    The suits don't deserve this song, they should save this song for msg!  Congrats on 150!  Msg will be show 60 for me.  
    While I don’t disagree with your sentiment, I know of several long time and passionate fans that will be in the Apollo. They all deserve an unforgettable experience more than the suits DON’T deserve one. Abundance over Scarcity. The band is a gift. See you at MSG!

    They should save Just A Girl for a show with more fans in attendance

    Still think they should have played it at PJ20

    what "suits" are going to be at the apollo? I thought it was all contest winners.

    I have zero knowledge (maybe the original suits commenter dose) but it was initially and still is a Sirius XM small stages show. Given the amount of companies owned by Sirius, I think it’s safe to assume there will be some executives in the crowd.

  • It hasn’t really sunk in to my yet that it’s Apollo week. So many emotions from winning tickets, then it gets canceled, we enter a pandemic, over 2 years later, that show gets rescheduled. Been over 4 years since my last show personally. How does that happen? Time is fleeting. What we have left is a gift. Cherish #149 and I’ll see you at #150.

  • Call it confirmation bias, but Apollo will be show #150 for you and the theatre capacity seats 1506. Coincidence? Yes, absolutely. But thinking positively is a life hack.

    Had to pull out the first time I was exposed to Just a Girl, or any "demos and rarities" at all for that matter.  Ah, good ole $50 boots
