    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.

    Also the thread title should be amended to 2025.

    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.

    The crowd during Nothingman and Jeremy in 2010 was maybe my first jaw-dropping in awe moments of seeing them and the energy the shows create.

    Hartford 2013 was one of the best PJ shows I’ve ever seen. I’d rank it 3rd- only behind Spectrum ‘09 night 3 and MSG night 2 ‘10. Incredible setlist and one of the best more energetic crowds I’ve ever seen. I’d go back to Hartford in a heartbeat if they come back.

    The XL center is a special room.  It is not boston and it's not new york.  Smack dab in the middle.  Lucky to have grown up nearby and countless bands have filled that room with great music. I never miss a Hartford show. PJ comeback in 2024!
