    She actually was a friend of the family, and we all happened to go. It was about 7 years ago. We both liked their first album.

    The good news is, I converted her to The Jamily and she was happy to schedule our honeymoon AND 1 year anniversary around PJ shows. We went to Kissimmee in '04 and AC in '05. She's been to all the shows with me, but how many wives would be willing to work PJ into such big events? Not many.

    I knew she was a keeper when we went to KC '03 and it was a MONSOON outside...literally pouring rain and she didn't bitch once. She had white pants on, too. We stayed through the whole thing.

    My first live concert was New Kids on the Block ... in my defense I was only 7 years old.

    The soundtrack from "Saturday Night Fever" is one of my favorites.

    this is all a very cool story. any girl that goes to see there boyfriends favorite band and it fucking pours at the concert and doesent bitch is most def a keeper, its like u almost have to marry the girl after that. thats a really cool wife

    I like bluegrass music. I'm not a big enough fan to know all the bands, etc., but I enjoy going to a good bluegrass fest and spending the afternoon listening to them play.

    I love some serious bluegrass. Not ashamed at all.

    But, I did once own a Limp Bizkit cd (that I bought.

    People have died from smoking cigars in a jacuzi. It's rare, but it happens.

    I have seen more backstage passes than I have birthdays.

    I don't hookup with girls who smoke.
  • this may kill everyone else.
    i could probably sing every lyric to every song on the first two nsync and backstreet boys cds.

    god help me...

    At a pj show at alpine valley my film was taken from me by security and i was angry at the band, in fact, it ruined the rest of the show for me. it seemed very hypocritical to take my film, ya know, like my basic right to snap a few photos was taken from me. Or on the flip side, if i never really had that right, i felt as though the little guy (me) was being squashed by big business or the gov't or some larger power. that just didn't seem pj to me and it left a bitter taste in my mouth, something that cut deeper than just the music. these photos were not going to be used for any financial gain for me. They would have ended up in a frame in my office. For a few days I did not like PJ. Am I off base here?

  • I went to a Linkin Park show... I actually liked them... And Evanescence too.

    And when I was 9 or so I bought a Backstreet Boy CD cuz I thought they were U2. It was the first album I bought... shameful.

    I'm starting to think the 10club is kind of lame. I don't own a record player so the holiday singles collect dust on my bookshelf. The newsletter is fine I guess, but if they don't play the south anytime soon, I'm beginning to think my annual fee could be spent better elsewhere. I remain in the club because I gotta believe they're coming down to Florida prior to the next presidential election. ANYWAY, there it is. 10C not really worth it for me since 2003 tour.

    I just got a record player....I havent been to tour since 2003 so I often think the same thing.

    You're in Jersey and haven't been to a show since '03?? Methinks that one is not the 10C fault.

    I've seen them practically every year. But that's because I travel and the 10C rocks.
