Reasons to tour the South, including Texas, (specifically Dallas):
The current population in Texas is approximately 25 million with 6.3 million folks in the DFW area.
Dallas is naturally a perfect tour stop in between other southern cities, as historically Dallas was actually founded as a trading stop along the trading routes from (north-south) Houston to Chicago and (east-west) Denver to Atlanta. For years and years and years, cattle drives, locomotive trains, and ferries traveled through Dallas as a stop along the main trade routes. (Tour buses stop here regularly, too!)
So even today Dallas has the whole trade stop feel. We've got everything anyone could possibly need: great hotels, museums, restaurants, friendly southern people. We've got Shiner beer! We've got TexMex! (C'mon, that's the best food on earth.) And most importantly, so many Pearl Jam fans have made this little trading post their home.
And the economy is good here! Especially in comparison to other parts of the United States. (http://www.bls.gov/news.release/laus.nr0.htm) So it can be concluded that the Pearl Jam fans here have some extra spendy money!
And, y'all, most importantly, the awesome Pearl Jam fans here haven't seen a proper Pearl Jam show since 2003. We miss you!
We'd love to have you!

Edit: Oh! I forgot to mention! We have a great basketball team!

"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
All I have to say is that if you're stopping in Dallas, you should come visit the biggest city in the state of Texas.....HOUSTON!
Sure, sure. Stop in H-eeeewwwwwwwwww-ston as well.

Hopefully.
If I'm going to break my 5 year streak this year, I'd at least like to start a new one next year...
Sending in my postcard for the week today... (forgot to send one earlier the week :fp: )
