So what’s everyone’s favorite place to eat at the hard rock? Night one we went to Hard Rock Cafe which was great. Looking to do something different tonight. the Bol had me interested…::
We took an uber to Billy’s stone crab. High high end but if you want sustainable stone crab and seafood it’s the best around.
Ooooohhhhh might have to add that to the list. Extended the trip until Thursday so that and Rocco’s tacos are on the list. Ty
El Camino on Las Olas has a killer Happy Hour & the food was great… wife & I got dinner (including a beer) for $31 on Friday.

I just passed several people walking to the pool with skate decks. Get em while they’re hot
I'm curious, for those who flew to FL for the show, what's the best way to travel home with a skate deck? Are folks checking them in luggage or mailing them home? I need to get ready for ATL. Thanks.
I would rather pay an exorbitant amount of money than wait in line for 7.5 hours with no guarantees
Yeah, my wife would kill me if we waited in line for 7.5 hrs. The 2 hrs waiting for merch is a tough sell for her LOL.
"Honey, what's your plan for tickets tonight?"
"Well I realize we're in South Florida but I figured jump in line at the casino box office around 10 and hope for the best by dinner."
And her reply...
Wait a fucking second! Are you telling me we flew from Chicago, to Miami, left the kids with MY PARENTS, 3 nights hotel, so you can see a band that you have already seen 37 times.....
AND YOU DONT HAVE ANY TICKETS?????
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

Yeah, my wife LOVES the band and our real first date was their last show in Miami, 9 years ago. But there was no fucking way I was convincing her to take off of work and go hang in a casino ALL day so I didn’t miss a plastic PJ license plate.
I also couldnt leave our dog at home alone ALL day AND convince my wife to head out to a casino by 10am just to get in a line, and then what? Gamble for EIGHT hours until the band came on? (We did donate and RSVP to the pre party but couldn’t make that either 🤷🏼♂️)
For folks that don’t live in the Miami/ S.FL area, trying to get ANYWHERE down here from 4pm-7pm is typically a traffic nightmare during the week.
So this was a nice anniversary show for us. We had a blast at Night 1 but we didn’t get there early enough to score any of the show merch, as so many people have said, theres gotta be a better way. Maybe it was just me but ALOT of the decks I DID see were in the hands of younger kids, so that’s actually fucking awesome.
10c shut me out of Night 2 though. I don’t care what anyone else thinks these days, 10c seniority used to matter and I think it still should. I’ve been paying dues for just shy of 30 years now, there was a brief period of tours where I didn’t have to worry about tickets at all, seniority mattered and 10c sold me tickets for any show I requested.
Wife and I have the Sperry Miami ‘16 poster signed, doodled and framed, hanging in our bedroom. I don’t remember that one being nearly as difficult to get my hands on as this recent Ames…maybe it was? Chuck came to Art Basel Miami later that year and was nice enough to draw some hearts and a beach scene on our poster before we framed it. I think the FLL Klausen and the Miami Sperry posters from those first two nights of the 2016 tour are amazing compared to this Ames shark…weird this one is gettin so much hype. I do enjoy the tiny anti Musk/Trump details but they’re barely noticeable.
Can’t believe the prices people are throwing at even the regular edition posters on eBay…course, I also can’t believe how much $$$ some folks musta thrown down to sit in some of those suits with couches just behind the pit…3K a ticket? More? And I do mean SIT, for the entire show…yay!
Oceans to open is unbeatable for me…seen it many times down here in Florida and once in Honolulu, LOVE it every time!
EDIT: (lol, just checked the setlist and Release, Of The Girl has gotta be my second favorite opener of all time…sheeeeet, you lucky Night 2ers! 🤘🏾)
Present Tense, Leatherman, and Footsteps were all highlights for me. Setting Sun is a wonderful new closer!
With all that’s going on in our country today I woulda enjoyed a slightly angrier Eddie, definitely woulda loved to hear a Grievance and a RITFW second encore woulda fit nicely.
Wonder if they are playing Grievance tonight!?!
people seemed to dislike the Dead Pioneers. I loved them! Bands like them and the Codefedants are great examples of the future of punk rock!
Oh, and CLEARLY the venue was way too hot! That place is less than five years old and should have an incredibly modern and powerful HVAC AC system. To have TWO people pass out and cause the show to stop TWICE at a modern indoor venue in unacceptable.

Wait a minute, was the licenseplate made out of plastic? Snatched a real Florida-plate on the market here in Little Havana for $15.
We trew the towel around 7PM tonight, decided just to enjoy our last night in the states with a good dinner instead of going to the venue with no guarantee or overpay for tickets. Had some ups and downs mentalwise about it but there’s something with modern needs.. need to be blessed that i’m capable to travel overseas to see a show instead of feeling down i couldn’t see them twice.
Loved Dead Pioneers, but was a bit bored of it after 30 minutes. Wondering about the setlist of tonight, should come in any minute..
To the know it alls back when public sale occurred, the ticket prices did not come down on Ticketmaster near of show for Saturday. The secondary market is still about 785 min day of show. There hasn’t been a plethora of ticket extras on the board. So I feel justified buying my PJ premium day of show to get four friends together.
Could I have spent hours and hours refreshing or networking to save a few hundred bucks? Maybe, but don’t have time for that.
The prices go down if no one buys PJ Premium. Demonstratably true on every level, every show.
But if people would rather bite the bullet & shell out $600, $800, $1k a ticket, that's their choice. If they didn't, the regular fan (or lapsed) would be able to buy those Premiums at face value by about 4:30pm or 5pm today.
If you're good with dropping that kind of dough to see them, good for you. It's good to have that kind of passable income to do so in this day & age.
But I make my threads & posts for the blue collar fan. We can barely afford the current average of $190, but we save up & go to every show we can (or go into deep credit card debt😅)
I had house damage from last year that gobbled up all my time & funds. So any shows I go to on this tour are coming out of my tax return.
So, hope you enjoy the show tonight. I'm going to keep trying to help folks get tickets to see their favorite band without paying an arm & a leg.
2k for a pair is crazy. I literally spent less to travel and see them in Maui in 1998. Now I can’t afford 2 tickets an hour from my house. Plus I’m frustrated. Paid my FC dues for years and in the last 12 years I got tickets to one show (Tampa 16)
That's BS, man. I think home zip code should definitely factor into 10C lottery results. Wish you were here!
(Great poster, btw)🤙
Thanks!
I just hope they visit Florida again soon. They've played Nashville, Central Cali (Fresno, Sacramento) regularly now since 2020. They went to Texas 2 years ago and played 4 arena shows. Florida gets 2 shows at the small Hard Rock.
I never ended up getting tickets. I couldn't afford 2k for a pair of tickets. Hope everyone that was lucky enough to get in had a good time. Hopefully, they will come back soon. I'll try again.
Being 1 (Tampa 16) for my last 6 (Ft L, Miami, Jax 16 and Hard Rock 25) for Ten Club ticket requests didn't help.
