    Ah...Ive been away too long..I figured I'd pop back on and see that a show was scheduled before the Europe tour ;-)

    But alas...bump time.

    Things are boring on the concert rumor front now. Ugh. Back to reality.

    Seems the Stones aren't bringing in the numbers they had anticipated.

    Bring in Pearl Jam instead! :D

    Yeah...I guess the Stones are at 45000 or 50000...pretty strong numbers if you ask me..especially since they played here a year ago. Besides...the last week will show an increase in tickets...since some will wait for weather forecasts and such. (as I would if I was going)

    Seems the Goo Goo Dolls are here in November. Not sure if I will go or not..but I do like some stuff.

    Not to mention all the university kids will be back with all their fresh student loan money. Aren't there like 3-4 universities in Halifax alone. That's probably a big reason why Kanye was added to the bill.

    As an aside, I was heading to catch the boat to Dartmouth from work and I saw at least 3 guys with Pearl Jam tour shirts on. I am guessing they were heading to the NOFX show/Punk festival in Dartmouth. Nice to see regardless. It's funny...I realized that I absolutely do not look like a Pearl Jam fan.
  • that depends on what a pearl jam fan looks like. I remember being in at the Halifax show and seeing all shapes/sizes/colors/ages of people. It was one big melting pot of people.

    we're losing steam! i've been out of commission most of the weekend due to stomach flu/food poisoning and power outages.

    need to keep up the blind faith that pj will come back.

    Yeah, I'll definately TRY. I've been looking for an excuse to go to NYC for a while now.

    ....At least that's what I'll say if that show does happen.

    since it's not looking good for PJ in 2006, i'm going to try my arse off to win the trip to Ottawa to see The Who that Fred Fm is giving away.

    it would be lovely if the boys would come back though.

    A bump from your Southern U.S. friend.............who loved Halifax and seeing Pearl Jam at the Metro Centre.
