It's only 10 days people, a week and a half. Get over it. Who's with me?

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Was thinking about going to D.C. I was hovering over the "buy" tab in the goods section. Didn't do it. Something inside me says I will regret it. Hoping they add some shows in the midwest, I will definately go!! Gas prices are killer, ticket prices are up. Remember when you could see PJ for 25 to 30 bucks!!!! Although high in price I will still pay to see the band. To significant in my life to not go.

    It's not the ticket prices that bother me, it's the cost of flights, hotels etc. It all adds up to a small fortune.
    Maybe next time :)

    i think they'll be back here sooner rather than later... i mean us Euros sold out all our tickets within a day or two... the US tickets were still available last night for some shows... whereas in the past they would sell out within the first day also.

    I think they've realised how much they still mean to us over here.

    i could be wrong but i just checked back to 1974 and it seems i'm never wrong.. i like that :)

    Lets hope you're right again this time then, we do seem to appreciate them alot more over here though. The yanks have been spoilt alot over the years and it's starting to show.
