    Couldn't have said it better myself! On a side note...I usually go into a show hoping for three songs that I haven't seen live yet. For instance, at the VB show I'm hoping to hear...

    1. marker in the sand
    2. faithful
    3. inside job

    Will be MONEY if they play all three, but even 2 would be solid! Thoughts?

    I haven't seen Faithfull either, and am dying to!

    I've seen Marker and Inside Job a few times, but I wouldn't mind seeing both again, although I love Marker in the Sand much more.

    swallowedwords,

    I noticed your going to 10 shows. DAMN SON! That's more than I've been to in total! You better come away with some hardware (i.e., Ev pics, drumsticks, setlist sheets)!

    LOL, yes, I'm taking full advantage of this tour, and I'm so incredibly excited. Who knows, maybe Matt will throw me a snare drum or a cymbal. :)

    That would surely be cool. Are you going to the BW3s meet-up/pre-game beforehand?

    Where is this place? I'd love to go. All I know is that I'm staying at the Holiday Inn on Atlantic St. I'm not familiar with VA Beach at all. I'm a Yankee :)

    The pre-party will be held at BW3s (stands for Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck) right across from the amphitheater in the shopping center at the corner of Dam Neck Rd and Princess Anne Rd. I plan on getting there aroun 5:30 or so. Will try and get a few tables for people. Looking forward to meeting you guys!

    Is anybody from the Va Beach/Va area going to the camden shows? I will be taking the train to Philly and staying at the Hyatt by the water. Any info on what to do Pre and Post show or about past experiences there would be appreciated.
  • Anyone know if there is any type of shuttle going from the beach to the ampitheather. We are staying at the Ramada Limited on the beach, which is about twelve miles away.

    This will be my first PJ show.

    By the way, I think weck is some type of bread. We had a BW3's in Blacksburg when I was in college and that was the explaination I got from the bartender when I asked.

    We're staying at a hotel on the beach too - I haven't heard of a shuttle - we're just planning on driving actually..
