First of all I wanted to apologize for not being at the preparties :oops: I wanted to meet so much people but is not my fault that Seattle is the most awesome place on earth, my wife and I love every single square inch of Seattle, I feel like Seattle is my Mecca, the people is extremely nice and polite, the architecture is to die for, there's a lot of green... There's too many good things to say about Seattle, my wife and I would loooveee to leave the sun and the warm weather of Miami for this cold and cloudy place :D

Now the review:
Ed was great both nights, I felt like both nights were the equivalent of the MSG shows back in 2010, night one was great on it's own merits but night 2 was out of this world... With only one flaw, no arc fir the last show :(

In short both shows kicked ass, that is all.

See you around here and in a little bit more than a month at PJ20

    One day I envision you writing reviews for Rolling Stone. Make sure you write a review for every show you go to, you will treasure them. If I could go back 200 shows and write a review for each concert I have seen I would be sooo glad I did it. They start to blend together after a few years.

    It was nothing, I like to relay but this time was a little painful because benaroya has the worst reception ever and I have to send 3-4 times each message :(

    sounds like two incredible shows. I was at MSG I & 2 in 2010 and know exactly what you mean. Night 1 I was 11th. row on the floor - night 2 was up in the 300 section on the side. Seats did not matter - Night 1 was great, night 2 was magic.

    How I choose to feel is how I am
