    I have to admit, I am totally let down by those that run this site. The simple truth that THIS thread is not a sticky is insulting. Almost 1,500 posts and respect.

    Make this a sticky, PLEASE!!!

    I guess because they see several of us bumping on a regular basis, they think the 1500 is NOT legitimate enough?...... That's the ONLY reason I an think of.

    isn't there a rumor out there, from two sources (who seems credible) that they will hit the south in spring of 2007??

    i know its not confirmed - but its hope. one of those sources was the band that PJ had asked to open for them.

    hope.

    Yeah, but I'm not so sure that it wasn't a rumor that was started by people on this thread...... Seriously though, someone DID say that they knew a guy who was connected to a band that was asked to open. Besides I don't see how they can ignore one whole section of the country (all smart ass remarks about the South aside).

    One of the posters on this thread said they were told that by someone who works for PJ. I hope he wasn't shitting us. But, I don't think this person was since they have also been signing this petition.

    Building on that idea...play a bunch of off-the-beaten-path southern cities:

    • Chattanooga, TN
    • Auburn, Al
    • Valdosta, Ga
    • Murfreesboro, TN
    • Elizabethtown, KY (Rukus would open)
