Yup, that's right, with less than 10M to showtime, they've sold exactly 1 ticket.
I had that happen once pre-covid. I was the only person in the theatre for an Al Gore climate documentary.

Just downloaded my QR code and successfully scanned it using the verification app! Thanks for the tip.UPDATE: The QR code receipts will instead be released over three days, starting today, split by birth month. Jan-Apr are available today, May-Aug starting Saturday, and Sep-Dec starting Sunday. This is to prevent taxing the servers with too many simultaneous downloads. The consumer side of the app will launch next week after that roll out.
A former colleague of mine called today out of the blue, asking me if I knew of any job leads. I asked her what happened, has she lost her job? She replied she’s received a notice of termination effective Oct 31st unless she’s vaccinated. I then asked incredulously, why aren’t you vaccinated? ... that her parents ...
I'm not sure how common this really is, but twice now I've had someone mention to me that they strongly suspect that some are being pressured by their anti-vaxxer ("vaccine hesitant"?, "disease enthusiast"? -- not sure what the most appropriate term would be anymore) husbands or fathers to not get vaccinated.Some people just lack common sense, and there's really no helping them. She deserves to lose her job if she's that stubborn about being stupid.
If you are going to something, particularly a big event, make sure you get there much earlier than you would have previously. It was taking more than half an hour for many to get into the Canada/Panama soccer match on Wednesday night, although it probably didn't help that it was a late decision just a few days ahead of time to allow full capacity instead of half, and also that an MLSE-operated venue may have had trouble finding enough staff with the Leafs/Montreal hockey game at ScotiaBank Arena on the same night.Yes. People were checked at the door.
The irony of "free thinkers" forcing others to listen to them should just proves how lacking in self-awareness the anti- crowd is.I'm not sure how common this really is, but twice now I've had someone mention to me that they strongly suspect that some are being pressured by their anti-vaxxer ("vaccine hesitant"?, "disease enthusiast"? -- not sure what the most appropriate term would be anymore) husbands or fathers to not get vaccinated.
Personally, still going to avoid big indoor venues for a while. When we hit daily single-digit case increases, maybe.If you are going to something, particularly a big event, make sure you get there much earlier than you would have previously.

It's more a logistical thing, especially with custom stages, lighting, audio, etc. It's not unheard of for a large band to have a hundred or more transport trucks to haul all that equipment. For a tour where you want to cram in as many dates in as short a time as possible (often foreign bands), that equipment will sometimes be separated into two or more different crews, who cover staggered tour dates so that equipment arrives and can be set up on time. Once everything's set up, they still need to be inspected both structurally and electrically, tested, etc. On top of it all, the hundreds of people involved all need to have the proper cross-border work permits, and be available for the time needed (roadies often work with different bands).It seems the announced return to full capacity along with the U.S. re-opening land crossings might have led to the entertainment venues now being able to schedule more shows. But apparently it might take some time for many of the bigger music acts, as these have to be scheduled many months in advance and they've been sticking to the U.S. so far because of all the uncertainty. It might be a little easier for comedians (Ricky Gervais, Bill Burr, Brent Butt, etc.) to confirm new shows.
Never use during the first few hours or days, if possible. The traffic will be terrible.Looks like the system is having issues

I expect that if you're just showing the receipt PDF file with QR code on it, I don't see why not?Can we have two or more people's vaccine certificates/passports on one smartphone?
