    It was a last minute, spontaneous decision but I am officially going to the Hampton show as well now! I got my tickets early today. It will be 5 shows I hit this tour (if Raleigh isnt cancelled). Ill see you all in VA! So very excited!

    Nice... In the pit, Marcus?
    No, I opted to do Reserved this tour. My father is hitting Hampton with me, we haven't went to a PJ gig together since Bristow 2010. Then the other 4 shows will be with my girlfriend. Gville will be her very first PJ show. She's only 5 ft 1 in, GA wouldn't be the best option for her. So it will be great to have these experiences. Plus, I've only hit 2 shows in a tour before, and 5 will be huge for me. So Matt, are we looking at maybe having a BTN video for Hampton?
    Maybe. I'm in the pit and I plan on that being my 'lose my mind' show so I can't commit. There is a guy named Dennis Justus on YT that hits all the VA concerts and records. We'll see what he comes up with. I can tell you we have 4 sets of substantial (90+%) footage from FLL and MIA so those two are a lock. NY and PHL shows are locked in as well.
    Good deal, that's great! I think I remember reading on the BTN FB page that Gville and Raleigh were likely as well?

    DO NOT SPEED ON I-95 IN VIRGINIA

    you have been warned

    I will second this notion to the fullest extent!
    Don't ever go 20+ over any posted speed limit. And don't ever go over 80mph, period, regardless of the posted limit.
    i would go 5mph over the limit MAX on I-95 at all times... cruise control is your friend

    Awesome news!! One week from I will be on the long road to Hampton. I cannot wait. This show is going to be bonkers.
    As I was standing in two hour lines in the hot FL sun this weekend, people were talking about their next shows. Definitely a consensus that "Hampton is THE show" of the tour. I hope it lives up to the hype we are all group thinking ourselves into believing... please please.
    Im not surprised to hear that, and that's one reason I have kept this Hampton show in the back of my mind ever since I decided during the lottery that it would be too much $ at that moment for 5 shows, so I skipped Hampton at that time. BUT I believed ever since I saw the venues on the day they were released Hampton and/or Greenville will be the top tier show(s) of the tour. Therefore, Im super excited that I am going now. My seats arent the best, but I am in the building with you all and thankfully its one of the smaller venues this tour! The outside of it looks beautiful too.

    I live in Denver now (moved from Richmond Va). Not making it to any shows. I hope you guys enjoy the Hampton show, it's going to be Epic!!!
    (Be careful parting in the lot though my friends)
    TCB⚡️

    why careful in the lot? do they allow a tailgate? cops are dicks? i hope so, its gonna be 73 and sunny.
    This might sound crazy, but are they any good surf beaches around the arena? The weather is looking nice!

    No, I wouldn't think so. VA Beach has small waves. My daughter drove down last week for a day during spring break and said there was nothing happening. The surfing in that area is in the OBX. But that's a good 2+ hours away. You would need a wet suit this time of year.

    Greenville looks small too. I think Hampton is even smaller. To your earlier question, I am in Raleigh and Greenville too. Greenville I am fortunate because a client of mine has season tickets to that venue. So we are on the side in Row A. Should have a good view. I plan on recording there for sure. Raleigh is 10c reserves. We should try to catch up one of these places.

    Pick your beach. VA beach is the only VA one on the report. The rest are OBX and down. You can see when the wind is coming in, the OBX are 2 feet larger on average. http://obxsurfinfo.com/reports/

    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    My bad. I should have noticed that as I'm a big fan of Harry and the Henderson's.

    If anyone would be willing to pick up 1 poster, 2 stickers and 1 button for me, it would be greatly appreciated. I will in return buy you a poster, 2 stickers and 1 button. If not, no worries, I completely understand the hassle of it all. I'm making this freaking show but it's going to be right at the time of tip off so I'm going to be running late.. I can Paypal ahead of time if needed. Sorry for asking, it's just one of those tight fits for me and this show. So freaking excited for it! PJ4LIFE
