    I also teared up at that video. Does anyone have the story on who Josh A is and how this happened? What an amazing experience!

    That YL video was amazing. Loved the hug at the end! Inspiring.

    I've been debating skipping this tour since I was not on top of the ticket process and I got COVID back at Sea.Hear.Now, so a little bit of PTSD about crowded events (and my wife is immune compromised and my Dad has cancer). But after seeing that, I think I need to get in on an East Coast date or two, even if that means paying an exorbitant ticket price.

    Plus, I'm currently experiencing Round 2 of COVID and it's super-minor thus far (knock on wood). Nothing like what I experienced back in Sept / early Oct last year when I was really laid-up for 8 days and had 21 total days of symptoms.

    Three shots, two bouts of COVID, what else can I do? If I'm not protected by now, I guess I never will be!

    I got it at Ohana Encore and was shaken by crowds for a bit. Just had it a few weeks ago and was completely asymptomatic. Made me feel better about doing SD>LA2

    Only if it was a PJ show during the songs Cameron played live that were pre-Binaural.

    Glad to hear you were asymptomatic! 

    I did two high-risk things in 2+ years:  Sea.Hear.Now. and Las Vegas trip two weeks ago (for work conference). Got COVID both times! 

    If I get it a third time and it's like this, I won't care.

    This is the only way out, mass exposure to all humans multiple times. I’m dealing with my 1st bout right now, couple of rough days but I’m feeling good today, hoping to test negative by Monday so I can still hit Sacramento after missing the Oakland shows. Omicron a lot less severe than Delta so I’m glad I made it this far. Being vaccinated and infected is the most robust protection. Hopefully in a few years Covid is just another common cold.

    Flying in for Sac in a few days. I’ve got pit tickets too.  If Matt isn’t better by then, this would be such an amazing opportunity for me.
    just to have Ed tell me “why the f**** did you say you can play drums, you look like an idiot” before kicking me off stage and ending the encore short would be a night to remember forever.
    Just tell them you only know the super rare songs.
    ”I only know Dirty Frank” is a good start 

    everyone is happy and you are everyone’s hero 
    Except for the guy who started the "play the hits" thread.  :D

    Does anyone know where the play the hits guy has been the last few days?   Not one to start rumors or conspiracy theories but too much of a coincidence to post that thread and then circumstances dictate the band having to play the hits.

    He was last seen delivering room service (and a vial of something) to Matt's hotel room the morning after the AZ show, not been seen since.

    I saw someone on social media say Jeff A picked him out of the crowd since he had a shirt with all of the PJ drummers names on it and he could actually play.

    Josh A nailed it but better than that was him and his daughter hugging at the end.
    Just as good; Josh's decision making in what shirt to wear LOL
    Wow. Chills and tears. What an incredible moment. If Josh A is on this board, would love to get a recap!

    Eddie asked the audience if anyone knew how to play. He brought up The Who when Keith passed out. Then the cameras pointed to the guy in the crowd

    If you want to see how Josh A ended up playing Y. Ledbetter with the band... here is a video of what happened.
