    Well guys, looks like the cats out of the bag. Boston show is confirmed according to the Wang Theatre's site for June 16th. Looks like if Ed does in fact hit CT, it will be close to this date. I was on the fence for Neil Young tickets next month but glad I didn't spring for them. Much rather see Eddie.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.

    I'm betting probably pretty accurate although I don't know for sure. That CT date falls right in line with the Boston date here (http://grungereport.net/?p=3532) so I'm thinking it is for real.

    I've been discussing with the wife all morning if we should do both or just one...
    are there hotels in hartford close by to this theater? as in walking distance and a safe walk?? we may just want to hang out after and not rush home..

    We stayed after the Hartford show last year and it was one of the best decisions we ever made. Hotel was packed with drunk and happy PJ fans.

    Its right in downtown hartford near all the State offices. And, because of that - being right across the street from a State office...FREE PARKING!!! there should be tons of hotels around in close proximity and im sure it wouldnt be hard to get a cab to a hotel or hitch a ride w/ a fellow PJammer leaving the venue.

    Ed's ticket prices are too steep for me to consider doing more than one show. Plus, he doesnt really change his set list too much, so hopefully I dont miss anything great in Boston. If the Boston show were on a weekend, I may be swayed....but going to Boston requires me to stay over. Too far of a drive home after a night of partying.

    Yes to the free parking. They have a big municipal lot across the street-tailgate heaven.
    And the bushnell is beautiful with top notch sound.

    Hotels-nothing is "far" in downtown hartford and if you are walking groups, you will be fine. Id guess there will be a decent parade of folks heading to the bars and the hotels after the show.

    Also. The Bushnell has quality Bose speakers - IN THE BATHROOMS!!! So you wont miss a single beat if you have to hit the pissa. :lol::D
