Rock the Bells 2009?

[tomio]

Is there anyone that has any info regarding there being a Rock the Bells 2009 in Toronto? I have yet to find any info and any help would be appreciated.

Well last year,
Rock the Bells took place at "The Flats at Arrow Hall" in Mississauga (this was roughly a day after the Warped Tour took place and iirc, there was a stage that was set up in preparation for that event). The event was initially plan to take place at the Molson Amphitheatre, but it was moved to Arrow Hall for some unknown reasons.

This is what i found from the news section of the MuchMusic website:

"The Rock The Bells hip-hop festival is returning to Canada this summer. The line-up announced includes Common, Nas, The Roots, Big Boi, Canadian act K'Naan and a long list of others. Dates have yet to be announced but the festival will stop in Toronto and Vancouver."

As for the venue, I highly doubt it. hope this helps.

update:

This year's Rock the Bells festival will take place at the Molson Amphitheatre on Sunday, July 5th, 2009. Tickets will be on sale this Saturday, May 2nd, 2009 at 12:00pm. Eastern Time. More information can be founded here:

It might be a welcoming change from Arrow Hall last year, but having an event like this at the Molson Amp is a good one.
