Hi,
I've met many of you last year, when after waiting 15 years to see PJ (very impatiently in the previous 5..keeping my membership in vain), The Astoria happened!
First show, small venue, 30mn cycle ride from home...what more can you ask for?!
Following the ecstasy/Orgasm that was that gig, I booked myself on 6 dates.. then added 1 before it started..then after 3 shows, all hell broke loose and I gave up the reminding of my life (for that month at least) to Pearl Jam and ended up in Athens with 16 shows under my belt, making up for lost time! but still have not heard Red Mosquito!!!
This year, I'm wiser...I know there's no way I could stand seeing a Marseille-like setlist on the net and know I could have been there! (only reason I wasn't a big wreck then is because I was at my cousin's wedding that day so never would have made it anyway).
So in that spirit and in order to save money by planning instead of adding last minute flights/hotel/tickets... I'm doing it all :D
afaik, I'm the only one so far (not sure Babs is doing Lisbon/Madrid, so maybe 2 of us).
but I'm obviously most looking forward to London:
it's my home show, and EVERYONE is here! all the people I physically met last year, and all the people I met on the boards, and many more. The most international show ever!
I said it last year: next London show is going to be the mother of all party...but I had no idea that they'd do us the whole 10c floor!!! so now I'm out of superlatives.
This is one for the history books guys and we will all be there :D ...can't wait to (re-)meet you all!
PJ is just bonus ;-)
