As a life-long southerner, I'm willing to give Washington, D.C. to anybody for about 40 acres of farmland and freshly-made banana puddin'.

You hear me DC? We don't want you!

STFU!

hahaha sucks doesn't it?

seriously though, I was sympathetic for everyone who missed out on the 2006 tour because of this. and I feel sorry for people this time around (if these are the only US dates). but all the whining doesn't help anything.

Of course it doesn't "HELP" anything but hell, since this is a place to rejoice AND vent, thought I'd let it out!

Other cities that they could play...

INDY
Cincy
Nashville
Louisville
St. Louis
Chicago
Alpine Valley

Just sayin... And don't think that some more like me aren't bent!
Again, I'll pass. I'll wait and see if they EVER get close again. If not, owell!

I guess i'm just not "Diehard" enough to drive the 600 miles or so. Not my thang!

Get_Right

As someone from the South, DC may be south of the Mason-Dixon line, but it is definitely not considered part of the Southern region, culturally or geographically. It and Maryland essentially the cutoff point

Anyway, I really hope there's a second leg that includes Atlanta. I've waited five years and was very excited earlier, until I realized that June 16th is the day I'm planning to take the LSAT. I may decide to take the Oct. 4th one instead, but I've kinda set up all my senior year plans around taking it in June. Nothing PJ did upset me, I'm stoked they're coming back, just a whole bunch of really bad coincidences have really bummed me out

I'm in Louisville too, kind of annoyed, but what can you do? It looks like they left room for a second leg.

DriftingByTheStorm

The negativity that ALWAYS permeates this board is pathetic.

As said numerous times on here already, and as one could probably figure out just by having half a brain's worth of common sense related to how PJ has operated since at least post-'03 ...

this is just the first leg folks.
PJ aren't going to play summer, and NOT play fall.

Suck it up,
put on your big boy\girl panties,
rub some dirt on it,
and get back in the fucking game.

wipe of your tears,
cry babies.

Of COURSE they are going to start off with the big $$$ maker dates, you don't start off a tour by going in to debt to play for half empty arenas in the middle of nowhere.

:rolleyes:

Here are some words of love, kindness and 10C wisdom that were given to me by Lady Ms. Wight at the 10c window one year, that i will pass on to you now:

"Everything is OK. You're going to be just fine.'

Maybe they should work on those geography classes in Georgia.

I don't give a fuck.

D.C. is not the south.

Alabama is the south.

Really. This isn't 1865 anymore. How many people actually consider the Mason Dixon line a serious geographical division anymore...? D.C. is so far from being "the south". For that matter, I've never heard anyone consider Baltimore part of the south either...

DBS shouldn't you be over on the train talking about the economy?????

I'm well aware.

All I'm saying is that it's right next to Virginia, which is most surely the South and its south of the traditional border between the two regions. And it still has as much in common with the South as it does with the North. Just because you're from the South doesn't mean you have idea where the cut-off is. People who live in the Northeast definitely don't consider it part of their region (trust me, I grew up there).

JFK said it best: "Washington is a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm."

Ask any Southerner (yes, out in San Fran you might be surprised we are edumacated as well) if he considers Washington or Baltimore the South and 10/10 will say no. Baltimore did not participate in the plantation economy and did not secede from the Union. Washington, more importantly, was the capitol of the Union

Looks like you should work on those history classes out in California.

And as a preemptive strike, please don't call me a redneck/hillbillie/conservative, as I am far from any of those things.

What about the SouthWEST, you east coast motherfuckers?!!

Even if they add some Texas shows, TX is a big fucking state to have to drive through when you're in NM or CO or UT or AZ etc.

Didn't Tim say as of now there are no further shows/tours being planned? Where do these people get off saying they're playing Dallas et al????

binauralsounds

What's even funnier is that the few that are in this thread sayin "suck it up" or "just drive it" all live on the east coast. HAHAHAHA.
