    I don't have anyone to tell me how many I can see therefore I'll be at between 12 - 15. Half in North America and half in Europe :D

    I will only be able to attend a show if it is in Winnipeg, Minnesota, North Dakota, or maybe Iowa if funds and the new baby permits! I'll keep hoping for the 30 stop northern plains tour!! :?

    luckily, pj usually play a few dates in the metro NY area so i am good. i think this tour will be the first time i DON'T travel much to see them, and perhaps see less than my all-time low of 4 shows during my first tour, 2003. :P 2009 is all about economizing for me. 2003 thru 2008...i did a LOT of travel, a LOT of shows...a lot of countries, time, $$$...for pj and other travels as well. loved every minute of it! however, this year...different priorities. so i hope pj come by me for at least a couple of shows. :)
    Stay with me...

    For me it's about quality over quantity now. The days of traveling for a week or more and seeing 6 or 7 shows. I have no interest anymore in doing that. I'm not putting down the fans that see the whole tour or anything. But for myself I'm putting other things in front of touring and seeing PJ this time around. And I'm happy that I'm doing that. :)

    Oh and whoever said, ''that's what multiple credit cards are for''. Good luck when the bills come rolling in. And maybe you can afford it or your spouse can. But spending money that you don't have. That really can bite you in the ass sometime. lol

    Was just talking about this with my hubby and a co-worker today

    Will try to do as many West coast shows as possible and maybe go to Hawaii if they head over there... So, like BC, WA, OR, and CA....possibly Denver and/or Boise....much easier to tour around the US than Canada....Van and Calgary/Edmonton, Regina, and Winnipeg are HUGE long drives...

    Have not booked any vacay at work yet..and the boss is getting antsy....

    Once we are in the US we can probably give rides to folks ... could be fun!!!

    I've lived in Ohio my entire life.

    I've seen PJ only three times live.

    None of those shows were in Ohio.

    Maybe this is the year I don't drive at least 8 hrs. to get to a PJ show...

    ...who am I kidding, just means I'll have to go to more shows!

    Here's to hoping that all the money you guys are about to print devalues the American currency so that when the tour is announced, I am not paying an extra 25% for my tickets, flights, hotel rooms and food :mrgreen:
