^mmh i understand you...i mean my boyfriend went through the same thing when he moved three years ago for Paris. At the beginning he didn't know anybody and went to the gigs alone. And he was pretty sad about that because when he was in Bordeaux he had a lot of friends with whom he could go to concerts (i have to add that there are not soo much metalheads in Bordeaux so you see always the same faces and you became very quickly familiar with people). He has even bought me the ticket train to Paris + tickets for COB concert last year because he didn't want to go to the COB concert alone
Anyway this forum is a good way to meet people and i'm sure that they are some canadians on this forum who will be also at the next COB in Toronto and i'm sure they will be more than happy to go with a cute girl as you
i hope my english is understandable
