    i'm from ct too. east haven (no i'm not one of those wanna-be assholes though). i'm so easy when it comes to venues. i have no problem with the meadows whatsoever. i absolutely LOVED that hartford show!! my friend and i each picked one song we wanted to hear that night no matter how crazy. i chose sleight of hand, and my friend picked i got shit. got em both!! what are the chances? garden was amazing. i'm open was history. black was one of the best versions i've heard. ohh, and inside job was unreal. i'm also only 16 years old, so i was real young then. quite an experience. cannot fucking waaaait for them to come. i just listened to the koplik interview. the whole ticketmaster thing was a smart move by him. i can see pj in ct, nyc, nj, boston, or philly. lookin foward to this summer baby! looks like a lot of other great acts are in store too. pj, stp, rush, and maiden would be a fuckin sweet summer.

    um, if you think a canoli is a fortune cookie with whipped cream then you have absolutely no idea what real italian food is. jesus man.

    I have eaten there, a three block walk from the Arena. Had an antipasti plate and the Calamari. Was stuffed in a corner at the bar because of the Happy Hour suits, apparently no tables without a reservation. The food was top notch, what I had anyway...Just had problems getting the bartenders attention and putting in an order.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    I had no issue with the cops in hartford..
    It was the vibe of the venue..

    the parking lot was pretty beat up with broken vodka bottles and trash all over the place...

    alot of the crowd seemed really drunk and angry..

    (the 16 oz beers may have contributed to it, but hey these people were drunk coming in..!)


    from polling other 10C jammers, I heard similar impresssions...

    IMO..

    The show was sonic.. the venue is the sh*ts though..

    Lots of love for Ralph and Rich's. We used to go there when I worked at the Downtown Cabaret.
    And there IS a Pepe's close to Habour Yard. They built one in Fairfield. It is 5 min away. Same awesomeness on crust.
    Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
    And I don't feel right when you're gone away
