    So, I decided this weekend to go back and listen to the Mansfield Experiment. Got to day 2 this morning on the way to work, and with the first chords a wave of joy comes over me (And on a Monday no less). I've been to plenty of shows. A few "historic" ones. Many great, great ones.....

    But with the first notes of Release, the whole feeling came rushing back like nothing I've ever experienced before. And it wouldn't go away. And this wasn't even the actual show. "Just another" that happened to start the same way...

    AV is stamped on my heart and engrained in my brain. :ugeek:
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    enough said....the one was there knows....the first notes of release was like seeing the last 20 years as a movie trailer passing in front of me...unique feeling....
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    It's pretty tough to put into words what that opening felt like. I was watching some youtube vids of Release this weekend with my buddy who I went to PJ20 with, and after the end of one of the videos he turned and looked at me and put out his forearm and said, "Check that out....goose bumps bro."

    SO true - I even get goosebumps just reading this. Will never forget how I felt in the second I realized they were going to play Release. Man, I really wish I could go back and have that experience again.

    I agree. Plus with Eddie's injury you'd think they might wait and see how he's doing in Europe first before announcing anything else. We'd never hear the end of the complaining if they announced Labor Day weekend shows and then had to cancel ;)

    We just all need to remind each other to cancel our hotel reservations if this doesn't happen...i'd probably drive again, so no flights to worry about :)

    Ugh, I hope not. Sucks, there's some really cool shows(Firefly) coming close to me but I've been scared to pull the trigger for fear something will be announced. Just interested, what have the room rates been going for?? I camped last year which was cool but would'nt mind a room if I could schwing it.
