    I've got about 5 weeks of vacation saved up and really nothing planned at all. $$ would be the only thing holding me back. It they are doing Hartford and Boston, I'll gladly take those 2. If not Boston, then I'll take a trip to Philly. Only about 8hr drive and probably cheaper than NY.

    I've had more fun at Hartford shows the past few tours than any other northeast city. I'm not sure if it was the whole "hotel attached to the venue" piece, the super cool bars pre-show, or the people. Or a combo of all 3. But I'll never miss a Hartford show again, count on that.

    This x 100000.

    Made it to Hartford in 2010 and 2013 and the combo of all the factors you mention easily make it the top PJ destination for me.

    May have to add a hotel to Hartford myself this time around. That 90 minute drive sucks big time.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Great tailgate, great city, great fans. And the band seems to love it there. Don't miss it.

    A Tower Theater show would make for some good reading on the boards.

    Let's save Tower for 2025 and do a few at Wells Fargo in 2016 :lol:

    absolutely! i wish i could go back to that week and the way i felt during it. special moments for sure. dissident is one of my favorites. and hearing oceans at my 2nd show is unreal. :)

    A Tower Theater show would make for some good reading on the boards.

    Let's save Tower for 2025 and do a few at Wells Fargo in 2016 :lol:

    why do you say that? I think it would be awesome! They're like the only band that hasn't played there yet. Eddie's played there and i;ve seen Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Radiohead, Tool, and soon MMJ.

    why do you say that? I think it would be awesome! They're like the only band that hasn't played there yet. Eddie's played there and i;ve seen Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Radiohead, Tool, and soon MMJ.
    didn't ed play his solo shows there? I think it holds a little more than 3,000 people; way too small for pj to play there. Man how scary was the neighborhood around the tower?!
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    A Tower Theater show would make for some good reading on the boards.

    Let's save Tower for 2025 and do a few at Wells Fargo in 2016 :lol:

    Just the size. If you guarantee me a ticket, I'm all for The Tower.

    Area isn't even close to being as bad as Camden.

    I stand corrected. It was the ride in that was scary as hell. Whatever section I drove through was definitely like Camden. I drove from jersey.
