There it is bitches. Let's hope my predictions are wrong about the weather for next weekend and this forecast changes for the good. It will have to be hot because it's always hot there for Pearl Jam. The heat may inspire them to play Satan's Bed as well so bring it on.

i was JUST going to post the weather here, i just PM'd to fanch. no lie!
well as of yesterday it was sunny so well see, ill be OPTIMISTIC about this...for once
"I hear Fanch has a Pimp Cup and loves Kiss. I think that's all that really matters."
the red sox are going to get swept this weekend baby! and who the fuck is that they are throwing out there on sunday?
no schill= sucks (guess he cant take the boo's, that pussy GW supporting, bloody ankle faking, trade me because we suck, piece of shit)(just kidding about the fake bloody ankle thing )
That's what I was referring to. I was trying to lure him out. Hell yes I'm at work.
oh, i was bitter for a millisecond when i thought you were going home for the day while the rest of us slave on the computer! i hate debtors. do they give you bullshit too when they are trying to refi? ugh!
i tried to get bubba to come out and play earlier but he refuses!

well i will be in attendance tonight, i guess that means ill have to talk shit on the sox the whole time while im there, sigh...
speaking of sucking...jim thome...wtf...he already has 16 homers, the phils should change their team name and color, maybe then the players will perform better.

Right, right like I'm scared of a team that got swept by the Milwaukee Brewers.
I guess you're upset that Schilling is not God because I know you were in New England last weekend when the heavens opened up with over 5 inches of rain. I guess you wanted Schilling to come out there and raise his arms to the heavens to stop the rain so his start wouldn't get pushed back so he could beat the Phillies. But alas, Schilling is not God. And if the Phillies owners actually wanted to try to win they would have kept Schilling and Rolen. I gave Montgomery (Phil's owner) an earful 3 years ago at a Penn basketball game when I was sitting next to him and the governor and just ripped into him for 2 hours. It was awesome because the game was against Princeton and it was sold out so he had to deal with my criticisms for 2 hours straight.

So tomorrow is the last Saturday before the big weekend.
I'm going to keep this low key this weekend and contemplate all of the possibilities next Saturday and Sunday will bring.
Two big shows(Chicago) are down and there are two left(Boston) before the band makes its way to historic Camden, NJ. I will be keeping a close eye on things by following the set lists and any information posted regarding sound checks. If you recall, Hunger Strike was practiced for quite some time before it was played in 2003. All those Yesterdays was reportedly sound checked in Chicago.
Once the 27th rolls around I will be seeing Pearl Jam at least once every two days for a week. I can't comprehend what that is going to be like. I've been going to Pearl Jam shows for over 11 years now and this will be the most I've seen them on any given tour and within the shortest time frame. This is a very big deal for me personally and I'm most excited about our shows in Camden.
I was excited about Hartford. Hartford was an excellent show but I thought that they were going to play longer. I ended up leaving the venue disappointed. I have since changed my stance on that performance. My predictions for that date were wrong and it clearly will not be remembered as a stand out date on this leg. Camden will be. I can't be wrong twice. If the unthinkable happens, the crowd sucks, and we get a lackluster performance...you will find me in the Washington DC thread come Monday morning.
Bring on the showers.. I got a big green tent and maybe I'll have to see about supplying a slip n slide for all the drunk tailgate participants to try out

i thought of that idea earlier but didnt want to mention it, i knew there would be comments made
"I hear Fanch has a Pimp Cup and loves Kiss. I think that's all that really matters."
ok im done working for the day, people are getting cranky, im getting complaints bc the allman brothers play really long songs that apparently all sound the same to some...it looks like its going to rain. i cant wait for next weekend. only 4 more days of work left!
"I hear Fanch has a Pimp Cup and loves Kiss. I think that's all that really matters."
id also like to add that this time in only SIXTY TWO days, 3 hours, and 12 minutes i will be leaving the office and making my way to the airport to board a flight to SEATTLE!!!!!!! :eek:
*in case anyone was curious of the exact time, i have now posted a countdown timer for seattle on my myspace

I'm not saying shit about the GR ticket issue, except this. Discuss.
Personally, I believe it was an "accident" (wink, wink) and will be rectified for future shows. It may have been an accidental wake up call to get the people upfront up and going again.
Because if this will be the new policy, ten club stands to lose a lot of money and piss off a lot of people if seniority means nothing anymore.
Also, I saw Big Papi hit an upperdeck shot tonight and the Red Sox beat the Sillies again. Any comments My2Hands?
I've been thinking about what happened with the tickets.
I think that it is a good move on the 10c part the shuffle things around when it appears that the same people are in the front rows night after night. That must get dull for the band. I don't, however feel that it is fair to do that every night. I have 3 shows left bought under my 10c account. If my seats got shifted to the back for all three of those shows I would be pissed. If it went 2:1 or 1:2 I would be fine. out of the 24 shows I've seen the band play, 5 of the shows were seen from row 6 or closer (3@R6, 2 @R3). I have been in the fan club for 12 years. I've always appreciated my seats...maybe not the shows...but always my seats. I don't consider myself a spoiled senior fan. This thing last night has me worried.
Let me ask this question: If I invested $100 in a CD 10 years ago and contributed $10 to my account faithfully each year, and you invested $100 in the same CD but not until this year and hadn't contributed anything else to it, would you be upset if my account was worth more than your's today? Would you be bitter? If the bank told me that my account was worth less than your's today should I be bitter or upset?
Am I out of line with my analogy here? Someone help me out because I try not to act childish but maybe I am. I can't decipher my feeling right now. All I know is that I'm worried because these shows are a big deal for me and part of that big deal has typically been my seats. 12 years is a long time to grow with the band and belong to the 10c. I don't feel entitled to great seats, but when they tell me the seating will be decided according to tenure in the club, how could you fault me for expecting to be seated closer than someone with a higher number than my own?
If I got into KISS tomorrow and FANCH has been a member of their fan club for 12 years, I would never expect their club to give me better seats than him at a show if their club provided a ticket service.
Good Morning everyone!
There is only one week left to go and today I'm beginning to come apart at the seams.
Did that sound like whining to you?
I just re-read it and it doesn't to me.
I will NOT be entertained by a whining comment today.
Today my sense of humor is not on well thank you.
My shows are over June 3.
Last night's set may be one of the greatest set lists I have ever seen.
ok, I will chime in afterall. I've heard Ed, at a few shows I've been to, and I believe most recently Albany, comment about how it's "Some of the same people up front... Ya see the same fucking people everywhere we go. Shouldn't you be off getting yourselves laid somehwere?" Ok, well it's your fanclub, and you know why it's the same faces, so if you think it's getting a little monotonous then do something. At the same time, while my number sucks, I will say that I feel it was a cool thing for those that weren't expecting it, but it was a bad move and will only alienate fans. While the senior fans are a minority, so that feeling will be minimal and there are more fans to stand to gain from the ticket shake up, it's still a poor move logistically. If you were to do this, it should have been done prior to the tour starting and with some notification just to divulge the policy change or what have you. If you are worried about fan morale and how people are supposedly reacting or not at the recent shows, then making people some sort of unofficial lottery winners by bumping their seats up is only a short term fix.
Ok, off for coffee and a pork roll melt. Hell yeah.

yeah make sure you ask the doc for the ointment

I've always appreciated my seats...always.
