    I don't think they liked that whole "Don't Mess with Texas" thing.
    When I was a kid, that was about not littering. Why would they be against that?

    In all seriousness....The Dallas show I went to in '03 had to have been sold out. That place was jam packed. I happen to know exactly why they do not come to Texas anymore....

    The Pizza sucks. End of story

    For Dallas area Pizza all you need is TJ'S Pizza in Denton. Best Pizza EVER! California Pizza Kitchen is second best.

    The best Pizza to ever leave an oven is Congress Pizzeria on Michigan Ave. in Chicago. I grew up there. I happen to have some expertise in the Field, I have been managing an assembly line run- of -the mill Domino's in Texas for a long time. Do not argue with me on this one.

    I was really hoping to see them included in the ACL line-up. I guess this means that there really is no chance of catching them this year. If they keep this up, the only people that will go see them are the people that followed the Grateful Dead endlessly.

    A whole counterculture of Jamaholics?

    The bad part is when they do play here ticket prices will be outrageous. Just think how much they've gone up since 03.

    Too much BBQ! The smell of dead, roasted animals is everywhere and most of the band is veggie
