Philly 2 (in GA about 10 people back between Stone and Eddie, tough to beat)
Wrigley
Philly 1
Wrigely was its own special experiance, but loved being in GA in Philly. I actually had 10C reserve seats, and traded with a fellow member whose pregnant friend wanted a seat, rahter than standing in GA. They ended up with great seats, and me and my freind in the pit - win/win.
6 shows. Here they are if I had to rank them. Can't wait for the next tour.
LA1 - the crowd was frisky, one got kicked out, one ran on stage.
Phoenix - had GA tickets. Eddie seemed like he wanted to prove PJ was still the **** at the beginning of the show. As he drank more wine he softened up.
Wrigley - a long fun day.
San Diego - a great night.
Oakland - GA tickets. I really enjoyed hearing Light Years.
Seattle - I had crappy tickets, but it was still great. Seattle is a fun town, aside from it being freezing!
3 shows total.....All three had a different 'feel' to them.
San Diego, LA1 & LA2.
SD and LA1 are neck&neck in my personal rankings.
San Diego had a family feel to it...very intimate/around the camp fire feeling. Eddie's Mom, Mike's Dad, Matt's son+drum teacher from school...they were all there. The band was having a great time, and it extended outward toward's the crowd.
LA1: 'Danced' my ass off for 3 straight hours....would say this crowd had more traditional concert energy than San Diego had....Saturday night show, lots of pre-drinking going down. I had just enough to enjoy the concert and recall everything I saw/heard. Spin the Black Circle into RVM had me jumping!! Starting off with Pendulum/Release/Long Road...and Garden 1/2 way through the 1st set...amazing. Best LA show i've seen.
LA2: Sunday show....much more subdued compared to Saturday. Not bad though....best poster of the 3 shows. Oceans, Blood, Breath & MOTHER were highlights.
These boots can't come quick enough for these shows!
