rocky. I didn't see Amy at all but JOHN CAME OUT TO THE GATE AND SIGNED FOR THE FIVE OF US!!! So I got a picture with him which was super.. and I gave him the present I made the band and he took it back with him.. that was cool. We talked a little about what it was like touring Europe and Finger Eleven..
And then he had to go, but he was so nice..
The concert was fucking amazing... there are no other words to describe it. I was rightin the front row and it was just... phenominal. The energy and clarity of it was just super - a little loud (ie, hard to hear Amy even in the front bvecause everyone sang) but super good... I was so happy to be the only one in the front who seemed to know BReath No More ;)
Security was really pissy about pictures, so I only snapped a few because they threatened to take away my camera..
After the show I ran back to the busses with hope of meeting.. it wasn't until about 12:45 that Amy walked from the stage door to the bus. She didn't come over (there were like 50 people there, I wouldn't have come over either).. people started to leave and when there was a crowd of about 15 left (by this time it was almots 1:30) John came back out. He signed more stuff and took more pictures and this guy walking by earlier (crew) had handed me a drumstick.. John told me it wasn't rocky's but he signed it anyways, and we complimented him on the show. He took a huge banner someone had hand-drawn on banner material back to the bus and got everyone to sign it for this guy. When he came back he had guitar picks - autographed - and as he gave them out he said, "Please let me have enough, oh, please let me have enough.." Hee. He mentioned his wife was going to kill him for hanging out so long and then she actually came out and stood with us, it was pretty funny..
Then he took the letter I'd written to Amy, and said she wasn't going to come out because she was a little tipsy and didn't want her fans to see her like that. We laughed and waited around another 10 minutes or so and hten left.
It was so super!!

It woulda been cool to meet John, We were at the gate @ the top of the hill, We saw someone signing autographs , by the time we ran down there he was leaving so... But its cool u got to meet him! But he waved at us a couple of times... Terry and Will and Shan too... and Amy! It was fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my stupid digital camera wasnt working all day, so I got no pics of the band walking in and out of the busses and the corel center, and by the time I got it to work we were inside the corel center and the nthe guy said to put it away or else hes gona confiscate it! I was so pissed! but it was an AMAZING CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! best outta 4, huh?!? THATS COOL!! lol!

Ahhh it was AWESOME!!! i got lots of pics. had the avoid the friggin camera nazi in our section who kept pointing a flashlight at me though. I managed to film a few songs too with my digicam. Broken, some of bring me to life, and i dont remember what else. lol..waiting for my cam's batteries to recharge, i'll post the pics later and ill try to figure out how the put the videos online..
I can't believe John came to see us!! that was so awesome! Though i couldnt stop shaking and that was just embarassing lol. i was like "can i take a picture with you?" and he said "ok, but you gotta stop shaking first!" and he signed my shirt! :D Falling_Forever just walked right up and introduced herself to john while the rest of us were like "holy crap it's john!!".
LOL when Shaun knocked over the mic. did he do that on purpose? it was hard to tell. Seether was awesome!!! how does he sing with all that hair in his face?!
Catharsis, i saw you throw that tshirt lol i was like "its snow white guy!" and ppl around me were like "what..?"
Maria im pretty sure i saw you.. were you walking back and forth in front of the corel centre with 5 other girls? you're so lucky you got to see amy and shaun!

That's why I love John and always will :) He's such a cool guy and loves hanging out with the fans. I've seen him the most out of the shows I've been to. I hope I see him at least again on thursday. I would be kinda bumbed if I didn't get to meet any of them at all being my only show on this tour but oh well. I need to stop worrying about it so much :p

I love when that happens. Aside from the hardcore EV fans (some of them didn't even know Zero or 4th of july though ;)) no one knows those songs. I rem at a couple of my shows I was the only one that was jumping around and singing along to ZERO and Amy kept looking at me lol. I saw one of the crew that was watching from the side stage staring at me cuz I knew all the words and the order of the sogns and they were like :eek: It was fun singing to 4th of july and having Will look at me cuz almost no one else knew what song it was ha ha :p

I'm all up for people not having to like the music they review, but there is no need to be so evil.

I couldnt take pics cuz the security butt head was like "Put it away or im gonna confiscate it" and since it wasnt my camera I couldnt that a chance.... But I gave my disposible one to my friend in GA and he took a whole bunch for me that I will be going to get today or tomrrow

wow those pictures are AWESOME! ah i'm jealous :) sounds like you had an amazing time. i love all of amy's outfit. for the t.o one she was wearing a skirt like the one at your concert, but it looked much heavier, was kind of shorter at the front, and no pants. but she was wearing these kick ass black leather boots. lol

Mine was in my face too, and it drove *me* nuts, lol. I guess he's just used to it by now.
And I agree with you about the girls. They should have called them! I mean, two 14 year olds heading BY THEMSELVES to Vancouver? Now *that's* a recipe for disaster. I hope nothing happens to them, and that things turn out alright. I feel really sorry for their families to have to endure this.

I loved the concert in Ottawa!! It was my first time seeing Evanescence In concert.
I came to Ottawa to study english from Mexico, and I was told Evanescence was having a concert, I couldn't belive it, then I went to buy my tickets not knowing if there were some left, there were some and I bougth one, It was incredible thet I would see my favourite band live withouth even planning it!!!
then, the day of the concert I had a so great time!! it is much better to hear the songs live, Amy has a wonderful voice.
I was jumping, singing and screaming like crazy, I was one of the few people in my area that went so crazy.
I loved My Immortal, it's my favorite song. I haven't heard toughtless and broken before, I liked them very much!!
amazing concert!!!

I just wanted to say that I am in this picture. I can't describe how I look cause it's all blurry, but I am beside the short guy with the longish dark hair nearish to the bouncer..
I love Evanescence more with every day.. since I heard them almost three years ago I've just been insane..
