What are some PJ references you've noticed within ESPN shows?
A few that pop to mind are - obvious ones like Kenny Mayne/Ament segment, Steve Gleason feature. Then... Neil Everett throws in PJ lines during sportscenter such as "Got Some if you need it," PJ has promoted albums on ESPN playing various songs over highlights,shows etc, ... what else?
PJ - 36
EV - 5
(**Letterman'02, Irving Plaza, Storytellers, Beacon, ACL, Spectrum 3&4, Bridge School '10**)

  • I feel like there were a few in the mid-90s. Maybe that was some other band...

    They called one player "The Fixer" last night after mentioning Eddie playing with Theo and Joe Madden last week.

    A couple lines about the Wrigley rain delay this morning.

    It was more than a couple of lines. When they came back from a commercial with Kenny Mane and Neil Everette Peal Jam was on the big back drop and they started talking about the Wrigely concert rain delay and how PJ played till 2 in the morning. Neil started quizzing Kenny on which songs did they play but Kenny couldn't remember and wanted to move on and talk about their next segment which was a baseball rain delay so Neil kept jabbing at Kenny and making PJ song references. Pretty cool.

    I bumped into Tony on the street and said hello before the Brooklyn 2 show in 2013. We were crossing the street at the same time.

    I also saw Kenny at Wrigley and said hello to him at Eddie's solo show in Newark in 2008. He seems to be a big fan.

    Kenny Mayne is good friends with Jeff, if not the whole band.

    It's weird that he didn't have VIP seats either night.

    Yea, I know. I was just short on time. Neil sked about Corduroy, Nothingman, Porch, Rearviewmirror I think. Kenny just kept saying "I don't remember".
