Jon admits he wants to out-do himself!

Well, someone from the South or Midwest didn't have enough balls to create the group, Brian did and he just happens to be from New York.

Why does it take balls, no one will see it anyway

I do, Erik. You may not, but I do.

NY/NJ can get them but in my opinion not every show is a garantee. Someone should tell Jon that Always and Dry County are not rare as he may think they are.

Well....if you're in the Southern USA, those are still rare! Atlanta and Orlando had what, identical sets??

Let's face it -- Charlotte didn't get the four band members out on the circle. It was the only show I know of where that didn't happen (until Richie was not present during May). Yes, I'm "b*tchin" about it.

I love to see this band live... I really do. I went to NJ in 2006 and was able to hear "These Days" and "Wild is the Wind" --- never have I PERSONALLY heard either of those in the south. Furthermore, I went to Bristow/DC in 2003 and got to hear "something to believe in" and "never say goodbye." -- again, I've never heard either of those in the South. I'm not wanting to make this about the "South" per se --- SO --- yes, go to Europe and mix it up like they do -- it's VERY noticeable! I"m very happy for the European fans though -- don't get me wrong.

After what we got during May and seeing what Europe started getting from the first show on, this just rubs salt in the wound. Even if you think you have just a handful of diehards in the U.S. (which isn't true, of course), why would you want to slap them in the face? Talk about poor public relations from our CEO . . . I mean frontman.

Yet none of them did.

I wouldn't say it took balls...lmfao

Someone who thought of it first just happens to be in NY. That's all. There's no need to make that a competition, about where the person is from who created the group.

I wasn't trying to, the poster got on me for starting the group.
