    I smell too - I'm gonna pick McCartney at Hyde park over this show. Still get to see the same # of PJ shows as I was gonna skip the 25th show anyway.

    Still sounds like a ton of fun.

    I got myself a ticket and am having second thoughts about going, if anyone wants to take it off me.

    I initially got that ticket thinking some others were gonna go. Turns out they're not. So I'm only 50/50 about going.

    I must introduce you to this squat bar I found there... kept going to the same spot outside this disused lift's doors to pee, trying to get it through the crack.

    I may have been a bit high and/or drunk.

    I don't think that way, not any more. Setting aside how damn annoying it is to have seats around me, Philly spoiled me, big time. The people I go on tour with are more important that the shows.

    Anyways, I haven't made up my mind either way. If I go, great, more good times with people in Nijmegen. If not, great, more good times with people in London, then we head to Berlin together.
