Hey there blogosphere! My name is Andrea and I’m one of the new bloggers behind ShowTimeTickets.com Ticket Matter blog.
Ever since I was little I’ve loved seeing shows on stage and I have a particular fondness for musicals. My favourite shows that have been to Vancouver so far are Spamalot and Singing in the Rain.
Each year you’ll also find me at Pacific Coliseum when Disney On Ice comes to town.
I’m looking forward to bringing you the scoop about the great shows and sporting events coming to Vancouver! Right now I’m eagerly awaiting Wicked, which will be playing all next month at the Queen Elizabeth Theater.
So what shows are you most looking forward to seeing?

Highlights of the Torch Relay, Linden and Nash
Last week, ShowTimeTickets.com caught up with Trevor Linden and Steve Nash on the road for the Olympic torch relay.
As we exited the sky-train at 49th Street, crowds of people began to emerge. Every sidewalk from 49th to Main and over to Oak Street was packed with crowds five people deep. By the time we reached what would be the starting place for Linden, it was a sea of red flags and shirts. Adults, children, and families waited excitedly, hoping to catch a glimpse of the torch. It was nice to see such large numbers turn out in support.
When Trevor Linden began his relay, the crowd went wild. Steve Nash caused a similar response. Children and adults alike screamed out in joy. The two were separated by about twelve blocks. Trying to reach both relays was challenging, but well worth it. I think I’m one in many who will always remember the rush of running along side two of Canada’s greatest athletes.
It’s not too late to for you to be a part of the Winter Games. For 2010 Winter Olympic tickets, visit ShowTimeTickets.com.
