    To quote Ed quoting Mike: "I fucking love the Midwest!"
    We have much love for PJ here in the Hawkeye state :-)
    But I would happily travel many miles to see them anywhere in the US this year.

    It only makes sense because they haven't played in Iowa in a while and Wells Fargo Arena is a pretty good venue, and downtown Des Moines is very underrated. It's also within driving distance of most other major Midwestern cities. It's a slam dunk. But you're right, I will be traveling anywhere else they play (hopefully) in the Midwest.

    Saw the chili peppers at Wells Fargo and it was great.

    But don't get carried away, downtown Des Moines suck unless you are use to living in Ottumwa or some other god awful place. :lol:

    Sioux City? :lol:

    I used to live in Des Moines and now live in Springfield, MO. I think it's underrated, or at least had somewhat enough for me to do. I think it's a great idea at least for PJ to come there.

    Noblesville, May 7th, 2010....
    Ed let us sing the entire beginning to Betterman. He had just done Lukin and he said his voice needed a rest. :D

    He then stopped the song in the middle of the song, after we had sang it to perfection and said that we "were fuckin' hired!"

    And he then proceeded to tell us that Mike had just said off-stage how much he loved the Midwest, what a show! IMO Best bootleg of the entire US 2010 tour!!

    Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMMmTTv_42s

    I predict it will happen the weekend of Aug 24 when I have to be in a wedding... I wonder if PJ will play Boston, New York, Chicago, Philly, Camden or L.A. this year (laughs).

    Minnesota would be better but I could swing an Iowa show most likely if it happened. I'm down either way!!

    I think a rumor about PJ playing in Des Moines has started every year since Wells Fargo has opened..
