    Would love to see I got shit, won't tell, cropduster 
    We were supposed to have I Got Shit n1, but Ed let a fan request from the crowd switch it out. Happy for her to get that moment (super cool), but that is one I have been waiting to hear. So yes, hopefully we get it tonight! Enjoy the day

    How’s parking for the show? Any recommendation on a good spot?
    Try here.  2 minute walk.  Only the locals seemed to realize about this parking.  Took us 30 seconds to get out, across and thru the liberty bridge and tunnels

    Whoa, don’t give away the secrets….. Hah, really though, that’s a good place also along Grant street and the Oliver Avenue Garage

    Fun fact, not only is I got shit a better song, I’ve heard it less than grievance. So I wish they wouldn’t have switched, let alone considering that it was a once in lifetime opportunity to get something super rare.

    I know I thought that the first night but then I felt bad for not sharing for night 1!

    Fan fact, in agreement with I Got Shit (love the song). Wish they didn’t switch it. But I can appreciate how they did it, so it is what it is. Just hopeful they got it on for tonight

    Any last minute hotel recommendations?  Doesn't have to be next to the venue.  Could even be with a half hour west.  But just want to make sure I'm not booking in a sketchy area.  Thanks!

    We ditched the Marriott City Center and are at the AC in Canonsburg. It’s nice, safe area. That’s about half an hour from downtown. 
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Happy PJ show day!
    My feet feel rested and better than they were yesterday. 
    I promise I won't bump any song off the setlist tonight 😉. Hoping for Insignificance, World Wide Suicide, Got Some, Alone, Wash, Hard to Imagine, I am Mine.

    SpringHill Suites in Mt Lebanon. Washington Blvd if you are looking for the street. It’s in one of the richest locations in Pittsburgh and super safe. You can also hop onto the T and take you within walking distance of the arena if you don’t want to drive into the city. 

    If you do decide to drive, it’s 15 minutes max. You go through the Liberty tunnel and there is an exit for PPG.

    There’s the Wishlist Foundation event at Moonlit Burgers a block from the arena. If you are looking for a bar, the Souper Bowl is right down the street from the arena. You can get food there as well. 

    If you are in the city for the day, you can try the strip district which will have food and drinks or you can go to Station Square and take the incline up to Mt Washington. From there you will get the best view of the city as well as places to eat and drink.
