So I got screwed and have to attend a class where I present my Senior Thesis on Thursday night and the class doesn't end till 8:20. I'm already going to Philly 2, but I am so bummed about probably having to miss Philly 1. My options at this point are to spend a lot and go to one of the MSG shows to make up for it, which will be much more expensive, less convenient, and likely won't feature as varied of a setlist. Or I could just show up late to Philly 1 (I could probably get there at 9:00) and hope that I don't miss too much. What time do you think they will go on? This tour seems to have varied from 8:15-8:45. If its 8:45 it would probably be worth going.

    I think it's been around 8:30 - 11:30pm? Even if you miss half an hour, you'd still have 2.5 more... I'd say that's worth it...

    I can't think of a better way to celebrate completing your senior thesis, so get your ass down there.

    Has there been an opening act? If so, who?

    Nope, no opening act. In Lauderdale they came on around 8:40, in Miami, it was almost 9:00.

    You would probably miss 30-45 minutes of a 3+ hour show. Tough call, but I'd go for it. I'm also crazy though :lol:

    Thanks everyone. Now I'm leaning towards going. 3/4ths of a show is better than no show at all!
