    Yeah, that's why I put baltimore as my first priority. Less saturated market plus small venue (which is a total dump that I'm really looking forward to checking out) equals better chance of decent seats than philly/brooklyn

    On another note, you'd think the turd GM would be burning up the phones with two weeks before the trade deadline. Well that's not the case. Friend of mine had a beer with him in the Cayman Islands last night. There's no way I'd be able to do that and not give him a piece of my mind.

    Not a good showing for the phils tonight. Lee allows a run and brown pulls a howard (whiffing on three pitches)

    Yessir. It is going to be an absolute mess. I can't wait.

    Have a buddy driving from Phoenix so he'll be bringing all types of goodies.

    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.

    Seeing his brother would be weird - for some reason I picture the Frank to Sly's Stallone.

    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.

    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.

    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.
