    I don't care for festivals either. At 35, I am getting a little too old for all-day mosh pits and crushing crowds. However, I am still going to one if it turns out that the only thing they do this summer is festivals. Who knows? It may be our last chance to see them. Not saying they will call it quits anytime soon, but you just never know.

    Yeah, I lasted abut 3 songs in the mosh pit in Lisbon - unrestrained crowds (especially outside) are not my thing anymore.

    My husband is actually going to be over in Portugal when Pearl Jam plays the festival there - at first I was bummed (because I was not going - but got over it when I found out is was a festival).

    He will still go see them (without me!) and I am going to drown my sorrows in Key West with some girlfriends that weekend :)

    first being Sao Paulo Brazil....didn't even make it till the opening band started....they let us in 3 hours early...when the flood gates opened..and all those hard core parting folks that spent night drinking reached us...man it was rough....after about an hour and a half...watching people pissing in cups...then passing it forward..and being squashed...resigned to going to the back. Did it again in Switzerland...cause at first it was slated as a seated concert....but no..another GA...course it was a much smaller crowd...and was able to hang in there...but again...pain, sweat....not for me. Did get Eddies attention though....that was sooo cool. okay and worth it...but I'll take seats anyday over GA. Okay rant over.....

    I have e-mailed my friends in Seattle to see if it's ok to put forth the list as I have it. When I get a return e-mail I will send everyone a PM that was on the list from last week. Please do not post it.

    A while back I wrote this:

    "and then Europe onto US "weird progression" stops until The Bridge School Benefit and then go into the studio. Weird Progression is the tour order and venue selection."

    What I meant is that the band it tired as shit of the usual Live Nation/Clear Channel/Miller Lite promoted and venued shows and are trying to put together a more creative tour that is festive. The South is included. These odd venues and festivals are hard to tie down. The Chicago release this morning came out because I had been told it was ok to run my mouth today because it would be announced today - and I will bet that reporter had the same instructions.

    Either way, I will send the return e-mail that I get. I'm not going away ...

    I couldn't even imagine the Sao Paulo concert (I think I would just be scared down there)... must have been madness.

    Night II in Lisboa we sat along the side in the first row balcony, side stage. the best seats we have ever had! And we got to watch the mosh madness from above. It was the best concert I've been to so far.

    If festivals is all they play for us in the South, we'll have to go, but be content to spread out in the back, close our eyes and just listen to the music.
