    Hey all,

    I have tickets for Friday. Can someone please tell me what the poster situation was last night? My experience has been that different venues deal with posters differently. Unfortunately, I got shut out of Ten Club tix, so I wasn't able to take advantage of the early poster purchase.

    I am trying to channel my serious jealousy over shows 1 and 2 into serious anticipation for show 3 . . . !

    Many thanks,
    Eric

    There were plenty available when I walked by the booths at 8:30, and other people have said they were still available after the show.

    ya. They usually have more of the Tom Tomorrow posters anyway. So I wouldn't worry.

    I am glad I decided to get a single for night 1!! Even if I had to drive down solo, I was among 18,000 friends. Great show last night, loved the varied set list. I hope I didn't bother the nice couple that was beside me, but that itch needs scratched during a PJ show and I have a hard time standing still. Being in section 315 was great, even though it was side stage, i got to see everything going on and the sound was awesome. Heck wouldn't mind it if my fan club tickets were there.

    Ed and the boys were definitely on fire last night. I hope they take their vitamins and are ready to rock the Spectrum just as hard tonight. Loved the Bruce story, nice to see some friendly competition going on. The video montage of the Spectrum set the tone for the night, seeing Dr J dunking in the Spectrum was awesome.

    As far as the crowd, they were up when they needed to be and chilling during the slower songs. I saw no problem with that. Although I was kind of bummed everyone around me in my section decided to sit during the beginning part of the 1st encore, but I compromised and sat on my seat as it was folded up.

    Looking forward to the next three nights of PJ!

    Almost forgot.... It was nice that there weren't sports chants all night. I think I heard the start of one but it faded out quickly.

    Hey Jeff - right down the road here in York, PA! Thank you for the awesome review of your experience at S#1! So jealous that you're hitting all 4! I won't be there until Saturday, but I'm sure it will be the show of all shows! :)

    I have a feeling you are correct! Good to see more PJ fans in the South Central Pa area. Now I just need to get through work and head back down, alot of driving but worth it.

    I am commuting for each of the shows this week from the Reading area.

    Work???...who can CONCENTRATE on work!?!? I'm an unfocused, useless mess!

    Obviously I am not working, but I am here just playing the role. Just hope our IT dept doesn't audit my pc or I'm screwed!!

    Philly fans why are there so many people saying these shows are not even close to being sold out and thats without even selling the tickets behind the stage? All this talk about the greatest 4-night stand ever and not one show is sold-out? Is this true? If it is that is disgraceful and you should never put yourselves in the same category as Chicago, NY, Seattle or Boston when it comes to selling tickets.

    That's amazing they are going to play probably 90% of their catalogue in Philly, similar to Mansfield, MA. I was hoping they'd do that for the 4 LA shows, but sadly they didn't. You guys are lucky!!

    They are sold out but ticket have been released on comcasttix. That's what they do with any concert by any band. Sell all but maybe thousand up front and release the rest as the concert nears.
