The local New Orleans paper posted the story, and then quickly pulled it....however google captured the headline:

    That's quite a big window. If the show is closer to the end of April and on a weekend I may be there :mrgreen:

  • for those not familar with Jazz Fest....as of the past 10 or so years, there have been many rock bands play.

    Last year DMB, Neil Young, and Bon Jovi got 2 hours each. IIRC, Widespread got 2.5 in 2007....so the precedent for a decent (although maybe not standard PJ) length show is there.

    I wouldnt worry about it. If PJ does play Coachella, ask these people again in 5 or so months what they thought. Considering the reviews they have recieved and the amount of people they have won over at Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, I have no doubt in this band's ability to win people over with their live show.

    I know right, That's what i'm sayin'. And you know all the bashing is from people who have not seen them live because even casuals fans who have are like, Dude i'm not even that big of a fan but their f*cking good live.
