Just heard about this:

It's quite close to my office, I will definitely be checking it out after work

Pinball!

I only played two tables - Metallica and X-Men, both were pretty awesome. Also saw TRON Legacy, Avatar, The Simpsons, and a few others.

I was a bit disappointed there weren't more Tommy tables ...

That's cool to hear about a pinball show in Canada. So, about how many pins were set up? Yeah, that Tommy pin is a classic in my book.

They said there were 100 tables, and they did indeed set a new Guiness World Record!

Metallica pinballs promoting a production of (The Who's) Tommy...interesting, at least.

It looks like mostly Stern pinballs in the pics.

Metallica is the latest Stern release, so they're probably doing this as a promo. As for Tommy, it's probably tough to find more than a couple of them.

Over here in the Seattle area, next month there's the Northwest Pinball and Gameroom show (http://nwpinballshow.com/) on June 7-9 in Tacoma. They're expecting 350 pins and arcade games this year.
