    ill tell you what im going to start the I hate seeing pearl jam at the tweeter center thread because there are better places in the philly area to see a damn concert.....the only time i like the tweeeter is in the middle of summer.....why oh why will they not play at the wach again or even citizens bank park....NO MORE TWEETER

    It would be a logistical nightmare. The Lacrosse Championships for D-1, D-2, and D-3 are at Lincoln Financial Field Memorial Day Weekend, plus it's possible and not probable the Flyers make a deep postseason run. Having a show at the Spectrum or Wachovia Center would just be a traffic night mare and there would be little room to tailgate as the lots will be full of lacrosse guys.

    GO TO DC CONCERT TUESDAY NIGHT (less than an hour drive for me)

    PACK BAGS CALL OUT OF WORK FOR REST OF WEEK ...
    HEAD UP TO JERSEY WEDNESDAY MORNING

    Stay in shitty motel Wednesday, Thursday
    Concerts on WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY

    Wake up Friday Morning ... go bum around the shitholes of Jersey ... MAYBE go to New York ... come back ... crash one more night.

    not sure if memorial is one of them ...

    i know three are in the last few months of the year ...

    EDIT: asked co-worker ...
    answer = YES ...

    ok... but that doesn't make my trip any less hectic ... i guess it just gives me a buy on feeling shitty for one day.

    That sounds like my work. We had to fight last year for Christmas and New Years b/c both were on the weekend. We actually had people splitting the Monday after each holiday b/c we had to have people here.

    Maybe he can rap a little too. Throw in a little of TO's new song and mix in a little of Deion Sanders "Must Be the Money". Then he talk about how he blinged out he is and how much cheddar he makes.

    That traveling schedule seems rough. I wouldn't do it...not on the East coast. I might do something like that out west or in another country. Four shows in one week is my limit. That means four nights that I won't be there to put my kids to sleep. My life is different now and I'm trying to find a balance that I'm happy with. If I were able to catch a show or two on another leg I wouldn't be going to Hartford or Washington. I don't think that I'll be able to so I have to squeeze a bunch in now. Not my preferred way to see the shows but I'm not complaining. Some people won't be able to see any shows. I know that feeling. I lived that life in the pre '95 years. I appreciate every show I'm able to see...especially the Borgata. :D

    Get ready for the sale...don't forget to breathe.
