    Yes but between 1991 (maybe 1992) and 1998 I don't think there was a single one was there? We are just making up for lost time :) It's probably because we are the only region that bought Riot Act. We deserve to be rewarded for spending money on that thing. :lol:

    From all accounts, everyone hates when they play Camden, but ... let's be sure to count them as Philly shows when we want to throw up a meaningless competitive post. :roll:

    Well, if that is you argument then Boston is off the hook, seeing as Ortiz and Manny didn't come through the farm system.

    hartford would probably be easier to get in and out of than foxboro. either way it's a horrendous setup

    I've been to Camden about 50 times, pearl jam, radiohead, phish, so many shows. I love it. Locals can ferry, no hate here.

    And I was really just messing around, but yeah Mansfield isn't boston

    Alright, I'll buy the 'Philly-area' thing but to me it's not the same as playing Wachovia - it's in a different state for cripes sakes - for the sake of this post I'll comply but as a general statement I wish the band would start playing Wachovia again when they come to the Philly area like they did in '05.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    I could get to the Camden venue from my house (in Philly proper) in about ten minutes with a kayak.

    The only good thing that came out of Philly was the cheesesteak. As for Pearl Jam, I predict a tour stop in Boston proper BEFORE the Philly shows.
