East Coast Touring Van - Who Wants In?

Alright, here's the deal.
I'm 19, male, and hoping there's a PJ tour going on this summer on the east coast! I'm from Toronto (Canada), and will make a point of being wherever this tour starts.
I was wondering whether anyone's considering touring, and would like a young PJ touring buddy. Don't even have my license, but would chip in on gas costs, as well as tickets (though my number's 349xxx). I'd also love to bring along a video camera, and try and document it, a la touringvan, and share it with everyone. Any takers?

    I might be down for this
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

    Bump. Any more interest? Ever since I saw the touringvan movie, the idea has intrigued me - a bunch of people in a van with the same passion for this band. There's gotta be more people on the east coast who want to see Touring Van '09 happen, and want to participate in it!

    To be honest, this idea's a way to help expedite getting fans to shows. I personally could care less how dirty this van will be - so long as it gets us to the shows on time!

    I could think of about 20 people who'd sign right up, but what do you mean by young touring buddy? Gotta be underage?

    I got my G1 (learner's permit) when I turned 16, but with school and everything, kept neglecting taking lessons for my G2. Now it's even harder to find time since I'm at university.

    By young touring buddy, I was actually referring to myself. I don't care how old the people I'm with are - to be honest, most of the time I prefer adults to people my own age. Plus, I've never been surrounded by people who share the same love of this band. That's what I'm looking forward to most.
