    Fuck yes. We're coming from Montana, arriving this Sunday and making a whole week of it. Only been to NYC once, never thought I'd get to see Pearl Jam at MSG. And during burger week, oh my!

    A warm welcome to you folks from Montana. I'm a die hard New Yorker but I got married near Missoula. Montana is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! Let me know if you want to grab a beer!
    Wow, cool! I love Missoula, we go there all the time because they get all the good music. We're just 3 hrs. down the road in Bozeman. I'll shoot you a PM, we'd love to hook up with a NY local who shares the love for our home state!

    I'm in full anxiety mode for the rest of the week. Good anxiety. Like a kid before Christmas. I can't wait until the lights go down Sunday.

    Speedy get the pastrami brother! You cannot eat all 3. If your hotel has a fridge you can but those suckers are big sandwiches.

    2 in Philly, 2 in NY...no work in between. So very nice!

    No doubt, I will be taking a sandwich for the road. Im thinking Saturday at about 4am, after an evening of drunken nonsense, that sandwich is going to be quite tasty!


    I love drunken nonsense
    So hard
    I am very curious to see where my Saturday night leads me. Again we are staying right across from MSG. After a day of checking out some "tourist sights", I am curious to see where I end up. Local joints? Hotel bar? Times Square?

    Should be interesting.

    I would suggest going down to the Village and wandering around. There will be some music and some a-fucking-mazing Italian food to be had. Midtown is played out and you will be around plenty the concert nights.
    Hotel bar....are you staying at the New Yorker? (You said you were right across the street) They swapped out Cooper's Tavern, which was the bar there forever...and they made it "brighter" --- which was not a good move. Still not a bad place to pound booze but wander down to Mustang Sally's or one of the other older places around there -- Jack Dempsey's? for drinks vs. staying in the hotel bar. I loved old Cooper's was a great place to get wrecked.
    Best news is the subway is right there and you can easily get most anywhere in the city.

    I'm real excited

    I'm off Thursday Thru Tuesday
    Doing Philly then back home for both MSG's. So happy I took off following these shows, sucks rushing back after a show to get to sleep @ a decent hour. Now I'm chillin and enjoying the fun built around the actual show.

    They will tear the roof off!!

    Thanks for the advice. I get in early Saturday afternoon and was wondering what to do Saturday evening. The Village it is!

    Go to Lombardi's for some great pizza down on Spring street. If you're in the mood for some good greasy southern food, Jacobs Pickels on 84 and Amsterdam is a good spot but it gets crazy on the weekends around lunch time.
