    Well I'm happy with the Philly date as long as I get tix!

    Newch, I really hope you get a show and get to see them

    I saw them back in 2007 and have been so exicted to see them again on this tour!
    If there isn't a CT date, I might just go up to Boston and find a couple friends to go if they want to.

    Or go solo, if you feel comfortable doing that.

    I usually go to shows by myself and I always have a blast but for this show I actually have a couple friends who want to go too.

    Phila. tickets most likely will not be on Ticketmaster, the Wells Fargo Center does their own ticketing:

    I prefer their system to Ticketmaster/Live Nation...I always have better luck with tickets

    Of course, the fast internet connection at work helps to :lol:

    I would go alone but I wouldn't want to drive to and from Boston alone. Unless I get myself a Dunkin Donuts coffee to drink on the way home.

    In case it hasn't already been mentioned, iTunes are broadcasting the Foo Fighters/Jimmy Eat World show from London tonight, it starts in 25 mins (that's 8 o'clock UK time) - just click the banner on iTunes. Not sure if it's limited to UK only viewing, in that case you could maybe try changing the country setting in your iTunes........

    Ok. I was just watching a little bit of their set and I'm not liking the live feed. The picture keeps skipping while you can hear audio perfectly.

    For now on iTunes, let YouTube handle festival live broadcasts because yours sucks. The live feed is ruining the experience for me.

    Maybe because you're over the pond? It is absolutely fine for me, streaming fine.
    I have watched a number of the iTunes webcasts this year (not lucky enough to win tix this year :( ) I do watch it in iTunes if that makes a difference.

    I'm across the pond as well, and it's fine. Watching on my MacBook Pro in iTunes. Not a single problem yet.

    Video and Audio are coming in fine here in Lexington, KY. Pretender sounds 10x better in person though, I think they were having mixing issues towards the beginning of the song. Any one know how long they are playing for?

    Grohl just said they'll be in Cincinnati. Did he get confused with Columbus or are they really coming to Cincy??? Better be coming to Cincy.
