    You don't actually have to put forth the effort to read and sign a petition, once you click 'sign the petition' it just says 'you have signed a petition' and gives you a point! (Kinda defeats the purpose a bit?)

    I dig that now both my fav frontmen are serving alcohol to the crowd. ;)

    Seeing them at Reading this Sunday, I cannot wait! It's 20 years after Nirvana's legendary gig there, so everyone's hoping for something special...and Krist tweeted that he was flying somewhere yesterday...so who knows... :mrgreen:

    Not sure. They did tour a lot last year when it came out. It'd be nice to get another tour later in the year or next year, but it seems like Dave is busy with "Sound City."

    I don't know much about the band but I did like the set version they played sort of unpluggled at the Democratic National Convention. I thought most rock bands stayed away from politics. Give it a watch....

    bought

    same here. checked my confirmation email and it says under status: Backordered. Wonder if that means they are just waiting to pack them all up to ship or are they waiting to get them from the distributor?

    :shock: Yikes. So it took 2 months to get it or you got it sooner and they never changed the status? Sorry for the confusion.
