    Whoever said the only reason why they play Chicago is because of ED is an idiot! It's only one of the greatest and cleanest big cities in the world! And there isn't any band of any relevance that ever passes up Chicago. In fact for a lot of bands(the WHO, U2, RADIOHEAD) it's their favorite place to play in the world. I'm not sure what ticketmaster your on, but there are absolutely no tix left for Chicago 1, and there are singles left in the last rows for Chicago 2 which will be completely sold out come showtime. Lastly you do realize the UC is one of the biggest indoor facilities in the country holding over 22,000 for concerts. So to sell-out 2 nite's in this economy in a place that I'll admit is horrible for concerts is pretty damn imprerssive.

    Let's try to just really concentrate on this part ABOVE! Because nothing is going to change no matter how much or how loud the same few continue to bitch about whatever! And for the person taking "figure it out and stfu" it wasn't meant for just you it's meant for every person that can't handle the current PJ and the way they do business! And make no mistake it is a business and always has been, even for our beloved PJ! As for representing Chicago I grew up on Taylor Street, enough said...Now off again to being an elitist father taking his son to see Transformers for the 2nd time...VITO

    First of all - congratulations, you're a good dad. We get it.
    Second, the bitch train moves on. There's the bitchers, those who bitch at bitchers, and so on and so forth. There's a right way to go about doing that, and a wrong way. You are (obviously) of the type who bitches at bitches - and you're going about it all the wrong way. You lose your credibility when you start telling people to "stfu" and call them idiots. Truthfully, I'm not exactly sure what it is you're even trying to say!

    Read all the posts and then maybe some of you would understand why I chose too use the word elitist in 2 different responses. If thats too hard well it's because of some of the bitching about PJ becoming an elitist band???? No I never claimed to be a great Dad and lastly it's my sons favorite movie so actually your criticizing a 10 year old boy about his choice of entertainment. And for those who continue, which are few to think I am bitching about the bitches well maybe your right isn't it tiresome! Lastly just think if I posted all the time and bitched all the time, can you imagine? So enough of that and let's talk about CHICAGO!!! AND IF YOUR STILL NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT I'M SAYING IT'S IN REGARDS TOO SOMEONE FROM ANOTHER THREAD SAYING THE ONLY REASON WHY PJ PLAYS CHICAGO IS BECAUSE OF ED? So I STARTED THIS THREAD TO REASURE HIM THAT THE GREAT CITY OF CHICAGO IS WHY EVERY BAND PLAYS HERE. AND AFTER READING ALL THE BITCHING IS WHEN i ADDED THE PS PART. IF THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE I'M SORRY YOUR CLUELESS.

    Well, a couple of things. First of all, I can't read your posts to be honest. Most of what you've written is close to incomprehensible, due to the lack of effort in the grammar department. I'm sincerely sorry for saying that if it's the best you can do, however.
    Second, you only used the word 'elitist' twice - once saying (which I can't tell if this is supposed to be a joke) that you are an elitist dad, the other time saying that you, an elitist dad, are going to take your kid to Transformers. What does that even mean - an elitist dad? Elitist in what regard?
    Finally, anyone who even looks at this thread will probably notice that you are complaining about those who complain - it's quite obvious. And no, I don't think it's just a 'few' people.
    That's the last I'm going to post here, as I feel like I need to do what I can to ensure it gets buried - I encourage the rest of you to as well, there are more productive ways to spend your time!

    Wow benjs you really are not that smart if you can't piece together why I used the word elitist, and I encourage you to just stop posting regarding this thread since you still haven't comprehended one single aspect of the OP or the PS. As for my grammer as on all message boards if that's the best you got don't respond. Here I'll sum it up really easily for you. 1)PJ plays Chicago because it's a great city not because Ed grew up here as suggested in another thread. and 2)For all the bitches, whiners, and complainers I stand by my PS go away or find another band to follow. I tried to state these points nicely and explain them earlier, but I guess it's too much for individuals who have nothing better to do but bitch, moan , and complain...
