Patrick, it was a pleasure to meet you yesterday and thanks for all your hard work on the fundraiser. Being from out of town I thought the show was great! There are dumbasses everywhere and people like you and most people on this site are great fans and act that way. I come to Milwaukee quite often for business and it is a great city and I always look forward to coming back. Thanks again!

i've been reading about the milwaukee show and feeling so relieved that the newark show was relatively well-behaved...
but, listen...

the newark venue, NJ Performing Arts Center...
did not allow drinks into the theater.

i think it made a huge difference.

and i am so sorry a few MORONS made it so uncomfortable for the majority of the audience and for eddie :(

I so looked forward to this show and am getting alittle upset by all the Milwaukee bashing. Were not all loud mouth drunks that act like assholes at concerts. All over this world there are some bad apples that can ruin a great moment.

For the most part the yelling didn't bug me. I enjoyed the show so much. But when Ed slammed the mic down I knew it was bad. I feel so awful for those that came from out of state for this show. I'm embarrassed how Milwaukee is being judged. Maybe it's cause I'm tired from yesterday that I feel a little emotional.

It actually brings tears to my eyes that PJ or Ed maybe won't ever play Wisconsin again because of last nite. Many Milwaukee people that I know that went to the show are so sorry for what happened. Like I said I'm very drained of energy today. Thank goodness I called the rest of the day off from work.

I'm so sorry and upset about last nite and how this is making my hometown look. I've traveled all over this world and back. I miss many cities I've been too and look forward to going back to many of them. BUT I'M DAM PROUD TO CALL MILWAUKEE MY HOMETOWN.

Peace

Ohhh Milwaukay...one of the finest suburbs of Chicago around.

Yes, I thought Millwaukee was Algonquin for "The good land"

Thanks for your thoughts. I understand why you would take it personally but what can you do about it now? Try to forget about it and if you see any yellers on the streets, spit on them.

Ditto...great town and really a great show if about 5 individuals had not been there. IT ended badly, but I don't think it was due to Milwaukee...its been building up in Ed...from the mouth of the TOUR MANAGER.

Add to that Ed has some other heavy personal stuff on his mind right now!

Make Ed smile Chicago!!

Whenever something bad happens in Los Angeles... we have a built in alibi.
"The person who did the deed... came from someplace else."... because everyone in L.A. came from someplace else.

Says the guy who calls everyone from Illinois a FIB. Hmmm....

Anyways, I talked separately to two of my friends who were at the Mil. show. They said it kicked ass and didn't mention the anything about the yelling or Ed being pissed. And these guys are diehards, so I'm sure it wasn't as bad as you feel Pat. You comin down for any Chicago shows?

I don't mind the people yelling out song requests and such, as long as it doesn't interrupt a song or if Ed is in the middle of a funny story.

FIB was in jest...you don't have an acronim for WI drivers...come on!

You should, as I drive like crap in Chicago.....

Ed was pissed (very obvious), but maybe his hometown shows will change that....hope so...

I am very happy that your buds only saw the good in show, but I am 100% positive that Pat isn't the only person that is unhappy with the db's in the crowd. It was excessive, unnecessary, and disrespectful. Even my wife, who isn't a diehard, was shocked by the bs.

jordn6971 · August 2008

Did anyone on the message pit get the setlist from last night. I bet there were like 3 or 4 songs crossed out because Ed was pissed and ready to get out of Brew-town. Yeah and what was with that guy who yelled "You Suck" about halfway through the show.

*I am Given to Fly, nice

After stories from other shows I was happy my sig. other couldn't make it...she loves ITW, but would have been shocked by the drunk bs.

There were plenty of classy people there and the small percentage of assholes that were in the crowd did not interfere with myself being in awe of the whole night starting with Liam. The few classless people could not wipe the smile off my face.. Patrick you did an outstanding job with the fundraiser and pre-party, you were running around like crazy. Thank you for everything, it was a pleasure to meet you and a lot of other members!!! I definitley don't judge a city by a few assholes because every city has them. Eddie may think the same way, and I'm guessing they will be back.

faithful2you · August 2008

I don't regret making the 6 hour drive from out of state. My wife and had a great time....the booze might have had something to do with her good time...or maybe it was shaking Ed's hand at the front of the stage....I'll never hear the end of that one.

I'm guessing all the yellers were from Chicago so I suspect those two shows will be worse........

Had a great time Patrick! You did a great job with the pre-party.

I suspect he's wearing the shirt I threw up there right now.....:)

KDH12 · August 2008

simple answer is do not sell alcohol...... people act dumb when they drink

Brain Of E · August 2008

damn this is like the 5th or 6th thread about this shit, and it's making me mad. I haven't been to a PJ show since 2003, mostly because TX has been overlooked year after year, and the places lucky enough to get the Ed shows are ruining it. I wouldn't be surprised if he cancels the rest of the shows, and I kind of hope he does. Eddie doesn't derserve that shit.

My thoughts and feelings about last nite's Mlwaukee show.
