My record is three. Hopefully will break it in ‘25 with four

Miami would have been the whole family flying/staying/eating/doing shit. It would have been ?$4-$5k. Pitt will be a road trip (about $100 in gas for the Camry), tickets, and a few nights of hotel for my youngest son and me. We did this trip 2 summers ago for Metallica. All this to say, Peeps and Twat potentially set to meet.

Bummed about the lack of a D.C. / NOVA date as well, and feel for the Ohio, Detroit, Toronto and Montreal folks who were hoping for shows. Maybe we still get Summer dates to cross some of those off the list?

I know the guys, especially Eddie, take lots of notes about the venues and figure that if they don't like the acoustics, venue folks, crowd, ticket sales, etc. it may make it less likely for a return.

Ended up putting in for Nashville, which I've not been to, and am excited for, and decided to go to try for Pittsburgh over Raleigh since they sometimes bust out surprises to close legs. My plan for both cities is to do two hotel nights, have my bags held, get them post show and hit the airport / car and head home avoiding the cost of a 3rd hotel night. Anyone else do this?

There aren’t going to be flights after a show until morning. I did this once. Flew to St. Louis day of, went to a Cardinals game and then the show. My flight was early so I probably spent 5 hours in the airport. It was pretty miserable, to be honest. I’d just get a third night.

I drove to Vegas (from LA) with a couple buddies in our early 20’s once for one night. We slept in the car. That sucked so bad.

Gonna finally take my kid to one of these things. I grew up in Pittsburgh, so this is also an excuse to get back there and show him my childhood sites and such.

So we find out tomorrow afternoon if we got tickets, yeah?

Also, opening acts are:

For Florida and Atlanta: Dead Pioneers

All other shows: Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers
