    What a crazy clusterfuck again today, huh?

    Can I just say something positive that comes out of this craziness? Well, positive for me/us?

    I have a feeling my 10c tix for the PJ 2012 tour are gonna be even better than before. Lots of peeps seem pretty pissed and threatening to cancel their membership. I may just get up nice and close without having to win the lottery!

    But man, I really do feel bad for all the people who have been dealing w/ the AV mess. We've gotten pretty used to the fiasco of purchasing 10c tix. But this is just insane. Not to mention, being told a new server was in place helped instill some hope.

    PJDW ticket sales = EPIC FAIL

    Hopefully some good comes out of all this:
    People who want to go to AV will get tickets
    and a nice new Cloud Server will be implemented prior to the next presale.

    Yeah, I was thinking that too. My 10c number is not bad either, as proven with our Hartford seats. There also appears to be an influx of new 10c members recently and if the new people get 10c tickets for Great Woods 12, that means one less older member gets shut out. It still puts a premium on actually lucking out and securing 10c tickets anyway, but to your point, we'll all be a few rows closer come GW12.

    Yes he does. I was listening to it this morning.

    I know what you mean. My number isn't the best; 444***. For my number last year in Hartford, they were good seats. Section 117, row C, seats 3 and 4. I remember Tim saying something after the EV ticket sale that the demand for tickets is greater than the number of tickets they had. I was thinking PJDW is something like 100,000:1,000. It's probably more than that.

    Honestly, does Boston need to hear "Release" on like every tour? It'd be nice if they played it in Hartford. Boston has gotten it enough times.

    So I have been down in the dumps all day about not being able to get tickets for Alpine Valley. Have a place to stay and everything... but yesterday, couldn't get the site to load, today couldn't log in. Boo Boo also was trying as we had a plan to score a pair and share, like we are for the EV Providence and Boston shows. He got as far as having tix in the cart, but then the cart expired despite frantic refreshing.

    It's not looking good for the trip to Wisconsin. Our backup plan was Montreal, but the show is the day before I'm supposed to be in Bar Harbor, Maine, with my trailer and my dogs, for a tournament.

    I guess PJ2011 isn't happening for me.

    But then I caught up on the posts on this thread, and thought, I am so lucky to be seeing EV three times, and especially to be able to go to the CT show with this merry gang _ we are going to have such a blast at the pre (and post) parties. Oh, and I guess at the show as well... ;)

    Thanks for cheering me up!

    I'm good. I'll wait for the next Hartford show to get "Release". Right now I can only afford one show a tour.

    I really believe we should all have one big table at the pre-party. I think this would be the table (sorry if I forget someone):

    Should there be one giant check or separate checks? Everyone would obviously chip in on the tip.

    Have we heard from the legendary PillowPants yet?

    And Mr. Steve Dunne is running the pre-party festivities.

    Haven't heard from PillowPants in a while. I'm sure he'll join in on the fun.

    So tables don't pay for the check? I wasn't there last and have never been a part of one of these before. How do these work?

    Well, for the Hartford pre-party last year Fenway and I just showed up and started drinking, talking, meeting new folks and having a good time. Most people were just standing around (obviously some were sitting at tables) but if I remember correctly the tables at the Black Bear are fairly small and don't sit more than 4 or 6. I would guess if you are at a table you would get a check for the table unless you ask to split it up.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.
