Rolling Stones Enlisted To Help Toronto
With the World Health Organization lifting all travel advisories on Toronto, the city, province and country are all chipping in to help. The Rolling Stones are being called in to help bring back Toronto’s tourism industry.
The Stones, who have rehearsed for their last 3 tours in Toronto, have agreed in principle to headline a free show that would interrupt their European tour, the band’s promoter Michael Cohl told the Globe and Mail.
It is estimated that $11 million would be needed to host such an event, which is being planned for July 29 or 30 on the grounds of the Downsview Air Base.
Last year, the Pope visited Toronto, and held a large mass at the same site. The Idomo furniture store was closed down afterwards when a rain coat dumped in a portable toilet caused the sewers to back up into the store.
