I'm sorry but there's never been a PJ song that's a gigantic bucket of ice water on the crotch like "Unthought Known".
Unthought Known and Ole'....I really hope this isn't where all of their music is gonna go...Christ they are awful songs.
lb has similarities to unthought known....but it feels a lot more complex. maybe too much so. i liked the music, but couldn't understand what the fuck ed was saying. it almost sounded like an incomplete song to me, actually. the other one sounded like an eddie solo. i think mym is cool as shit though.
we were sitting right near where the family and friends of the band were located. (to the right of the sound board thing in shallow right). seeing ed's brother hold up his daughter on his shoulders with jill swaying back and forth right next to them during release.....was a beautiful thing. awesome moment.
Also, chicago was great as usual. I just want to go on record as saying this fan base is certifiably insane. All I wanted was a T-shirt, but I refuse to wait in line for 4-5 hours...especially when the heat index is over 100.
The merch lines were probably the craziest thing I saw on my trip...and the lines were like that all three days. Yes, even worse than PJ20.

The merch lines were probably the craziest thing I saw on my trip...and the lines were like that all three days. Yes, even worse than PJ20.
short of food and water to survive on I wouldn't wait in line for 4-5 hours for anything in this world. that is pretty crazy.
been waiting to see how you guys from this thread who went to Wrigley made out. any issues during the delay or transportation issues afterwards?

yeah, 4-5 hours and it was hotter than hell. Needless to say, I never got a t-shirt...and I won't lose any sleep over it.
During delay I just went to the capt morgan bar, which was located right behind our section (I was in first row on the concrete wall around the field in section 140...great seats. people behind us were from Drexel Hill, which was pretty cool -- and crazy). It surprisingly wasn't that crowded in there. I think most people hung out in the concourses, which seems ludicrous to me.
We bolted for the exits right after the last song. Got on first train outta there. Was much easier getting out than it was getting to wrigley friday afternoon. Had a cab driver flat out tell us that he wouldn't take us there because traffic was too bad (after trying to get a cab for almost an hour). We really are lucky to have the sports/entertainment setup that we do in philly. Super convenient compared to other cities
Concert was great, but definitely not the best I've been to. I thought PJ20, any MSG show, spectrum were all better. Crowd was pretty tame (maybe I'm just used to the NE crowds)...I think there were a lot of people there because they could afford tix, not because they were die hard fans. I know the show went til 2 am, but there should NEVER be people sitting during Porch.

that's why I hate stadium shows as you get a large percentage of people there just because of the event of it and not really the artist necessarily.
and agree 100% on the philly sports/entertainment complex. thank god they didn't put the phils stadium downtown.
I don't get the problem with getting to Wrigley. We took the EL and didn't have any problems when I was out there. Public transportation is a wonderful thing.

that's what we ended up doing. I'm lazy though, so I will always take what I think is the most convenient route. Our hotel wasn't really close to any train stops, so I figured it would be easiest to take a cab. Huge mistake...took us close to 2.5 hours to get down there once we got a cab and got shot down by the cab driver. Damn right I made him drive us to the train station though.

Haha, wait, I remember the stop I got off at was right across the street from the ballpark.

Those some expensive cab rides.
I meant going from our hotel to wrigley. Was only about $15 (went over there weds and thurs to try to get merch...ended up in bars instead).
You should have seen the subway...mad house. Nothing like the smell of hundreds of sweating MFers pressing up against each other in a confined space.
Good luck. The day I flew home from mine is still the most painful day of my life. My then-fiance wanted to take me to the hospital. I don't think I can ever do 3 nights in Vegas again....at least not when I'm there for a dudes trip.

flights home from vegas are the only times I have ever hoped for a plane to crash. those trips are great until that flight home

the concourses were driving me insane. i was getting claustrophobic. luckily the wife had the foresight to purchase a couple ponchos earlier. so we waited out most of the delay behind the visitors dugout.
you're lucky you got out so quickly after ritfw. we milled around on the field for a bit waiting for the place to empty. when we got out, it was so late, people were saying the trains weren't running anymore...or were but were few and far between. so i said "fuck it, we'll find a cab somewhere." turns out that was a bad idea. there was hardly any and there were thousands of pj fans fighting for them
so an hour later after roaming the streets of chicago in the middle of the night with a scared for her life wife, we stumbled upon a limo driver who asked if we needed a ride. 60 bucks later we ended up back at our hotel. didn't get back till quarter after 4. i was mentally preparing myself to walk all the way back . fucking weird night.
epic show because of the circumstances...but the fact that they were forced to leave off 7 or 8 songs keeps it down a few notches for me. stupid weather.

Fuckin' A. A plane ride home from Vegas is the complete opposite of the plane ride to Vegas. All I can think about is curling up in the fetal position, crying, and telling myself how awful a human being I am.

That's what I did on the way back from mine. No point in delaying the flight until later in the day because you are going to be completely miserable either way. Plus, you get home at 5-6pm as opposed to 9-10 pm which is just brutal. Where you guys staying at?

Completely agree. That's why we did it. Just the MGM. Decent priced suite. Didn't want to go too crazy on the room. Very pumped.

Hey, don't knock MGM. That lazy river is the shit. Along with that sportsbook and poker room.

Yeah, man. I like MGM, a whole lot. Definitely a good sports book. Where I stayed when I went out for the Super Bowl this year. Just not one of the new shiny ones.
It's sad that the phils aren't even mentioned in this thread anymore...they're really not worth talking about. I hope amaro gets hit by a bus...preferrably before he screws up this trade deadline
How can you pretend to be in it and put out a lineup like last night. Delmon is hitting better than Dom now and Martinez is back. If Dom is out, who is going to want to see this team play?
Alright, alright, alright!

Same for delmon young.
That play by mayberry last night was tremendous. I'm still laughing. If that doesn't prove that he can't play CF I don't know what does.
This franchise is a disaster...trade everyone. Start with the dumb ass GM.
Apparently they are working on an extension for utley. Not sure why he would want to stay here. This team is gonna suck for a long time

Atta boy...not much better than destination bach parties. that's where I had mine as well. 3 nights of near death.
yeah I wouldn't be able to pick those people out of a lineup full of midgets.
hopefully this is the week that amaro comes to his senses and trades kendrick, chooch, papelturd, DP young, lee.
Wait until you hear Future Days...or whatever it's called.
The merch lines were probably the craziest thing I saw on my trip...and the lines were like that all three days. Yes, even worse than PJ20.
