5 years goes by so fast...hands down 1 of my favorite concerts I've ever attended.
It seems like yesterday I was waiting and fighting tooth and nail with scalpers for over 8 hours to get a pair. I think i got 1 our of like 15-20 pairs they release via the cancellation line that wrapped around the block. My wife was ready to kill me but she quickly forgave me after the show.
Cheers to such a great night and we can only hope for more like this 1.
I haven't been to a ton of PJ shows, but I was there for this one! Traveled a long way for it. It's still probably my favorite show that I attended. Hearing slow Lukin live was awesome. Doesn't seem like its already been five years. Time flies for sure. I listen to the boot all the time.

Slow Lukin gives me chills every time I hear it. It was so good that I wish and don't wish at the same that they play it again. I don't know what it is about this version but it is one of the best songs live by PJ that I have ever heard l(and I have been to 26 shows). Great night...
Seems a lot of cool people from the boards were there and somehow I didn't get to meet all of you.
i didn't meet anyone. Me and my friend drove from West Chester, PA to New York, Hit traffic around the Lincoln Tunnel. Then by the time we found parking and got to our seats. No more than two minutes after we sat down PJ hit the stage. I wanted to see Band of Horses so that part sucked, i didn't even see the poster til i got home which was real late.
Hunger Strike was the highlight for me. Slow Lukin, Betterman, and Breath were also highlights.
