    have been a fan forever but prior to last year had only seen them twice since they rarely play in tx. attended 3 shows last year and had no idea that their fanbase is so...cult like. people lining up hours before the show to buy the poster/tshirt for that specific city. people camped out all night to be first in line...and then there's some sort of weird controversial wristband thing they do to save their place. all of the people around us at the shows had seen them 25+ times. it was very reminiscent of deadheads, except rich old people and no hippies. honestly it was very much a turnoff but i'm seeing them twice more this year so maybe they've got me right where they want me. the weird holier than thou undertones of all of it was pretty terrible. 

    the only thing i don't love about the band and traveling around to see them is a large percentage of their fans.  i've met some cool people over the years but many are like you're saying.  my biggest problem is how many only listen to PJ. i roll my eyes at the ridiculous discussions about setlists and their white whale tunes.  if i'm taking a first timer i always warn them of what they're walking into.

    Franklin didn't really extend its hours.  Still a serve-til-you're-out venture rather than attempting to support true dining room hours.

     

    true but they upped their output a ton and the quality didn't suffer.

  3. Agreed. Eddie even said they have one or 2 more for sure. Stone said he’d go back in the studio right now with Watt. 
     

    Nineteen days until show 33 for me!

    This is a horrible trial schedule. It is essentially half-days and partial weeks. Gross. 

    Keeps him in court longer. Fine by me.

  5. Good Broken Record episode with Jeff and Stone. 

    the whole band did stern yesterday and played Running and Scared of Fear. Both sounded better live as I expected.
