to newbies and old freaks (like me) alike..

If you have never bagged a spot in front of Mike McCready until this 2010 tour...
well then button up your chinstrap...!

You will be pulled into The Master's magic!

You cannot resist...

AND if he points you out well!... LOOK OOOOOOOOOOOOUT!
:!:

can I get an "Amen"'?

    AMEN!!!!! I had the sheer pleasure of winning the lottery for Night 2 in Philly right in front of Mike... I went with a guy who was at his first show... He could not believe what he was seeing and is now hooked... Got NAIS, greatest moment ever in my concert history and I got a loooong history....

    Love to be pointed out by mike! But playing who is going to blink first with Eddie is surreal.

    Happy to say I've experienced both.

    Being in front of Mike is definitely the most fun place to be at a PJ gig.

    I did three shows in Australia (Perth, Melb and Sydney) in the first couple of rows infront of Jeff Mike and had a great time. For my stepson to have his first concert experience against the rail infront of Mike at Perth (and being spoken to by Eddie) is something he will never forget. 8-)

    Won the lottery for Night 3 in Philly. Gave Mike my shirt and he gave me one of his. Mike also gave my buddy and I autographed picks.

    It was awesome...he is the man. You can tell he used to be the crazed fan and he enjoys melting people's faces off with his solos.

    I do agree with that, would be nice to win the lottery on a NA show though. I was in front of Mike in Manchester last year. He stared at me during second verse of Save You, looking if I knew the lyrics. I flubbed them Eddie-style.

    a picture just flashed through my mind:
    pj on stage with nobody standing on stone's side. the floor is completely empty on one half of the venue. The whole audience is on mike’s side.
