    Cheers is right!!! This is my first time writing in the message pit......

    I am so psyched for tonite that I can't sit still at work. Haven't seen them in FIVE LONG years -can't wait!!! I'm hoping for some B-sides like Brother and Alone. Member number is 270XXX, not sure where my seat will be. Five years ago, it was section 06, hopefully tonite it will be in the first three sections. I can't even IMAGINE winning the "lottery"!! Here's to a great night south Florida!!!!

    I "wish"! Have to work ALL day because I took tomorrow off! Going to try to get there at 6:45. I know this has been asked, but what are your thoughts on an Eddie pre-show tonite? Would love some Into the Wild stuff.

    My buddy just called. He is in Tampa at a conference, and is staying at the same hotel the band is at. He saw them earlier this morning.

    Not sure why I'm posting this.

    I hope everyone has a blast tonight. I'll be checking here in anticpation to see what the setlist looks like.

    they're staying in Tampa? I guess that makes sense. I figured that they would want to come to West Palm or something closer to the Atlantic side for better waves

    Aren't West Palm and Tampa a few hours from each other? You'd think they'd be closer to west palm for tonights show

    You just need to turn off your computer, get up from you desk, and walk out the door! Tell your boss you are done, and you may or may not be back tomorrow :)

    All of us at the show tonight will not disappoint, we are going to stoke the fires so PJ KNOWS they gotta tour the South!

    PS, I am going to walk down to the beach now, lean out and catch the sun's rays...its a good day.
