    I freaked out when he played that Bob Dylan song, I used to listen to that album none stop. You should check out the version Dylan did with Johnny Cash when Cash had that variety show.

    This was one of the best nights I have ever spent with PJ/Eddie. He was way beyond great tonight. My only annoyance you could call it, was this douche sitting next to me who was rollin on E, screaming for Society the whole night. Ahhh what a night

    Hail, Hail QQ!!! I was seat 8 sandwiched between a quiet, respectful twenty-something from NYC, and the Twenty-something “douche” from Philly. Well, as for the “douche,” he must have rubbed my leg four times, while screaming Society…..that must have been the E. Truth is he was harmless, he was no more annoying than the constant screaming of FootSteps and Betterman by others close by, after all it was a concert and sometimes people indulge too much. It was an awesome show, and even QQ seat 6 Society screamer couldn’t put a damper on it!!!!

    Despite wishing the crowd was a bit quieter, I really enjoyed the show. It did leave me feeling a little slighted as it was over in a flash...... I was excited to here State Trooper for the first time. This is such a gem off of Springsteen's Nebraska. A real treat for me. A few of us were yellin "BRUUUUUUUCE!!!". Those aren't boos you silly PJ fans!


    I thought the "new" song was a cover I didn't know. I love Ed droppin new shit at these shows. Makes it that much more special.

    The night needed at least one more song. It just felt short, but that was the only thing missing.

    Also, Philly crowd is a drunkin mess. I had a coked up couple in front of me in 10c seats. They were the worst fans ever. Tweaking all night, talking over great moments.......

    I didn't hear anyone yell out the Phillies score tonight.........Oh, right. They lost.
    90 shows and counting...some of my favs: Randall's Island night 2, Milwaukee '95 night 2, Hawaii '06, St Johns '05, PJ20!

    Went to both shows, personally thought Night 1 was better just my opinion. I'm more of a PJ fan didn't know how much I would get into Ed solo but it was good. He is a great performer by himself as well. Can't wait for the Spectrum shows?

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Baltimore. I have upper balcony for the show there, it would be an amazing experience and a great story to tell if I were so lucky!
    Philly 1 and 2 were fantastic. I agree that Philly 2 was much tighter, Ed should definitely stay off the painkillers.

    Get there about 15-20 min before Liam gets on to have a good chance...Also, I think they are partial to upgrading couples...I told my wife for weeks leading up to this one that we had to get there early and it happened for us last night...good luck!
