    Thanks Mike, for making it rain on me at PJ20!

    i want those!!!!!!!!!!!
    Not enough money, backpacks or white vinyl in the world to make me give those up. They're from night 1, so I'd like to think I was the first to truly "collect all 4" as Mike put it on his Tumblr feed before the tour. Soon to be framed with my EV pick, Hampton glow in the dark print and ticket stub. :D Will post pics when it's done.
    Mesa I - 11/93 * Toledo - 9/96 * Chicago - 6/98 * St Louis - 7/98 * Indy - 8/98 * St Louis & San Diego - 10/00 * Mt View II - 10/01 * Irvine I & II, San Diego - 6/03 * Chicago I - 5/06 * San Diego & SF III - 7/06 * Lolla - 8/07 * EV Chicago - 8/08 * Chicago I & II - 8/09 * Kansas City & Indy - 5/10 * PJ20 X2 - 9/11 * Atlanta 9/12 * Wrigley Field 7/13 * Moline & Milwaukee 10/14 * Wrigley Field I & II 8/16 * Wrigley Field I & II 8/18 * Ohana Encore I & II 10/21 * EV & The Earthlings Chicago II 2/22
    Won the lottery PJ20 Night 1 - Front Row in front of Jeff - Forever grateful to Ten Club

    I mentioned this in a post I made after the Vancouver show (might be in the official fanviews thread ... can't remember).

    Mike doesn't play solos, he delivers sermons. TESTIFY! 8-)

    What a great thread ~ I love listening to Mike play! Each performance is incredible. 'Nothing As It Seems' ~ I find especially mesmerizing.
    My last message to you ~

    You're right. You are a monster! You are sick! Get help!

    At least, I am not a fuck-up! A lying fuck-up!

    so true - everything about the guy is so special

    he played right in front of us for Ledbetter in Toronto and all I could think was "thank you, amazing, I can't f*cking believe this is happening, I love this moment, I will never forget this"

    incredible

    And he is modest too. When I had the honor of meeting him last year and said thank you to him, his response was "it wasn't me".
    Still can't believe I met Mike Mccready at the Guggenheim and got a pic with him!!!!!

    Wow.

    Spiritual. Otherwordly. Those are the moments I live for- whether it be music or anything else. That moment of just total seemlessness... Where everything clicks all at once and you can feel the energy running through from your toes to your fingertips.


    Wow.
