To say the least, awesome.

I cant say enough about the Jacket fans. Everyone is cool as shit. Great seeing many of you all again and meeting a few new peoples.

I still cant get past that blow up during the encore. That sucks for those of you who had to deal with that dbag the entire show. I thought he just got pissed because they didnt play Dancefloors during the encore. At least security jumped in pretty quick to haul his ass outta there. I wonder if they just kick people like that out or actually take them to jail?

very late w/ my feedback here and much of what i had in mind to say has been said already.

awesome to meet and hang out with everyone!  i'm terrible with names so i won't even attempt a list...  my tailgating was cut short due to some top secret info that there was a very small window of opportunity to get in early somehow.  that didn't work out.  BUT - we decided to start the line so we would at least have a better shot @ getting rail spots.  which DID work out  :)

this was my first time on carl's side & i liked it!  a LOT.  yes, that couple was right there, making out, basically on top of us.  and some beverages did get spilled on my flops a few times.  and the jackass that got hauled out towards the end - he & his lady almost got a taste of my irish temper :-X, thank goodness for security...  BUT I HAD SUCH A BLAST ANYWAY!!!  i can't complain about being on the rail but must admit that some of the crowd shenanigans left a bad taste in my mouth.  loved the set, was soooo so happy w/ PWW and in heaven w/ IWSYS.  LOVED that they played EU as well & as always - dondante :D

a few super awesome things happened:
1) tommy totally busted me pointing at him (kinda rude of me, i know) to show lil sis that he was smiling (i love catching him smile cuz he looks so serious most of the time) - and he totally CRACKED UP!!!  i thought that was pretty cool.
2) jim definitely showed us some love over on carl's side.  he grabbed lil sis's hand at one point, and then came back over later & tapped her hand 3 times.  obviously - he was using morse code to tell her "i love you" ;)
3) i got a really great pic of jim singing right in front of me, mic in one hand... and flashing the "i love you" sign w/ the other hand.  he was right there!!!!  and tommy is all smiles in the background.  LOVE!
4) some of us waited around in hopes of getting a setlist or drumstick etc.  a roadie walked towards our section and was scanning/looking and held the setlist out to me and said "i was told to give this to you."  HO-LY SHIT!  i wish i'd processed quicker & asked who sent it out.  but as you can tell by the pic - i was super psyched to get it (and a sweaty mess).
5) i danced so hard that my calves still hurt ;D

great pics & reviews everyone!

This. I know I had a good show when my neck is sore the next day, but until like yesterday literally my neck, back, calves, tibialis anterior, and toe muscles (?!) were all sore. It was a rager.

I haven't really looked at this forum since the Terminal 5 shows but I wish I did before this show.  It seems like I was right in the middle of all you guys.  This was probably the 12th time I've been on Carl's side and definitely one of the best other than those mentioned crowd members.  Jim showed a ton of love over there and seems to love the fact there is no separation from the stage to the crowd.  I'll have to scour your pictures to see if I can find myself or the girl I was with in the background (No, we were not the make-out bandits)

Anyone here going to some of the Euro shows?

I cant lie, you may have been the fan that pumped me up the most for the show. Your energy is ridiculous!!! And I apologize for tapping your shoulder during many awesome moments, I just wanted to make sure you were seeing the same thing  ;D 8)

Aw, you're anything but a hag Ky! (nor are you antisocial) I have a couple of us that I won't post cos we look pretty silly, but they still they are good memories and make me smile!  :)
So, I do believe.....

Oh, so great to see you all again! Great pics, liz!

Val and the beer goggles!  ;D
"...it's gonna be great -- I mean me coming back with the band and playing all those hits again"

thanks a lot gang!

non-sis laura - can't wait to see yours too!  i'm pretty sure that jell-o shot sparked my dancing frenzy ---- thank you!

ky - not yet but i'll get on that asap!  and you do NOT look like a hag.  i prefer candids & these were definitely rapid fire shots, so you were only on your phone for, like, a minute.  and by a minute, i mean the 60 seconds kind.

chris - you were greatly missed!  there'd been a rumor that you might come...  do us jersey people proud @ tuscaloosa :beer:
