When I'm there it's great and I sure as hell sing along, mostly because I just love being in that PJ Concert moment and I try to let the show just take me away. I'm more referencing bootleg listening, DVD watching, YouTube, etc. I never seek out Small Town anymore. It's probably been 15 years since I intentionally sought it out.Strat wrote:PHATJ wrote:Eh...Strat wrote:PHATJ wrote:Lightning Bolt was the highlight. And I also thought Better Man was good.

You're the reason PJ doesnt come to 'soties more than once every 10 years.
You're right. Let's let the super rich guide us to utopia. They've done a wonderful job with their ever-increasing power and influence so far.Strat wrote:Has PJ ever spoken agaisnt monsanto? and also what about the other biillions of dollars Bill Gates has spent towards good causes?dprival78 wrote:Bill Gates is heavily invested in Monsanto.
