***Official Please Play The South Petition***

Thank God its Friday! Today's brilliant thread of the day will undoubtedly be the "Official Please drive from the South to the North" thread. I love it when we annoy the fuck out of losers like the person who started that one. Why is it so hard for someone to get it? Nothing but love coming from this thread. All we are saying is that we love this band and we hope they play somewhere down in our neck of the woods the next time they tour the US. That's all! Why is that so bizarre? You would think PJ had never played The South the way some of those simple minded thread starters think/post. The truth is, prior to 2006, there is no precedent for them skipping large sections of the country, much less them skipping them without letting anyone know. A lot of people do travel long distances to see shows. I'm probably in the minority. The farthest I have ever traveled is about 5 hours, but many people down here have been just about everywhere the band has ever played
I know I shouldn't get pissed off at the trolling wastes of space who start threads like that, but its just so ignorant. How could any fan of this band not have a strong desire for everyone to be able to see them do what they do best, perform? Dude, their music and their live shows are something that should be shared and enjoyed by all. Hell, I wish they would go right to the house of the fucker who started that thread and play in his/her living room. How someone could be such a dick, I will not understand. You would think the MANY people who have posted in this thread are jumping out of the computer screen screaming "PLAY THE SOUTH" repeatedly at the people who start those negative threads. What are we doing to annoy them? Posting on a message board?
Excuse the rant, but I needed to get that off my chest. Kinda sums up my disappointment in what is a very vocal but small minority of PJ fans. This post won't do anything to stop that. There will still be the requisite 5 new threads a day with the idiotic, uninformed, stereotype laced monologues. While I will never lose faith in this band, I am starting to lose faith in some of the fan base.

Sorry! Just needed to vent for a bit. I feel much better now. You guys should try it! It's a good cleansing mental exercise. And damnit, where are those bat wings?


PLAY THE SOUTH
PLAY "GUAMY'S" LIVING ROOM

Cmon NCBRI - you're a smart guy. I'm sure you realize by this time in your life that there are people out there who have big problems - mentally, emotionally and psychologically. They do that shit just to try to get under people's skin. It gives them some kind of cheap thrill because they're such fucking unhappy people. They're buttholes, they're ignorant and for the most part they're to be pitied. Hard to believe that people like that could be Pearl Jam fans but there's no rule that says you have to have your shit together to enjoy good music. Hell, you know that. As much as I hate to admit it, and if you think about it you know it's true, I have seen big time assholes at PJ shows. Proportionately fewer mind you, but assholes just the same.

Have a great Friday everybody...
and PJ

True weenie. It would be nice to think that we have that nice little slice of utopia and that all PJ fans are like us... but sadly that is far from true.

Yes, I'm hurtin' on the "official" tour news. Really is bothering me. As if there is a problem.

Not trying to string out the Bat Wings answer, but I think someone can get the answer in the next few hours. I have and will try to pose trivia questions that are not easily Googled, but I thought someone on this thread would surely know whose hands the wings ended up in.

Faithfull.

Robert Plant? (WIld shot in the dark)

Being from the North, I'm not sure why anyone would get upset about a thread like this. I'm happy when pearl jam plays anywhere in the US because it means there is a chance I'll get to see a show. I think you guys are due for some shows and I'd love to travel and see a few. So............



Play the South!


Hoping for some good news from JTR today (and an answer about the bat wings)

Did Yoda really say that??????????

Don't get the wrong impression. I fully expect and have been assured that everything will work out as planned. It is just taking too damn long.

BAT WINGS, BAT WINGS, BAT WINGS.

hi there ~ i woke up with the mother of all headaches today, couldnt even make it out the door to the gym, which i honestly do enjoy, so 8 hours on this computer with my head pounding and my neck aching should just be an effen treat!

that being said, i'm obviously not 100% over here, and maybe that explains my overall shit attitude and feeling of extreme disappointment that we are still waiting for an answer and still obviously causing a huge problem for random people on the board simply by keeping our peaceful movement going in this single orderly thread over here on the porch. i agree with ncbri, it gets under my skin sometimes that other people have such a problem with us, even though i know it truly isn't worth it and they are insignificant in the overall big picture.

we didn't come here to piss anyone off, we just want our pearl jam like the rest of you, so if our thread bothers you, then just stay out of it, go around it, ignore it, whatever it takes. i think i speak for the group (or at least the majority) when i say that we're not going anywhere just yet.

It's Friday, there is good basketball on all weekend and I leave for vacation in one week. I know that last one doesn't do anything for anyone else but lets all have a good weekend.

Please Play the South

Awwww, now you're just rubbing it in

I am out of resources, IF I don't flat out know the answer I check the threads, twofeetthick, google articles and finally emailed 10c (well they did say "info" email address). Being "older" (and I am not complaining), I have no friends (other than here) to call that know the slightest thing about Pearl Jam and my few brain cells that are still intact are not coming up with any more ideas. Soooo... I wait.


Uhh, is PJokieFan right? If so, why would they give it to them?

Kat

Has this thread stopped being a petition thread now? If that's the case, and it appears that it is, it's time to move onto other threads or PMs for various personal discussions. Thanks for cooperating.

I thought it was a damn nice mix of both, petition and interaction. Not much different that other petition threads on here. A year is a long time, but if all we can say is,

~ Play The South ~
~ Play The South ~
~ Play The South ~
~ Play The South ~
~ Play The South ~
~ Play The South ~

the, that is what I will say.
Oh, I'll add, PLEASE!

in general PJ fans are special..they have to be....appreciate really good music....but as in any group there are some turds......I assure you...most northern fans wish us well. We've had examples of northerners coming on here and sending their support. Do hope your head ache goes away....drink some caffiene..that will do it...
