Although 500,000 people were expected at the Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto concert on 30 Jul, organisers now say the audience will likely be closer to 430,000 – though that's still a fair sized audience.
The show, which will include performances the Rolling Stones, Rush, Justin Timberlake and CMU favourites AC/DC amongst others, will be split into an afternoon and evening portion. Organisers say that artist sets will be seamless, and use a rotating stage to allow the next band to set up. Jim Belushi and Dan Aykroyd will host.
The running order so far: Sam Roberts, Kathleen Edwards, La Chicane, Tea Party, the Flaming Lips, Sass Jordan with Jeff Healey, the Isley Brothers, Blue Rodeo, Justin Timberlake, the Guess Who, Rush, AC/DC and finally the Stones.
