    come on guys you can do it, make Memphis the greatest show ever, just go for it, after all why not Memphis a city with just about as much music history as anywhere in the US, why not see just what kind of show you can really give, no show the day before and no show the night after, make October 14th, 2014 a historical night, 10 miles away from West Memphis, and it has been 14 years, 14 fucking years since the last Memphis show, so make it worth the wait
  • BUMP :)
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....
    fade away...

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.

    I love all those songs but the whole point is to let Eddie and the band come up with what they think is the greatest setlist ever, and if they do that it doesn't really matter what songs they pick, I am sure everyone is going to love it, if Eddie does read this I don't want it to become a request thread it kind of misses the point

    but of course I think everyone wants to see the Light Years dedication for Rivers

    I know right? 19,000 with that configuration all the sound is going to funnel down, it is going to be bonkers in there, especially if they put on the kind of show we all think they are going to, Eddie should go out in the fans and they should play Amongst The Waves, but instead replaces Waves with Fans so he is singing riding high amongst the fans, it could bring the place down
