I go back to the Cville show...These guys didnt have to venture north to Va with gigs booked in NC and SC in between..kinda tells me they want to return because of the vibe from 3 years ago.Its gonna be a sweet show..sold out early..oh yeah..its gonna be on..
I have 7 shows on the docket, and this is by far the one I'm most looking forward to seeing. Ed really enjoyed Charlottesville, there's no doubt. And it is a great city, great venue, great vibe. I hope we can replicate that. I also hope they play "I Am Mine" again, since it was written in VA Beach. Maybe that can be our VA song.

I would almost guarantee we get I Am Mine in Hampton. I'm only making it to this and Raleigh, so I'm biased in saying that I really do think this will be the show of the tour given all the reasons mentioned earlier in this thread. After Charlottesville it will be nice to have consecutive kickass show in the state. I've been to 21 shows and as a fun project to count down to Hampton, on Monday (with 21 days to go) I started ranking the shows I've been to each day worst to first on my Facebook page and I'm realizing that Virginia has had some rather generic shows over the years. I mean aside from Charlottesville it's been pretty mediocre at best and I say that as a huge fan that think they can do little wrong.

This will be a memorable one for sure.

You are correct... VA/DC has just been so-so, other than C'ville. Although DC06 does have the Reaper poster, which is one of the best ever.

True. I wasn't thinking DC so much since the 2008 Verizon Center show is probably in my top 5. Really the 3 that stood out were Bristow in 2003 (another great poster though!) and 2010 and VA Beach in 2008. Honestly, I give the 2000 VA Beach show a pass because of the circumstances, but if you take "It's Ok" out of that show it was about as pedestrian as they get.

I missed 08 but made the rest... I'm in RVA so I'm frankly glad that Bristow hasn't been on the tour since 10. The venue is fine once inside, but it's the WORST place to get in/out, certainly compared to Hampton, C'ville and VA Beach.

ikiT · March 2016

VA shows rule.

mrussel1 · March 2016

The email tells you the time is soon... 3PM box.. I still think it's an 830 start. But I won't risk it.

Ten Club Box Office Opens: 3:00pm
Door Time: 6:30pm
PJ Set Time: 8:000pm
Box Office Close: 8:45pm
All times subject to change

aspoonfulweighsaton · March 2016

I would love it if they started right at 8:00. With no show the day before or the day after, I say play till midnight!

Speaking of which, anyone know if there is a curfew? I can't remember if that has already been discussed or not...

CosmoCramer · March 2016

No opening act.

mrussel1 · March 2016

What? Carbon Leaf isn't opening?? (is that too inside VA?)

tylermoore · March 2016

8:45 stage time right?? I assume anyway. Maybe Ed will do a surprise solo set before?? When's the last time that happened.

Lifted · March 2016

Been to 3 va/dc shows. One was possibly the worst pj show ive been to (bristow 2010). The other two were top 5...(dc 08 and cville 13). Jiffy lube is a horrible venue. Cant wait for the coliseum. 18 more days.

To be fair...the bristow setlist was really good. I think my ranking of the show was a result of the horrible venue and my obnoxious section that heckled eddie and walked out of the show after his wall street rant. Really killed the vibe for me.

my2hands · March 2016

DC 08 was a GREAT show...

this one coming up, not so much...

Nothing Rhymes With Woman is one of my favorite album titles of all time.

Lifted,
You work for Goldman Sachs??? j/k
that show def had a very strange vibe.

pjpjpaul · March 2016

At that show after the crowd went nuts for All Those Yesterdays Eddie kept promising to play some more "weird shit" but he never did... I will never forgive him for that...

GB281198 · March 2016

pjpjpaul · March 2016
