  • The SE is not the NE, doesn't matter. They still sell out in the SE. Why neglect an entire region of the country?

    I agree.

    You had a better time traveling outside of the SE?

    had a better time seeing PJ outside the southeast, not necessarily a better time traveling.

    I think we will get the next tour swing.We are due no doubt.I disagree with anyone who thinks we don't sell out or are in some way milder or not as good a crowd/fan base.Some of the best shows I've ever been to have been in the South.
    Last-12- I would def put NO in the south.If I get humidity,swamps and Grits and shrimp for breakfast then I'm in the south.In my opinion it's everything from Galveston up to Kentucky and the Mason-Dixon Line over through VA and down.

    agree with drank...
    had a great time in Cinci(not just at the show) and almost every other city I see them in.
    yeah I would love them to play NC more but I know it ain't happening.

    I am trying to figure out which band member doesn't like to tour here.
    we know it's not ED as he has played multiple solo shows here.....
    OR is it just his masterplan to starve the South of PJ in order to create demand for his solo shows. >:)

    btw.... WORD UP DRANK!!!

    Charlotte was a proper show. And only 2.5 hours from me. Like I said, had I been picked in the cincy lottery, I would've been there. In a heart beat.

    They don't seem to mount many all encompassing tours anymore. I think that's the main deal. I think when they get the itch to tour, they like playing the west coast and northeast, so that's where they go. I don't know for sure, obviously, but I doubt things like, "Say, we haven't been to the southeast in a while" ever comes up in the conversation.
    everybody wants the most they can possibly get
    for the least they could possibly do
