    I'm thinking we should have a big system that will wake Waterbury up for when he plays in my backyard/driveway. Hook up the iPod to the system for before and after Ed and it would be one long party. I'm thinking a weekend party? Friday - Sunday? Friday would be a meet and greet and sit around and listen to music. Saturday would be the big day, the all day event; 10 AM get the festivities started with music from the iPod blasting on the system. We play some games like the bean bag game. Get all the food and drinks organized. Eddie will go on around 4 or 5, play for a couple of hours and then we party it up with Eddie. While Eddie is performing, mfc will be giving us a Southern style BBQ that'll rock our taste buds and he'll still be enjoying the show. The partying would probably end around midnight. Then Sunday would be the public show at the Palace Theater around normal performance time. We invade downtown Waterbury.

    How does that sound to all of you?

    Are you going to the Big E this year? I might be. But I do like the camping grounds, Big E idea. One wild, crazy, and unique way of partying it up with Eddie Vedder.

    Newch---I like the sound of that! As long as we put the bbq pit close to the stage! 8-) We have a lot of family on the East Coast---some that I haven't seen in a long time. We're moving (it's looking like Seattle) either next summer or the summer after that (depends on my wife's internship) & have decided that we need to make an east coast trip before we move to the West Coast. When I told her about this thread, she was stoked. Her 1st PJ show was at ACL last year & she loved it. She absolutely loves ITW and keeps saying that we need to hit an EV solo show. So, it's safe to say that we will be there! Sorry for the long-winded response....just got a bit excited is all! It'll be great to meet all of you & enjoy some awesome music. Count me & mrs. mfc2006 IN!
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Oh thank you. I miss the good ol' days of being five and not knowing any other music besides The Beatles. Being five, such a magical time in the 90s. I truly miss the 90s. Ain't nothing like it!

    Loved that video. I have the bootleg of the two shows. They're not the greatest sounding but it's worth having.

  • its always nice to hear a different take on a classic song...even if it doesnt stick or isnt the greatest, or better than the original...its nice to know the creative juices are still flowin'

    that being said...Im glad they went back to the original way of playing Garden. Didnt really like how the cut out the intro in '06 to try and save time...

    Thanks! I took that with my phone one morning when I woke up, rolled over, and all three of them were lined up like that staring at me. I posted it on the Doggie thread a while back with the caption, "We took a vote, it's time for you to get up."

    I think Sailor (the yellow Lab) would like to come to the show. He's very well behaved. And I'm pretty sure Ed's a dog lover.

  • I have a crazy Boston Terrier. He loves people...dogs are on a case by case basis....
    but your like the dog whisperer so, im sure you could whip him into shape real quick...
    my dogs problem is that he looks small, but he's really big and strong...some day i'll get a pic of him up here
    anywho...for sure if we do a weekend EVCT show, then we'll have to make sure a kennel is on site for all the doggies.

    this is really formulating to be a wonderful plan :D
