    It was a tale of 2 nights. Night 1 was amazing, great opener, great setlist, TOTD surprise (including their 3 best songs). Night 2 was a total disapointment. It was so freaking cold. The opener sucked, boring setlist, TOTD... AGAIN. If only both nights were like Night 1. Night 2 got off to a bad start with Wash... Overplayed, Overhyped.

    The opening lineup was as bad as it sounded when it was first announced. I still can't believe that was the actual lineup and not a joke. It seems the entire weekend was poorly planned. Would it have been so hard to get some decent opening bands, or maybe get Uncle Neil to show up on the second night? I've seen him play with PJ before, but not everyone has. Don't get me wrong, I am thankful for TOTD, but I didn't need a repeat performance on Sunday.

    As for the venue, it was terrible. I'll never go back there again. The sight lines are bad, and the projection screens are terrible. We didn't have too much trouble leaving, thanks to VIP parking. Although the hundreds of dumbasses walking in the middle of the exit road certainly slowed us down. The road was wide enough for 3 cars, yet people covered the entire road.

    You're an angry elf.
    I guess anyone who deviates from the herd of sheep is angry? Some of us form our own opinions.

    "Bad start with Wash" - amazing how each person is different. I mean for me, it was the greatest thing in the world.

    Glad you enjoyed it. I'm just sick of every time they play a "special" show, they open with Wash. I've been at every show in the US it has been played at since 2000. I just can't believe that many people haven't heard it yet. Sometimes, Long Road, Can't Keep, and especially Oceans are all more rare openers than Wash.

    Before Saturday, Wash had been played nine times in 11 years. A lot of people haven't heard it. Maybe you're just "unlucky." :roll:
    Just because it hasn’t been played often, doesn’t make it a good song. Oceans is a great song, and has only been played 68 times in 20 years. People want to hear Dirty Frank too, and I can tell you from experience that you're not missing anything.
