Just got back from working 2 days of APW

Yellow Bedwetter

But I just wanna talk about the Newark EV show Thursday night:

Got to the arena about 5:50pm. Went to grab some food at the outdoor free festival at the NJPAC, a beer, then got in line to get into the theatre. Got in about 6:40pm, got into the merch line, and picked up 2 posters, EV White Zippo, tour shirt, and sticker/button set. Then got in line to get into the theatre.
Oh by the way, I got 7th Row Aisle Seats from TEN CLUB!! I love you guys.
Front Orchestra, Row B, Seats 2&4. My friend and I were the second pair of people in at Door C when the doors opened and the first to walk down to the front orchestra. As fate would have it, as I walked to my seat, a white little speck was on the ground. I bend down to pick it up and it happens to be a EV White Evil Kinevil guitar pic that Ed had dropped as he took a tour of the NJPAC before the show (he had said during the performance that he walked around the entire building especially the last row of the 4th tier.) So that was special.
On to the show. Liam Finn was absolutely incredible. I can't wait to pick up his album tomorrow after work.
Eddie was redic. Walking the Cow and Trouble were cool, but I couldn't have imagined that he was going to play 12 PJ songs and covers before he started playing ITW songs. Around the Bend, I am Mine, Dead Man, and Masters of War were absolutely spectacular. I was singing my heart out to MOW.
And this was the 2nd time I was in NJ where I got to hear a song Ed had written the night before. The 1st time was at Borgata 2; my first PJ show. The 2nd time was at NJPAC; my first EV show. It's gotta be fate.
The ITW songs were cool but the night, the acoustics, the crowd were so special you just knew he was playing a few to get them outta the way cuz he was supposed to be promoting the soundtrack but this was no ordinary night. Soon Forget and Forever Young, then Throw Your Arms Around Me w/Liam Finn (which is my girlfriend and I's song; I was able to call her in Iowa and let her listen in while everyone was singing - very special to me). Then the Q/A which I will keep for myself, Bruce's Growin' Up, Lukin, the 10+ min sing-a-long of "Let My Love Open the Door" I will never forget as long as I live, then getting to high-five Eddie after Arc and the close of the 1st Encore.
Finally, a very energizing Hard Sun 2nd Encore to close the night made everything Perfect.

Did anyone see the tall guy in the front with the Tan reaper shirt rocking out? Cuz that was MEEEEEEEEE
