    They need to re-name the Camden venue. Susquehanna Bank Center doesn't work.
    well said.

    i hope. and why the hell are so many of these shows during the week??? NOTHING is doing on worthwhile in mansfield that weekend. Hartford on a friday night will be nothing but fucking chaos. Chaos. And all the Hartford haters will have plenty to hate. :D Love it!

    I would normally go to the Hartford show since it is a Friday night but I have no desire to return to Hartford ever again.

    "Stuff White People Like"

    #18 Awareness
    January 23, 2008 by clander

    An interesting fact about white people is that they firmly believe that all of the world’s problems can be solved through “awareness.” Meaning the process of making other people aware of problems, and then magically someone else like the government will fix it.

    This belief allows them to feel that sweet self-satisfaction without actually having to solve anything or face any difficult challenges. Because, the only challenge of raising awareness is people not being aware. In a worst case scenario, if you fail someone doesn’t know about the problem. End of story.

    What makes this even more appealing for white people is that you can raise “awareness” through expensive dinners, parties, marathons, selling t-shirts, fashion shows, concerts, eating at restaurants and bracelets. In other words, white people just have to keep doing stuff they like, EXCEPT now they can feel better about making a difference.

    Raising awareness is also awesome because once you raise awareness to an acceptable, aribtrary level, you can just back off and say “Bam! did my part. Now it’s your turn. Fix it.”

    So to summarize - you get all the benefits of helping (self satisfaction, telling other people) but no need for difficult decisions or the ensuing criticism (how do you criticize awareness?). Once again, white people find a way to score that sweet double victory.

    Popular things to be aware of: The Environment, Diseases like Cancer and AIDS, Africa, Poverty, Anorexia, Homophobia, Midde School Field Hockey/Lacrosse teams, Drug Rehab, and political prisoners.
    Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?

    I like this part the best... reminds me of people I know.... :)

    Wondering what the chances are of these "2nd shows" having 10C tickets..... and I'm damn tempted to hit the first MSG but I have to be on the road by 7AM on the 25th.

    Social awareness does not equal political activism!

    5/23/2011- An utter embarrassment... ticketing failures too many to list.
