    Thanks for calling us "idiots". A very astute statement.

    I took it as boycott idiots instead of boycotting Indiana. I hope that was the intention.
  • There's no need to boycott a state with such good people that like a band that plays bad ass music. Bring pj back to indiana

    I don't see it happening to begin with and certainly not after their shitty law. I think PJ is past the point where they would open for the Stones. Been there done that. Just based on how short they've gotten to doing their own touring, I don't think they would open for anyone at this point unless it was a house of blues charity show etc. But not to draw more people to a 100,000 person show or whatever it is. Could be wrong of course.

    Boycott idiots. The law has been changed. Don't blame people of the state blame the ignorant governor

    Phoenix was scheduled and then boycotted during the backspacer tour over the anti illegal immigration law passed by Arizona. It was a bad law that tried to require legal immigrants to have to carry their papers at all times or it would be a crime. It also was going to make it legal for the cops to pull over or stop an hispanic person just because they had brown skin. Luckily the supreme court stopped most of it. Point is don't put it past them to boycott. We did get the show in 2013 so hopefully another area doesn't lose a show over a stupid law PJ fans had nothing to do with.

    I don't remember ever hearing that Phoenix was scheduled before Arrested for Driving While Brown law passed.

    My poor state....
    Unfortunately, the AZ legislature has an annual ritual of creating laws that lead to good live music passing on Phoenix and Tucson stops.
    I hadn't heard of a canceled 09 Phoenix stop, either.

    From the looks of it, they are boycotting the US this year.

    But if you want to boycott a state and judge a large population harshly and be intolerant, go ahead. If only there was a law put in place that could do that ...
