    Okay, I know I really have no business posting in this thread since Ive lived my entire life in Mass. (save for 4 years in Rhode Island in college), but I figured this might be the best place to get an answer on this. BTW I know tons of kids from CT and they are all fantastic people. Anyhoo...I was listening yesterday while the snow was falling outside my window to one of my favorite boots, Hartford 2008. Great show. Great memories. My question is this: During In Hiding, Ed says, "Brian, Brian, how come you never call me?" Who is Brian? Is it the Ohio Pearl Jam fan gone missing? Someone from the board? I used the search function with no success on this matter.
    *It was during Not for You
    ....and I use that section of the song as my ring tone :)
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    and yes we call them grinders!

    Franklin Giant grinders in Hartford are the best in the state.

    You my friend, have to take a drive to Waterbury some day and try Cavallo's grinders. Pretty good stuff there.

    The Agora...saw Stevie Ray Vaughn there in the summer of '85...was smooshed up against the stage, incredible...wish I had a boot from that! After the show, my car was blocked in by people parking 3 deep in the dirt parking lot, so a bunch of guys helped my friends and I "move" the car that had me pinned in!

    All these food suggestions will serve me well when I visit CT in a few weeks. If you guys are ever in Jersey, I'll hook you up with some prime pizza joints.

    Yeah, it was crazy, that was the first time I saw dudes just letting it go right there on the floor...you couldn't move down front at all, so getting to the restroom was impossible ! Also saw Twisted Sister there 3 or 4 times. Those were some seriously sick crowds!
