probably just saved you a bunch of moving money

you should know it's all about seeing it in person.

uhaul rented.

how far of a drive is that?

only 31 hours why?

Lots of bad takes ITT

Lottery > taking a day off work to hit F5

Anticipation of finding where your seats are when you pick them up at will call is also awesome.

seems like you'd rather buy an airline ticket for a concert than press your luck and fly standby, but that's just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

CopperTom appreciation post:

I ventured over to the Pit to read their 2018 tour rumor thread. I had to wade through about a thousand “OMG August 10 is my 40th birthday!” posts, so I appreciate CT for getting straight to the point here.

Good point!

BTW, CT's birthday is May 17th. Be sure to post it in the Pit.

Play All or None for my birthday!

Something I would absolutely love to see is during a back-to-back set in the same city, the band goes out of its way to get weird on one of the setlists. Deep cuts only, no hits like Alive or Betterman. If I could only pick one to attend I'd take the weird setlist for sure. Let the n00bs attend the classic show.

One can dream...

they'll never do that at a stadium show. they'll feel like they're disappointing too many casual fans.

They wouldn’t be wrong. As much as we all want to hear deep cuts, I notice at shows that most of the crowd outside of the pit is dead until they play the hits.

totes agree

Then do it at the Showbox

While it would make for a great bootleg, being with the kind of people a show like that would attract would be a living hell.
