    Aside from a major lyric flub on Life Wasted, Ed was pretty much dead on the whole night!

    That was hilarious. It looked like Ed came in too early.


    Oh, and thanks 10C!

    My number isn't great - high 200's, but our seats were fantastic. Four rows up on the side, 15 seats out from the stage.

    And the 10Clubbers around us were great folks.

    Cheers!

    This was probably in the top 5 PJ shows I have seen.

    I thought West Palm was an ok show, but Tampa was a great show.

    The pre-show get togethers were great, meeting new PJ fans was awesome, and I was thrilled to have back to back shows with PJ in Florida again! Maybe next time we won't have to wait five years...

    To top it all off, I snatched an EV guitar pick!!!

    For those keeping track - 10C # 141xxx, 11th row on Mikes side.

    Anyone know why Eddie singled out Bradenton, FL before going into Small Town? Is there some history there?

    Looks like a real good show!

    No Ed pre-set? I'll be slightly bummed if he doesn't do them this tour, although it takes the pressure off of getting to the venue early.

    my friend who lives here in florida informed me that it is a retirement community.

    Just a guess, but I believe his girlfriend/wife, not sure if they are married, attended Manatee High School in Bradenton for a short time.

    Well, I'm 28 and I happen to live in Bradenton, so that's not necessarily true :). But I was wondering if Eddie or someone else in PJ had some kind of connection. I just thought it was interesting that he knew about it.

    It was after his discussion about Tampa/St.Pete and I think he just picked Bradenton because it's a nearby "small town". Not really, but compared to it's neighbors it is.

    Was Porch played at full speed, or with a slow beginning?

    Slow beginning....Ed alone.

    Then the band jumped in and it kicked ass.

    The funniest part was that he clearly looked to the front row for help when he forgot the words and I guess none of the people he looked at knew the words either, cause he couldn't jump in until the second verse :)

    Well....in West Palm he forgot the words to Alive. It is entertaining to watch his reaction when he forgets lyrics...

    I wasn't there, but I have been to quite a few shows where he probably just finds out what a small town is around and uses it.

    I am not a big poster guy, but that is a cool poster. I like the similarity to Led Zep's "Presence", the avocado, and the prism. Cool.

    If he knew how good last night's show really was he WOULD be kicking himself.
