Holy shit, can you imagine....

This is very intriguing....although I'm sure the promoter would bring in temporary stands for such a venue. Man this still seems like a long shot, it would be the most obscure venue of the entire 360 tour without a doubt.

Does anyone have any information about this place? I found an article dated Jan. 17/09 saying it was closed, but it was on the 3rd page of Google... � A New Opportunity • Spacing Montreal
Besides that, I read some reviews saying it was run-down, difficult to get to, etc.
I got my tickets for Toronto this morning, maybe I'll just stick with that...

It's a field, a race track.

Really looking forward to this interesting venue. I was just at the Woodbine Racetrack last week and thought to myself how cool it would be have a big concert at the tracks.

It's gotta be pretty good because I know places like in Santiago, Chile they've used the Club Hipico which is also a racetrack to host several bands such as Iron maiden and most recent Depeche Mode.

i hinted at the fact they could install bleachers like they use at the Grand Prix du Montreal. But it might be a cluster fuck.

anyone know if tickets will be sold through Admission.com?

Some website (casinocity.com) mentions grandstand capacity of 25,000.
