    The population in the NorthEast is much greater than in the south. Megalopolis covers the cities from Virginia beach, DC, Philly, NYC and boston. The drives are shorter and the population is bigger. I hope that they play the south. I always though PJ was about the music and giving everyone a fair shake (10Club, downloads) however now it looks like they are not. I love PJ and petition for them to play the south.

    "i'll say again:

    Just try. Try to name a part of the country -- or the world, for that matter -- that's done more for music in the last 150 years than these Southern United States.

    We birthed the blues. We launched rock 'n' roll. We've been the seat of gospel, the bastion of bluegrass, the home to the world's hottest hip-hop. We've dug deep down to our Nappy Roots, fostered Stephen Foster, screamed "Sweet Home Alabama" and gotten straight-up Ludacris, from Memphis to Mobile to Uncle Tupelo.

    Southern music encompasses all kinds of styles, yet it hangs together as a coherent genre. Nobody's ever heard of New England music or Midwestern music, but down here we know that rock can have soul and rap can be country, and even wimpy folk can count so long as it's got Carolina in its mind. Southern music's more of a sensibility than a sound.

    The South is about big ideas (like pain and redemption) and small pleasures (like the look of grandma's hands). The South is also increasingly diverse -- racially, economically and politically.

    If our music has a common thread, it's the thread of hope -- hope that this mystical land won't lose all that's made it special and that it's not too proud to admit when it's wrong. Those are some big challenges. But they're nothing the music can't handle.

    so c'mon down PJ we'll welcome you with a table of great food and sweet tea with fresh mint!"

    Gardenlover--very eloquent!!

    Add me to the list hoping to see southern shows announced....happy to travel to see the greatest band in the world!

    Don't know whethermoonbeampainter said it, or Gardenlover, but either way very well said - and great perspective. Thanks!
