I will be moving to Vermont in June and am going to a bunch of shows. Anyone else on here live in Vermont and love PJ?

    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

    We'll be moving to Sudbury which is close to Brandon on Lake Hortonia. We are living with my wife's folks until we find a place. My wife will be teaching in Rutland and I too will be teaching, but do not have a job yet.

    Any future Albany shows will be easy travel for you. Boston... not so much. All good roads in VT run north/south. East/west travel usually involves winding roads and frost heaves.

    It'll probably never happen, but I've always hoped for PJ to come to Manchester NH. They have a decent arena there and the drive back from Boston or Mansfield usually means getting to bed at 3AM. I'd kill for a 1-hr drive. If it's good enough for Judas Priest, isn't it good enough for Pearl Jam? Hahaha.

    That said, I'm happy to drive 3 hours. It's better than nothing.

    agreed, its better than nothing. the good thing about living in VT is being within a reasonable driving distance to many shows on a usual tour. the bad thing is that none of them are really close (say an hour drive, most are 2-3-4 hours away).

    I know; after living in Bellingham, WA, I got used to driving to Seattle or the Gorge or Vancouver, so I know how it can be. It's worth living away from lots of annoyances and people.
