    Wish I could make this. PJ and the Avett Brothers on the same bill is musical perfection for me.

    They are neck and neck with PJ as favorite band. And they are incredible live. I'd recommend their whole catalog, but Emotionalism is one of my favorite records of all time by anyone.

    I feel really bummed for the promoters at Deluna, because it seems most everybody prefers Atlanta (with the exception of the seriously dedicated who are determined to hit up both). But hey, fucking Piedmont Park has got to be one of the best outdoor venues on the east coast, so hell yeah. I'm there.
    I wish I was the verb "to trust" and never let you down.

    Im in. But this DOES NOT count as a Southern tour... Disappointed we are most likely getting only festivals...

    Peidmont park is amazing. But I'd rather go to the beach. So, im doing both. But, I want PJ non festivals in the south.

    yes 10C...plz dont string us along. At least w/bands like Phish and DMB, they'll announce a tour w/many dates and add very few. Some of us are trying to make ends meet each month...i'd rather go to a local show in the fall/winter if this isn't gna be it but at the same time my lil bro is moving to ATL in July so it'd make for a great trip to see him & PJ. I just dont wanna shed $400 on plane and concert ticket to find out they're gonna be doing a fall NYC/NJ/CT tour

    just my 2 cents...been looking up flights all day from NYC to ATL and the best im finding is $322 which seems redic for 5 months out

    As an Atlantan (although living out of state at the moment), I would rather have had a stand alone show...but given we haven't seen them since 2003, I'll take what I can get and am thrilled about this!!!

    I'll be traveling back to Atlanta for this, from Alaska. Can visit family and friends and check my real estate. Make a vacation of it.

    I'm just happy they are FINALLY coming back to Atlanta. At last!!!! :D:D:D

    atlantic city is begging for festivals for music. they put dave matthews last year for the first time, then booked a rap show a few weeks later at the smaller baseball stadium, it used to be an airport, pearl jam could play there own festival there if they wanted to, it be sweet if they booked it for 2013 or 2012 labor day. metallica is having a 3 day festival there this year in late june. ac wants this atleast once a year. so that would be sick, philly area and ny city has lots of pj fans, this shit would draw tons of people talk abouta good location, ac 2 or 3 day pearl jam festival would be sick, fuck these other festivals deluna and midtown, pj should do there own fest and draw a big crowd

    That is weird as I thought Ludacris was dong the acting thing full time, didn't know he was still active. But festivals do try to mix it up as a means to be hip & different.

    I like some hip hop but just don't see the need to see it live with all the sampling and prerecorded beats. Maybe this will be different and it's always good to expand one's horizons I suppose.

    I do not know what to do?? I am interviewing on Tuesday for a new job. If I get this new job, I probably will not be able to get time off to travel to Atlanta to go to this show. The new job will not start until Aug. 25th- so how can you ask for time off when you haven't even worked somewhere for a month. Tickets go on sale Saturday. Should I buy tickets??? I need a new job because my current job is going to give me a nervous breakdown, but I haven't seen PJ live since 2009. I couldn't make PJ20 because my son got married that weekend. What would you do???
