Title says it all. Hartford is always fire. 2008 is my favorite show (give it a listen, if you never have).

Feel free to chime in with other New England destinations, but the goal? No Sleep 'Til Fartford!💨

    A drive down from Atlantic Canada would be sweet! I had such a great time at their '08 show there.

    The 2010 show was one of my favorites.  The 2006 show is probably the worst non festival show I ve been to.

    Hartford '98 was my first time seeing them. 

    Hartford '10 established them as a must see band for me after seeing them only once in the preceding 9 years. 

    Hartford '13 is one of the greatest concerts I've seen by any band. 


    Please play Hartford again.

    I was at 06, one of the worst PJ concerts I’ve been to.  With that said it was still good, because they all are good really hahaha

    I was at 13 and that one blew my mind.  Definitely in my top 3.

    definitely wouldn’t mind a stop there but I don’t think that is happening this time.

    Hartford 10 and 13 are some of the greatest PJ shows I've ever seen. I cant believe its been so long.

    96 if you got pepper sprayed, were you hopping the fence? That show was CRAZY!

    2006 wasn’t the worst concert - it was just freezing cold and both band and crowd felt it. 

    2008 was all about making up for it.

    After that amazing Wishlist Foundation preparty we walked up that hill to get to the Dodge Music Center. I remembered a section of the fence being down & many folks missing the first 30 minutes of PJ's set.
