    My other guess is Vant is reading to blind children and cleaning up Haiti

    Just checked in with Vant and he has been at the Raptor Center incubating eggs from an abandoned red tail hawk's nest while teaching English to Honduran orphans.

    Ha, that job description sounds like some PJ bait. :-)

    If Vant is hugging trees it might be enough to push us over the top for getting PJ to play in Minnesota!!!

    Stone is by far the most environmental of the band.

    We do have 10,000 lakes in MN if you want to bring PJ along for a show. :-)

    Just saw Vant on the side of 35W north bound helping an elderly, Asian couple change a flat tire. What a guy. :D

    Wow! I saw him earlier in Minneapolis save a baby in a runaway stroller heading for stairs!

    Looks like Vant's speech did the trick!

    Here's what I told them:

    And then I laughed really hard."

    Good win Twins and Gophs.

    This winter is a beast. Through it all we have consistently posted for PJ to play in MN.

    I hope you have enough food in your house (laughs). It should melt pretty soon from what I hear.

    Maybe the reason the midwest gets skipped over as of late is because the band is worried about selling out larger arenas? What would everyone think about the band playing smaller venues like they did in MIssoula a couple of years back. I think college basketball arenas would be cool. It obviously would make it harder to get seats. What's everyone think?

    If that is a concern for the band, and I've said it before, "You can't grow something you don't water." Maybe they should have skipped one of the 63 Philly shows they've done over the last six years and given us one or two of them.

    With that said, PJ would have NO PROBLEM selling out a show in Mpls/St. Paul. The Current, 93X and KTWIN all play PJ regularly.
