just under 3 weeks

I hope they'll be selling beer at this. The Charlotte sports scene has a pretty good variety of beers on tap at their venues. The Panthers serve Ranger on tap and had a few others I remember being impressed with. Hopefully the arena will have the same selection.

Do you turn into a WOO-boy when you get a few drinks in you, Ruddo?

Absolutely NOT. Other things I hate at concerts, but not limited to:

couples who won't let go of each other
air drummers
beer spillers
frat boys who imitate EV as if he sounds like the Creed lead singer
loud talkers during songs
loud sing alongers
40 year old guys wearing sleeveless shirts

40 year old guys wearing sleeveless shirts

except for this guy, obviously

i do drum a little but its usually on my legs, or the railing if i have one in front of me. and i do sing along probably a little too loud at some points, but thats about all

[E.H. Ruddock]

No I mean the guy who plays air drums behind me with his hands up in the air and inevitably always hits me.

New songs I want to hear at this show:

Pendulum
Infalliable
Yellow Moon
Sirens (just for chud)
My Father's Son

New songs they will actually play at this show:

MYM
Lightning Bolt
Future Days
Let the Records Play (it is a lock they play this in the South)
Sleeping By Myself

I don't think your chances for Pendulum are good, but maybe they want to open with that creepy beginning.

First song of the tour! Pittsburgh opener! I want recognition!!!

Ruddo ... full disclosure ... I sent Pearl Jam a postcard asking them to open with Last Exit in Charlotte. It's going to happen. I can't remember if you wanted Go or Why Go as an opener, but you're fucked.

It was Go. And I have it on good authority that Go is happening. Post card. What is this, amateur hour?

Postcards are the tits!!! They're like a little piece of artwork you can carry around with you. You can tack it up on the tour bus to remind yourself that YOU HAVE TO OPEN WITH FUCKING LAST EXIT IN THE CAROLINAS!

I do the hand motions and the Vedder sway/bounce. I'll mouth the words but usually don't sing them out loud.

Let's get these NY shows out of the way so we can start talking (again) about the only show that really matters on the first leg of the tour.

i dont know if i want to see somehting crazy show up at these next few shows and then hope they use the charlotte show as a best of everything they played on the whole leg, or if i dont want to see anything crazy get played because they may only play some songs once on the leg and i want them at my shows

No show since Wrigley has as many posts!

I've decided that I want to hear Soon Forget. I missed the 2003 tour, so I've never heard it live. Ed could break out the uke for Sleeping By Myself and follow it up with Soon Forget.

I should figure out my bucket list. I have no idea what's on it.

Get Right should be number one, yo.

Get Right is an automatic skip whenever Riot Act is on. Which is rare in and of itself.

Hard to Imagine would be nice.
