    fuck this.

    they had to cancel the riot act show because the venue flooded out......

    so i think the show should have plenty of stuff from the last two records,not stuff that is almost ten years old.

    dig out your 98 boots if you want to hear yield songs.

    they are touring for a record called pearl jam,this is the stuff that should be played....as well as a heap of riot act since the city didnt get that tour.

    You coulda gone to Columbus dude. You're going to get some 8, and probably not much riot act. If you want some r.a. start your own campaign. Best wishes to you. :)

    Thank you for your constructive criticism. It has been noted and filed.

    Exactly- and the Columbus 03' show kicked ass. The band doesn't seem to be playing much RA lately... and truthfully, I'm pretty happy about that.

    Yawn.....This sentiment bores me. What difference does it make that the album is 8 years old??? It doesn't change how fucking amazing those songs are. It also doesn't change the fact that songs like Brain of J, Faithfull, No Way, Pilate, In Hiding, and All Those Yesterdays (which are some of my favorite songs EVER) are either never played anymore or are rarely played.

    Regardless, this is all in good fun. We're not saying that they should ONLY play stuff from YIELD.....Rather, we are saying it would be really cool to hear a bunch of YIELD songs in addition to the new songs, which sound fucking great live by the way. We are not anti-all-other-PJ-albums. We're just asking for one show if they could play us some YIELD.

    Your criticism bores me. How does it not hold up compared to the last records? Especially riot act....

    i cant explain it....

    theres something about yield i cant get into...the songs are too happy sounding or something...maybe it's the production.

    i like the songs live well enough,i just cant listen to the record all the way thru.i've never understood why that seems to be the benchmark record for a lot of fans......even the newest one,alot of posts said it was right up there with yield......as good as yield......

    i'd much rather listen to binaural or even riot act,as weak as the lyrics are on that record than yield.maybe they groove better....who knows.


    but,i also think hey foxymophandlemomma is one of the best things they have ever recorded.

    You could always try sending an email and attaching the postcard. That's actually not a bad idea.

    Hello all,

    Just checking in. Wrote up three more postcards which will be sent first-class tomorrow (it's worth the extra $0.12 for it to get there in a couple of days instead of 5). The YIELD Campaign continues.

    First few days of the new job have been excellent. Thanks to anyone who's PM'd me with their well-wishes. :D

    It's Saturday night and the Original Fanch just retired to bed a bit ago. It's gonna be cool to take him to the Reds game (they'll lose - I'm going) and to Hooter's tomorrow. Aw yeah.

    I also wanted to point out to those of you traveling from out of town - Cincinnati is very far west in the Eastern Time zone. You cross into Indiana and you're in the Central Time zone. That being said, the Cincy 6/24 show is right on the Summer Solistice, so you can look forward to some daylight past 10pm. :) Of course, this won't matter on the night of the show, but on the night before, yeah.

    And, the extended weather report is looking very good. We're a week out, but still this is good news.

    That's something I didn't take into consideration. Thanks for the heads up.
