To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules;
Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.
Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up.

I'm meeting my friend at Bier Market near by the Kool Haus to pre drink before the show at 6:30. Doors are at 7 but we're not rabid fanboys that need to be right up at the front of the stage. Send a PM if you're interested in forming a group to head over.
So jelly...if I wasn't so busy with school stuff I totally woulda just headed back to Toronto for the night x.x'

Wish I lived in Toronto...would go to see Apinkuuuu for sure.
Hope you'll live by thread tradition and recount your experiences+take pics? Would be awesome.
It's going to be a long concert. It's a joint promotion from Canadian Music Week and the Korean cultural foundation. Apparently after the "mainstream" K-pop there's going to be indie Korean music acts until 2am. I'm really excited since I haven't been to any concert in a while.
EDIT: Since it's a club show there's going to be a check at the door for recording devices. It's unusually warm in Toronto currently it's over 20C so I won't have any bulky clothing to hide a camera. In any case if I snuck a point and shoot in, the low light + distance will make any picture rubbish. I can understand taking 1-2 pics for the memories but I don't understand people who watch a whole concert though a lens. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
Just want to drop this in here. The Band is called "Onnine Ibalgwan". + Show Spoiler +

Must listen, this song is a real happy-maker. If someone has infos on them and maybe even know what they are singing about, please let me know, i would appreciate it.

I like them because it's better than nothing but if you don't want to I understand.
On another note, signed in to a computer lab at my college and the previous username...was Hyomin. WE HAVE A CITRINE IN OUR MIDST
From Naeun's tumblr. LOL, they are doing the tourist traps while in Toronto! It's so awesome that they are here while the weather is phenomenal. I will definitely try and write something for you guys but my prose is horrible. I'm not very good at descriptive writing but I'll try. Also for you DystopiaX, I will bring a point and shoot (I don't own a DSLR). No guarantees at any decent photos since I plan on being near the back of the crowd anyways. But it will probably give a good idea at the size of the audience. I've been to this club many times for electronic and rock shows. It can get nice and loud in there

Move to a real city.
Dang I thought you quoted me and I was about to go crazy up in this...
Dystopia if you don't mind sharing where do you live? They've had shows in LA and NY are those cities too far for you?
Chicago and Boston. Boston is close-ish to NY but all those concerts happened when I had other shit to take care of and so couldn't go. Also if I recall the NY lineup was shitty, but I may be confused?]
also why can't ya'll Canadians just get along? Thought ya'll were supposed to be all friendly and shit.
Also I live in the Netherlands so kpop here is.....lol.
also if anyone is interested, appearently some new guy group teaser from CubeDC, a new subsidary of Cube(REALLY?CAN'T YOU JUST HAVE 1 LABEL AND NOT MAKE A SEPERATE 1 FOR EACH GROUP?)
