How was the rest of the show? I fainted during "Wishlist".

We All Believe

So much for my first proper show in 5 years.

Super hot out all day, super sweaty. I didn't sufficiently hydrate. Got dizzy while getting food early on, but it passed, & I felt great.

I rocked out HARD during "Even Flow". Too hard. As "Wishlist" started, everything started turning white. Then I apparently fell into my poor 80-pound cousin twice (I'm 6'2, 320), and she somehow held me up before I fell backwards. Her husband & another guy caught me.

Beyond embarrassing lol, people dumping water on me, and I had to exit right in front of the stage, so the whole fucking band saw me & like 10 security guards and EMTs. If you remember looking at the security aisle & seeing a giant in a Who bullseye t-shirt wobbling all over the place, that was me.

Spent the rest of the show in the medical tent. Feeling better now, but not going today.

Beyond bummed. I was really looking forward to this. I had a super shitty year last year, & I've made a big comeback, & the perfect way to cap it off would have been by seeing my 2 favorite bands (PJ & The Pumpkins) in the same weekend.

sorry to hear this! Most important thing is you’re ok.

Oh wow, glad you're ok now though!

Was this one of the times Ed stopped the show because it looked like something was going on?  I hope everyone's ok, glad the band is SO observant (and have people watching crowd who are so observant) to try to see things like that.  They can't see everything but they sure are attentive.

You won't make that hydration mistake twice, so I hope your next PJ show is great for you!

Rough lesson OP! Glad you are ok.

I took my sister to the '13 show in Spokane and she fainted(heat in the pit and beer all day).  I think it was during Lightning Bolt and she hit pretty hard.  We spent the remainder of the show behind the stage listening to the show in the medical room.  Sucks!!!  I feel ya.  Travelled from New Mexico and saw, maybe 6 songs.

Glad you are ok.

Ed stopped the show to make sure you were ok! You may have missed the rest of the set but to have your favorite band stop to show to check on you is quite the badge of honor.

Glad you are doing better!

Someone in my section actually passed out right before Wishlist. Just to the right of the stage. You guys may recall Eddie pointing to our section and asking if everything was alright (and not noticing everyone yelling “no”). Turned out okay though. He was conscious within a few minutes and they got him out of there.

So yours was the first right, when he paused story time to check on your area? The “I’m getting mixed signals” response?

I didn’t even think it was that hot but I guess if you were out there all day it catches up to you.

Yep that was it.

Wild. Someone near me actually had a seizure during even flow Fenway 1 ‘18. They got them out of there pretty quick as well.

Oh wow.  I'm so glad you are OK.  We need you and all of the good that you do for the world, buddy.  
Sorry this happened but glad things turned out ok for you.

I was not the Wishlist stopper. I remember that happening. It was apparently soon after, at the end before they went into Waiting On A Friend. There's like a 10-minute block that I don't remember.

Yikes, Andrew. I am glad you are feeling better. Well you got the band’s attention. It is great that things have turned around for you from last year. Keep that momentum going.
