    goodnight PJ nation!

    "I think I'll be a clown when I get grown," said Dill. "Yes, sir, a clown.... There ain't one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I'm gonna join the circus and laugh my head off." "You got it backwards, Dill," said Jem. "Clowns are sad, it's folks that laugh at them." "Well, I'm gonna be a new kind of clown. I'm gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks." To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 22
    “It’s the idea that people living close to nature tend to be noble. It’s seeing all those sunsets that does it. You can’t watch a sunset and then go off and set fire to your neighbor’s tepee. Living close to nature is wonderful for your mental health.”

    anybody else notice that the south got the finger from Tool as well? Except Texas and Missouri got shows. There aren't even any gaps in their itinerary straight through to '07. What the fuck curse did who the fuck put on us and how the fuck did we merit all this maltreatment?

    just wrong!

    Thought I would add fuel to the flames:

    Pearl Jam Rumor Pit
    Issue #29
    January 23, 1998

    "Due to the tour response, and a petition of 12,000 signatures presented to Stone requesting a Perth show, one will be scheduled at the end of the current dates. Great going Perthians!!"

    OK, I'n no longer in Tifton, GA. I am now in Stone Mountain, GA - a suburb of Atlanta.

    So . . . here is another BUMP FOR THE SOUTH!!

    By the way, I live in Texas and obviously want and have been pushing for a show there, but how could Atlanta have been left off this tour? I mean seriously. Look at the history this band has with Atlanta. The famous Fox Theater show in 94. The 2000 show is one of my all time favorite boots. The 2003 show was one of only two to get Crown of Thorns (and it got Chloe Dancer!). Eddie even said "Atlanta rocks!" at the end.

    Yeah, I remember that....
    Of course their former producer, Brendan O'brien, is from here. They used to spend a lot of time here.

    What in the heck are you doing in Tifton and Stone Mountain!!! Napping under an old oak tree?? NO NAPS ALLOWED IN ATLANTA

    I'm a trainer for my company and sometimes I have to travel to some of our factories and do some training. We have factories in a lot of small towns like Union City, TN; Stone Mountain, GA; Tifton, GA; Orangeburg, SC; Danville, IL; Marshalltown, IA and others.

    And also some bigger places like Los Angeles and Montreal, where I spent about 3 1/2 months last year.

    I come to Stone Mountain quite a bit.

    Oh, okay. Well, depending on your tastes, I guess places like Stone Mountain and Tifton could be a nice change from places like LA. Bet you meet some real interesting people...... At least you cover both coasts and everything in between. That would be fun! We need to encourage a show at the Tabernacle - here in Atlanta. Ever been there? BEST PLACE FOR A CONCERT (next to the Gorge) Although with your job, you can see them just about anywhere.

    Hi there! *waving*

    Yeah, I get to meet a lot of cool people and get to see both big cities and very, very small ones. Its fun traveling with people from my office, but it sucks when going alone. Although, eating alone can be interesting too because people tend to walk up and start talking to you, especially with a giant avocado and 'Pearl Jam' on the front of your shirt. LOL!!

    Anyway, my job did let me catch PJ in Ottawa and Montreal last year.

    Would love to travel to Atlanta to catch them.

    I saw them at the Fox in 94 and it was my first show....love that place! The Tabernacle would be awesome as well, I've been there a few times and love it. Either works for me!
