The Meatloaf Concert and other things I love about living in Toronto

Elect Frances on November 13There are many things in ward 13 and the city that I would like to change or improve. On the other side of this coin you will find the things I love about Toronto and would not change a bit.One of the things that I love is that I am able to see great theatre and music in the city. Last month I was lucky enough to get tickets to see Barbara Streisand and last night I had a great night with friends at the Meatloaf concert. Both of these concerts were held in unique venues. Both attracted a great cross section of people and both were shows that were in limited runs in North America . How amazing that I could jump on the subway to attend these shows that were being held in very few places in North America ! That is one of the unique and exciting things about living in Toronto .When looking at the music scene in Toronto we have it all. Large popular shows that let me relive the good times on Wednesday night at the "Bomb Shelter" Pub (Meatloaf) and the intimate music scene the feeds my creative soul EMILIE-CLAIRE BARLOW, MELANIE DOANE & KATHRYN ROSE "A WINTER'S EVE" at Hugh’s Room( http://www.hughsroom.com/).Move to the Theatre in the city and find the same everything from WICKED to THE DECIDE SHOW (better hurry this one only a few shows left!) (http://www.decideshow.com/) and finally what about the great art in the city. We have the AGO and Gallery One (http://www.galleryone.ca/).These are just some of the things I love about living in Toronto. What are the things you love about living in Toronto ? I want to know. It is important to celebrate what we love as well as address the issues that concern us.So, in the spirit of celebration and having fun here is a link to my favorite Meatloaf song.(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq31BBgYX) . I hope you enjoy it as much as I did last night!
