    On January 18, 1978, the roof at the Civic Center collapsed because of the weight of the snow on the roof.

    On May 15, 2010, the roof at the Civic Center collapsed because Pearl Jam rocked the shit out of the Civic Center.

    Haven't seen iron man two yet. I might actually take a Yankee game. Not sure though.

    Hey - stupid questions.

    1. We are staying at the Hampton Inn on Pitkin St in East Hartford - it's right across the river, near 84. Is it a reasonable walking distance from the XL? Also, I found parts of Hartford, just outside of Downtown, to be pretty sketchy (based on my memories of some time previously spent there for OSHA training back in '04) - is this area around the hotel a not so great neighborhood?

    2. We are planning on getting in to town just after noon tomorrow, so we'll have some time to kill. What is there to do nearby? I don't have much time to be browsing Hartford travel guides at the moment...

    Thanks! This show will be amazing - it has to be, it's my only show on this tour, I got shut out of 10c tickets, then my first shot at Ticketbastard tickets (got the third row back in the lower bowl, maybe 3 sections down from the stage? They were great, for non-10c) got screwed up while ordering - I logged back in, and after 52 minutes "in line" (waited less than 30 seconds my first time through), got section 219! Bleh! At least I'm in the building. So my point is - PJ, DON'T SCREW THIS UP! :-) Well, it's gotta be better than Hartford '06! :-)

    See ya all there...
