    Milford here...definitely going to Ziggy's on the 27th, it's very close to the highway (I-95), should be a great time! IMHO, the Pepe's in Fairfield isn't as good as New Haven, but again, that's just my opinion.


    I have only had New Haven, Mohegan and Yonkers locations....you know I'll be trying Fairfield when I'm there.

    What's the nicest/closest hotel to Ziggy's?

    See ya there lostdawg!

    Oh yeah, I'm definitely going to try to make it to Ziggy's, since I live in Fairfield anyway!

    Should be a fun time!

    o gawd no! :)
    seriously, the acoustics in gampel are horrendous!!! they stopped having shows in there awhile ago. worse than the carrier dome. echoes everywhere. faith no more played there back in the day, and it was no fun.

    PJ could fill 'The Rent' though. The tailgate for that would be awesome!
    I love to turn you on

    All I remember from that Faith No More show was plowing down the stairs to get to the floor and folding chairs being shoved out of the way. I was exhausted after that show. Didnt notice the acoustics:)

    I agree about Rentschler...that would be awesome
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    Yeah the Rent would be awesome. That's where they should play. I'd like to see the Civic Center or maybe the Palace Theater in Waterbury, although that might be too fancy for them. Maybe an Ed show at the Palace would be good.

    Shameless self promotion. Nice. Me likes.
    There should always be an element of shame to self-promotion. For instance, I took the time to write this meaningless preamble before posting the link below. See, shame is a good thing...

    Thanks very much for the kind words, buddy. Since I too wish you could join us sometime, the X-man's memorable quote from "Singles" wouldn't apply to any No Code show (don't let me down here, you know which line I'm talking about!).

    Great chatting with you at McFadden's after one of the Spectrum shows. It almost made me forget how much that soulless corporate joint sucks.

    Ziggy's reported PJ friendliness is what sold us on making the trip. Looking forward to meeting you on the 27th, JR.
