8/23 PHILLY - GIDDY UP!

[peafunk31]

I really don't believe that there was any "roofying" going on. It's just odd that there were quite a few of us that experienced the same thing. It could have been pit heat coupled with too many strong brews & not drinking enough water. I dunno. It just didn't feel like it was pure drunkeness. I've never felt like that. Plus if I were that drunk, I shoulda felt like hell the next day. I honestly felt OK.

Meh, whatever happened, happened. I just got to be a little more careful come Tuesday. I'm sure as hell not going to let it dampen my tailgating participation on Tues. Only this time around I'm going light beer stylee. I may have to whiz 30 times before the show but I can live with that

I also kind of blacked out about an hour or so after going into MPP, but I chalked that up to being hammered and not a roofie colada. I seriously doubt this roofie conspiracy, I think it was just a non-stop flow of booze in the lot for many.

This is why I employ the practice of alternating each beer/drink with a water. That's why you see me drinking Coors in a lot of the Red Rocks pictures. Hydrate, people!

there's rules, people!  ;D

I'm kinda on the fence for this one... waiting on a friend to decide if he wants to go... After the MPP show I need some more Jacket!!

On a side note... if you get to the venue early enough you might be able to wander across the street for a methadone dose at the clinic... My buddy has to play "avoid the tweaker" as he drives by there heading into work.  :D

FYI - The Phils are in town that night... be sure to give yourself plenty of time on the Surekill.

Oh you have got to be KIDDING! Ugh.

Thanks ynwa...if you can snag one, that'd be great, but don't stress yourself out. I should hold back on the poster buying anyway... :-P

I totally agree with you on this one, i went to MPP but the traffic was so bad we didn't even get any time to tailgate, got in town checked into the sheraton, got to the room then walked to the venue, hit the merch table then had a smoke on the grass b4 we headed down to the pit section.  As soon as we walked down in the guys started their set. 

Hope to make it to this show and have enough time to meet some of you fine people if that's cool with you all?

i am pumped you guys.
unfortunately my friend who was supposed to make the trip with me is stuck in california. don't really know too many ppl willing to travel a few hours for a band they never heard of. so unless somethign happens it looks like i will have 1 extra pit ticket for the show.

You better!

I just got official word that ynwa has graciously offered me her extra PIT ticket (2nd row center!) ....can't wait...haven't seen them in Philly since 2008.

[AlbertNiles]

I'm still on the hunt for good seats and willing to pay a little extra!  My cousin just moved to NYC and I want to initiate him into the House of MMJ!!

[Sweet Nothing]

Believe i also posted that i was looking for some pit tickets also, two to be exact but also made a thread on the buy/sell/trade tickets but have not heard back from anyone one yet about it.  If someone has two pit tickets or some seats that are in orch A center and can't make the trip please let me know.  It would be greatly appreciated cause just seeing them once this tour was not enough! 

Thanks ahead of time for any help in this matter!!

it's you & me, kid!  god help anyone around us :-X

[FiddleCastro]

I'm looking for a single ticket!

[ynwa]

i'll keep my eyes & ears peeled for any "spares". 

has anyone heard anything on whether people who bought thru roll call & can't attend are able to transfer their tix to someone else?  i know there was some chatter about whether or not it could be done.  i AM going to this show & do NOT have any extras (wish i could help out) merely wondering if this question was ever answered.

Exactly my practice also, crispy! In fact at RR I was doing two waters for every drink .Otherwise I might not have made it through the show, with our tailgate starting at 1:00!!

Wise practice indeed, and takes years of practice to master. ;)

[JerseyDan]

Regardless - Philly will be great and I will try to stay upright this time.  Esp. since Jersey Dan will not be in the lot but instead spinning records inside.

actually my DJ set was cutoff in lue of XPN broadcasting from the lobby, no harm-no foul. the gf & i are thinking maybe we should do a wine party this time! SANGRIA & CALIMOCHOS!
