    We're gonna have to build an addition for all of you image

    But that's alright! It's gonna be so cool!

    Who wants to launch the kickstarter fund for the addition to Cav and Leeze's house?

    Hahaha, we're in for that!

    And yes, we have a cemetery right behind the house. Quiet neighbours, nothing better than that :D

    Anyone know where to buy fireworks in Detroit?
    American fireworks are always better than the crap we get in Ontario.

    No love for Detroit in a LONG time. EV had to be dragged to Detroit by Chris C to play a solo show. Wonder what happened that made PJ and EV want to diss Detroit every tour.

    Congratulations Detroit you have now got your Love :P

    For those dissing Detroit and don't know what to do before or after the show, just take your asses to Greektown, you'll be fine and have a ball. Also, if you Americans want to go over to Windsor, you MUST have a PASSPORT!

    What else aside from Greektown is there to see/do that's worthwhile for someone arriving ~12pm?

    Personally, I'm hoping the Robocop statue is up by then. Need a picture with that.

    Kind of blows baseball will be over (regular season). I like hitting ballparks during my trips. Hopefully the Red Wings will have a game the day after the show. No passport for me, so I'll be hitting up a sports bar to kill my time.

    You don't technically need a passport. An enhanced ID or a Nexus pass will work as well. But if you have one of those you probably go to Canada or Mexico way too much and already know this.

    Amazingly this will be my first PJ concert and my first time trying to get tix through here as i just joined last year. But how did Detroit's % get so low so quick? At one point yesterday every single other option was 98% or higher except Detroit GA which was in the 40's. I'm guessing they aren't putting that many people on the floor of the Joe?

    And don't be afraid to stay in Detroit. There are some decent areas and the city if full of museums, casinos, good food etc. And it's not like Windsor is Toronto, trust me.

    Tigers will still be in the playoffs at that point; we're World Series bound this year. Comerica is a great park
