    i don't know, y'all, i'm starting to wanna give up....this vh-1 storytellers thing is like a dagger in the heart. so many regular shows (4 in new jersey alone, not to mention albany, philly, etc....), letterman, letterman aftershow, SNL, the irving, and now this....all these free shows....all these "ten club only" offers....every successive one is like another blow.....i'm sorry, i hate to be a downer...but this is really starting to get to me. it's like they want to rub our faces in it....

    I'm there with ya. I've barely even looked at the set lists, and haven't even thought about getting a bootleg. I'm starting to feel indifferent. Of course, that would completely change in a second if I had some hope...

    ive commented in a couple threads about this and ive been pretty held back in what i have said and im not a negative person, but i think the person above me said it best...its like a stab in the heart....people keep saying wait until 2007 but in all honesty i dont think its going to happen...they are going to hit their money makers on the East Coast and West Coast, go overseas and take their ball and go home or back in the studio...

    I'm starting to feel a little like that too. Apparently they don't give a shit about the southern US anymore, at least not enough to tell us what is going on.

    Oh, well. Glad I'm going to Philly this weekend.

    Bumping again for the cause.

    So, last US tour I was into every date and every setlist. I even started a website for Ten Club members to hook up with other members, see what seats other members had, and look at the stats on what songs the band had played so far on the tour (all of the things now available on other sites). I spent a lot of time and money putting all that together, mostly because I was excited about the tour and anxious to see the band when they made it to Birmingham and Atlanta.

    I was on the boards every day. I would follow each show song by song. Now, the only reason I come to the board or the website is to see if they have finally announced a show near me. I've got no enthusiasm. I don't care how great the new album is, if I don't get to see the band live, it's pointless, to me anyway.

    I just wonder how Ed would have felt if the The Who toured everywhere but near Chicago or Mike if Hendrix was around when he was a teenager and Jimi played everywhere but the North East. I bet they would be pretty damned disappointed, if not pissed-the-fuck-off.

    This is bullshit. Even for those of us that could afford airfare to another city and afford to take off work, we didn't buy 10c tickets cause we thought they would be playing shows near us later this year. If they weren't planning to do that, they should have said so. Don't want to / can't play the South, fine; but at least give us a heads up.

    Bullshit.

    I remember you and your site...it was very cool. Had a place to find/give a ticket....think we met in Pittsburgh.....

    I'm disappointed too, but what can we do? Maybe they will come see us in the winter! Here's to HOPE!
