An amazing night after what we thought was going to be a show we were not going to get. I still remember stressing out the whole day about what the weather God's were going to give us that evening. And fortunately after what seemed like an eternity in a delay, we got an amazing show.

    When the rain comes they run and hide their heads. When the rain comes...

    Awesome night.  Thought the rain was going to ruin it...they came out flying once they actually started.  We're Going to Be Friends was really cool.  Can't believe it has been 2 years already...holy shit do I miss concerts.

    Rain in the rain is a top 5 PJ moment for me.

    Worth every bit of waiting in line all day and stressing the delay.  Snapped this pic during Porch!

    What an absolutely unforgettable show!

    In the middle of the show there was a Daughter/It’s Ok, Unthought Known, Immortality, Jeremy set of four (maybe not in that particular order) that ranks with the best 4 consecutive songs I’ve ever seen.  It might have been the best 20 minutes ever!

    4 years ago today, I got to see PJ on my Birthday at Wrigley.

    I feel kind of lucky having gone to the 2016 shows.  Aside from a small rainfall while waiting in line for night 1, it was really nice weather.  Sunny, reasonable temperature, and the humidity seemed to disappear for those shows.  It was like the porridge that was just right :)

    PTSD... still managed to recover a decent spot but damn that was a gut punch when the storm safety announcement happened.

    That being said, I'd sleep outside Murphy's Bleachers for 10x the time I waited then if we could have a live show again.
