I was super excited to finally be seeing TLC and Shaggy live. When we got to the venue we had to wait In line easily 45 minutes. And though it was a long wait to get through security, I’m thankful for the check but really they could have been more thorough. Once inside, there were plenty of bars and I was glad they had non alcoholic drinks at the bars as the 2 food trucks were lined up all night. We did wait for the poutine truck and had decent meal but one or even two more truck options would have been better. It was nice they had picnic tables but again, they needed more. Same with the bleachers, it would have been nice to have way more since I am short and could hardly see the stage. We weren’t interested is squeezing up to the front & we’re happy at the back other than the tall boobs who would stand right in front of us lol.
DJ Harman is amazing. He always has a great set to pump up the crowd & the music sounded great when he was on. Alittle echoing but it wasn’t bad at all. When TLC came out, they were great too. I was so happy to finally see them live. Their sound was also a little echoey but you could at least hear the songs. Then Shaggy. Omg. It was so bad. I don’t know if they cranked the music or what happened but it was so loud I had to plug my ears and even then it was too loud. I attend many concerts in many venues and this was by far the worst!! I am disappointed to say we left because it was too loud, to the point I was nearly deaf when we got outside. I don’t have any hearing issues nor am I just being fussy old person lol! It was so loud you could hardly understand the songs and it literally hurt to stay in the room. I wear an Apple Watch and it said the noise was over 100 decibels!!! It was simply way too loud. Would I go see these artists again? Absolutely!!! At the expo centre? NEVER.
