    I was there. Excellent show and excellent venue. Picked up the 10club tix early and my buddy Uncle Josh and I boozed for a while until showtime.

    Please come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That video of porch was amazing!
    Credit to the filmerr for staying on Mikey during his solo.
    I was over on stones side that night I (because of the sound mix) I couldn't hear a note mike played ..
    It was the only flaw in an otherwise perfect night..
    That video showed me what I was missing..
    And stone and mike sitting down on the stage at the end to keep playing their solos??
    Wow!!

    Yeah, the end of Porch with them on the floor was amazing to watch. I was also on Stone's side, in section 117, and at times, had a tough time hearing Mike but heard him perfectly during Porch.

    PJ posted this video of a tribute for Jennifer Jaff from the Hartford 2010 show when they did "The Fixer" for her.

    Nice to see there's a pro-shot song from this show.

    That's too bad. Being a grown-ass man trying to sneak beers into the hotel was super fun.

    Co-founder of cross country concerts, I think he was out of the business by the time PJ came around.

    Ya good call on this, they have never done 2 in Hartford... I think their first couple of experiences in Hartford didnt go so well 96 and 98 at the ampitheatre... there were security issues at both shows... but 06,08,10 have been 3 great shows with no issues! I think the sound is so much better at the arena in hartford then Comcast ampitheatre.
