    I've been waiting anxiously just for the last two weeks, how am I gonna last for two more months???
    I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    This will be my first PJ concert (MSG2). I'm really excited to be going. I've been driving my husband crazy since getting the tickets. I was one of the lucky few New Yorkers to get in on the pre-sale. Definitely can't wait until June!

    I'm going to 8 shows in June. It's going to be amazing. If PJ plans on doing some shows on the West Coast, I will definitely be a taking a trip out there, as well. You only live once, and since the band gives me so much pleasure, it's well worth it.

    Ahhhh, but the waiting continues

    Well, to be honest, either MSG has to be #1, because I'm a NYer, and there's nothing like the Garden.

    I'm not sure I can pick any others. I'm pretty much equally excited about all the rest, although the Mansfield ones might work out nicely, because my brother owns a house on Cape Cod. Hopefully, I'll be able to stay there after Hartford..

    Don't underestimate the Hartford show. I think you could very well see a Grand Rapids '06-type setlist at this show, not in length but in terms of gems not played in some time.

    I am also of the thought Hartford will be a sleeper show - like Calgary '05 - based on location alone (after MSG and before Boston) you don't think it will be the greatest, but I have a theory on this particular show...

    East Troy '00 was very cold = short set. The return to East Troy '03 = great show.

    Albany '03 was the 2nd of a 3 night string. Ed was sick. The set was very short, by their standards. The return to Albany in '06 = great show.

    Hartford '06 not as cold as East Troy '00, but cold and ugly enough for Ed to mention it. Short set. Return in '08 = ?
