[highlight]I was thinking Boston because it's on a Saturday :o[/highlight]

So which Petty show will you be at?

--FiddleCastro -- So much fun hanging with you and enjoying pizza on the River Walk.  So encouraged to see a young man like yourself appreciating some good music!!!  You are wise beyond your years to be sure!  I think we will both be at the Aug 24 Tom Petty show, so we will be sure to see you then.  Of course, it would be impossible to recreate the Merriweather scene -- but we wiill do our best !

I'm looking forward to it! I will sing loud and proud at the Tom Petty show! Even if I am stuck in section 4 million or so.

Hey BlueSky  --- The show at the Izod Center on August 24th.  I sure hope you can make it!

soooooo very tempting.

I know, and there's a Thursday show before it, and I have a friend who lives in Boston  :D ..don't do it, fiddle.... your money needs to go towards other things... like... food.  :D

Went for a bike ride last night, bout 8pm so right around sunset and threw on this show. Pretty much perfect timing of day, song selection/order, and all the uphills, downhills and stuff.

Started with Steam Engine - Smokin > Run Thru Reprise > Touch Me Twice - Anytime.

Was as great as I remember it, but I didnt recall all of the clapping during songs. I fucking HATE HATE HATE the clap. Either I was too drunk or too in the zone to notice during the show I guess, or both, or maybe it was just the section around the recording. Man, I cant stand the clapping, especially when bands dont stir it up.

really?  i love the clapping!  especially the un-prompted clapping.  to me it means the crowd is just totally charged up.  the clapping between songs is the crowd expressing their sheer joy & anticipation.  it's quiet, you don't know what's coming next but you are so effing psyched & you don't know what do with yourself but you're going berzerk in your brain so.... you clap.  others who are feeling the same way join in & it just becomes pure energy.  imagine being the band & hearing that sound come at you up there on the stage.  would that not give you a charge as well?    

saying that, yes, in certain contexts the clapping can be annoying.  but, for the most part, i'm all for it.  and guilty of the crime.  i'm a clapper & i just can't help it.  guess this means we probably should not hang at a show  ;D

i love that recording & listen to it frequently.  brings back so many good memories.  and how insanely good was move on up  :D  what a great night!
