    code, schmode. it's a pj show, a pj preparty. gotta be pj. i do like the idea of playing live shows, though.

    "It sounds better the first time you hear it that day." I don't want the third time I hear "Alive" to be at the show. I'll wear ear plugs.
    heh. it'll probably be too loud to hear the music anyway!

    1 day closer to the show bump. I like the thought of Hard To Imagine being played, but how about an Oceans opener for the land of 10,000 lakes?

    Just some comments on the Pre-Party...

    1. Welcome adoffin! Glad to see you've had experience with fund-raising events and have got the ball rolling. I think it's great that we can all join forces and make this PJ preparty even more kick ass together!

    2. Party Planning Committee - McGovern's sounds like the favorite venue, and I'd agree with Diddy that we should "scope things out", have some beers, and start talking logistics with each other. I'd be game Friday or Saturday, or we can look at later. We've got time on our side!

    3. Prizes - We could start a list of prizes amongst ourselves (not to be posted on the forum yet!). I personally have vinyl and posters to donate, and I'd agree with Vant that good pre parties have quantity, but also quality of prizes.

    I'm thinking out loud, but since we have time, rather than just collect items people are willing to donate, what if we organized a raffle on the forum (open to all) to generate funds to purchase something highly sought-after, like even a Benny? It would take work up front, but imagine the draw that would have for people to the event, which would raise even more for a good cause in the end.

    All in all, I think we're ahead of the game, and I'm so very excited to be a part of this!

    cross posting in case people are curious but not following the mystery box thread...

    fatty mcgee here got his xxl mystery box and here it is:

    image

    image

    image


    The Who/PJ HOB 2002 Hat
    Red Canada 2011 Tour T-shirt (dates on back)
    Burnt Orange Old West Saloon T-shirt
    Melbourne N1 2006 Poster
    Brisbane 2009 Poster
    White Fixer/Supersonic 7" (still with Target price sticker!- must have had these returned)
    Nothing As It Seems 1-track promo CD
    Nagoya Japan 2003 Bootleg
    Tres Mts CD
    Brad CD
    Benaroya-era(?) 10c renewal postcard
    Backspacer Bouncy Ball
    Backspacer Space Drummer Sticker (or tattoo?)
    Johnny Guitar Sticker
    PJ Europe 2012 Flag Sticker
    PJ Europe 2012 Handshake Sticker
    Lightning Bolt Window Sticker
    My Father's Son promo card (my favorite track on LB, so that's cool)
    PJ Superman Logo Sticker
    PJ Monkeywrench Sticker
    PJ Vulture Sticker
    PJ Calgary 2013 Sticker
    PJ20 Promo Sticker
    Brad Best Friends? Sticker
    PJ Wrigley Field Sticker
    PJ Wrigley Field Patch
    Three Fish Sticker

    Hadn't seen anyone with a Japan 2003 bootleg yet so that was the biggest surprise out of the box. The posters don't do much for me so I expect I'll donate those to an upcoming preparty. I'll wear the tees, so that's good. Though everyone is getting them, I'm actually excited to have the Tres Mts and Brad CDs- I probably wouldn't have picked those up otherwise. I'll find a use for the stickers. I was hoping the vinyl would be something I didn't have, so that was probably the most disappointing "get" of the box- seeing the Angel/Ramblings promos and some of the other singles got my hopes up.

    I will have paper, pens, etc so that we can exchange numbers/emails/etc so that this forum doesn't get bogged down with miscellaneous crap. I will also have the Wishlist "guidelines" that I was sent (even though I was told they were re-vamping it). Most of it we know already or have already discussed. I will fill you guys in on what I have already been told (not a whole lot) and what we will need to do ahead of time...and I am sure you guys will have plenty of info for me too. It'll be awesome to be able to put a face to a name. See you guys tomorrow!
