as much as i appreciate your enthusiasm ... I think we have all kind of put ourselves out there, enough.



you win some, you lose some. I'm sure we will be hearing something though. Might not be today, might not be tomorrow, but the day after that......;)

This whole mess reminds me of that scene in Forrest Gump.

Remember? He decides to run, then one person decides to follow him, then another...until a whole crowd follows him around the country because they believe in him.

Then, one day, he decides to go home.

One of my favorite quotes from that movie comes from one of the runners:

Forrest: "I'm pretty tired. I think I'll go home now."

Runner: "Now what are we supposed to do?"

Great analogy!

Play the South sometime in '08.

This thread still has my FULL support. As long as the message is PLAY THE SOUTH. And that is not going to happen in 2007.I feel That the thread has turned more negative then anything in the past week or so.They will play the south.Just don't know when right now.Maybe in 2008 ? ,Maybe when they have a new album? I respect the fact that they want to be with their families.If that is what will keep them together as a band. So be it.They are adults.I trust my source with all my heart.I all I want to do now is talk about PJ,Friends and positivity.

but ...... i didnt even get to call anybody a bitch yet:(



why do you take all my fun away!

I feel guilty answering you because then the thread does not actally die...

Hmmm.... I find it hard to give up. I'm still at "5 across the lips" phase.

You are right, been-there-done-that as far as letter writing...

maybe we could ask the mods to unplug us?

I'm not a religious person, should we have a final word?

Word.

shit

We arent giving up We gave it a hell of a run... and we can still do that... but it seems like everyones a little "tired" and unhappy... (understandably so)

ill still give them beesnatches from pearl jam five across the lips when i see them, dont you worry;) I just figured , maybe.... with all the negative ness ect ect.... we might get shut down... and that would hurt. I dunno, you guys arent making this easy

because it is fun talking on here.

Someone should post the list showing all of our post totals to this thread, and then gardenlover should post that the little birdie has flown back north. I'll play Sleater-Kinney's song "End It on This." Then we move on.....

My feelings towards the organization are still very negative. Their lack of honesty and communication are contrary to their musical message and what they spew in interviews. Until that changes, they are just another corporate rock band to me. stoneg, you are welcome to pass that on to Ms. Burns.

Thank you everyone for everything. :mad:

tybird! Come on buddy. Why dont you come see me over the summer? We will have a good time, pj or not. Please dont be so upset

"She's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead"
Coroner of Munchkinland

Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain.
Week before, they all seemed the same.
With the help of God and true friends, I come to realize
I still had two strong legs, and even wings to fly.

And oh I, ain't wastin time no more
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes, and faster things.

Lord, lord Miss Sally, why all your cryin'?
Been around here three long days, you're lookin' like you're dyin'.
Just step yourself outside, and look up at the stars above
Go on downtown baby, find somebody to love.

Meanwhile I ain't wastin' time no more
'Cause time goes by like pouring rain, and much faster things.

You don't need no gypsy to tell you why
You can't let one precious day slip by.
Look inside yourself, and if you don't see what you want,
Maybe sometimes then you don't,
But leave your mind alone and just get high.

Well by and by, way after many years have gone,
And all the war freaks die off, leavin' us alone.
We'll raise our children in the peaceful way we can,
It's up to you and me brother
To try and try again.

Well, hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes
Runnin' after subway trains
Don't forget the pouring rain.
