The only time I was ever in Texas was for pj in Dallas and while it was an interesting setlist, pointed lecturing from the stage aside, I wouldn’t be running back to that town for anything.
Bring on Houston or Austin and I’m there.

My favorites were people who bought merch early in the week, before the shows, and were walking around in their new merch. When two would come across each other:
1- “hey, PJ shirt huh? Are you going to the shows?”
2- “yeah, can’t wait”
1- “ one or both shows?”
2- “both!!!!”
1- “ yeah me too, are you GA?”
2- “ yeah!!!”
1- “me too.... well, have a great show”
Repeat 1000 times. I don’t get it, and quite frankly embarrassed to be in a city with so much culture and so much to do than to spend my entire days talking about PJ and standing out as a tourist. Then I see the Pit has a T-shirt planning thread for Chicago:

Not to mention all the people that need to wear PJ shirts and gear to the concert.

I drove up for the show Friday, and stayed around Seattle on Saturday. I couldn't believe how many people were wearing PJ shirts/hats.
Even worse was the amount of shirts at the show. The worst were either the personalized Mariners/Cubs jerseys or these things:

Hey me too!
I was gonna ask the same thing... I was there..
The WMD joke was lame, but Bush did live there, which is most likely why the band didn't return afterwards for a decade! All the Dallas shows 1993 through 2003 were very memorable and had great crowds...
There's really no reason to like big D, though!

I was at this show too. My third. I hadn't heard Alive live yet, and bam! Opener. That was cool.
