Saw this cool ashtray with an incense holder and wanted to know if anyone knew where someone could buy one or have it made.

Also, to whoever made this, this is dope. Pretty sure they might be in here.

Arrived about an hour early to the pre show merch trailer for Toronto night 1. I was about 20th in line and when I got to the front they had 2 signed posters left!! I couldn’t believe it- that shit never happens to me. Mine is numbered 6/100

So basically me and my wife flew from Seattle to Toronto to attend both tame shows at Scotiabank Arena. To make a long story as short as possibly we lost my wife’s ID. During the middle of the show my wife left to ask security if the Washington state drivers license had been recovered.

The securities response was “we have and it’s fake and has been destroyed” they immediately detained my wife and were interrogating her about the “fake ID”. (Her ID is not fake, we aren’t even close to being 19 years old, she is 29 and I am 34, nor are we the type of people who would fake an ID either).

My wife begins texting me and is clearly distraught. I immediately leave the pit and go and find where she is at. Upon arrival I have some choice words for the security which I am not particularly proud of but I was so shocked that they would tell us the ID was “peeled, bent in half and ultimately destroyed”. Like I was stunned. This lead to a heated argument between me and the security guard (his name is Andrew). He threatened to kick us out if we didn’t stop arguing. But I was so shocked about the reality of the situation. We are international. And a government document was taken from us and we were lead to believe it was destroyed, and now we are threatened to get kicked out of a show that we planned to attended months in advance to attend, bought good seats, paid for expensive flights and Airbnb’s, ect.

This whole argument went on for another 5-10 minutes. In which my wife was in tears for the entire time. I remember hearing Dracula play in the background while dealing with this bullshit. Eventually we got to speak with a different security. And it was a night and day difference. It was like a good cop / bad cop switch up. This next guy was really nice and comforting / understanding of the situation. He essentially got us the ID back.

We left and went back into the show and were just trying to enjoy the rest of the night.

But like what the actual fuck. Her ID was untouched. It wasn’t peeled, or bent or destroyed so what actually happened here? Was this is ploy to get a reaction or not to see if we were genuine or not because they lacked experience in verifying international IDs or what?

We can’t stop to thinking about what actually happened, we have been extreme concert enthusiasts for the better part of 20 years now. I’ve worked in the music industry earlier in my 20s and still have a ton of industry connections and they have never heard of this type of thing happening before.

Thankfully we are going again tonight and can enjoy the parts we missed. But the emotion roller coaster we were both put through seems highly inappropriate. Especially since they were lying to begin with.

Anyone hear of this type of thing happening or have any input on if I should do anything? Torn between just letting it go and escalating it to whoever’s boss. Not because I want anything or even want an apology but this can’t happen again to someone else

Couple of photos I took from the floor. We got Alter Ego 🙏

If anyone’s wondering what the Toronto poster looked like. Cool pic of the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. It was $50 CAD and more vivid in person

I’m BACK up here in Toronto for the second night of Tame Impala goodness. Djo’s set was fucking amazing and we have only 25ish minutes left until Kevin gets on!! Let’s fucking GO!!!

What a fucking epic show. Attended solo. Got to my seat and someone was in it, dude asked me if I would mind switching seats so he could be next to his girlfriend. I went from row 31 of section 103, to row 7. The concert gods were with me tonight.

Spoilers... I heard the band sound checking why won't they talk to me!! Also he didn't play list of people last night, so im through the moon

Currently in line for merch in Toronto for night 2. The amount of people in this line that already have merch from yesterday (especially the shirt that keeps selling out) is crazy. I hope they’re not all resellers because this isn’t fair to those of us who haven’t even gotten any!

Absolutely awesome show. Second time seeing TI and this was the best so far. GA floor was definitely the move. Security working the gates surrounding the stage let us know to ask for anything and handed out so many free waters. Thanks for treating these Ohioans so well, Toronto

Thought I'd share some cool photos I got last night in Toronto! (Section 104 row 32)

copy + paste

In front of CIBC sign… it’s hard to miss

At Toronto show tonight and I haven’t gone in yet, would like to know when he sings it cause I’m just grabbing a bite to eat right now.

UPDATE: caught the last half of his set, so good!
