Salaam Aleikum,

Yeah son! The official start of the tour obviously, since I'll be there. I go to school at the dubious university of Rutgers Camden, right across the river. So after I goof off in my morning class, then BS my way through an Embryology lab, me and some goons will be walking across the Ben Franklin Bridge into Center City, then taking the train down to Wachovia. I only procured the tickets a few days ago; nosebleed seats behind stage. I don't care; just glad to be there.

Clearly, Jon knows he has a lot to live up to, after the way he scarred my young adulthood with Night 2 at MSG. Will the band pull out all the stops, ala Montreal? Or will we get another mediocre affair that will cause Wrath Mania to fume for another few years? Always, Blaze of Glory, Hey God, and Brokenpromiseland. Make us proud, Jon.

Kathleen, Deb, and others who are attending... where will you be seated?

I want Always, Hey God and BPL too. Night 1 Pit 1 Row 4 Seat 13 and Night 2 217A. Row 3 Seat 8. It will be my first show there.

Well there will be several of us there so send good thoughts our way.

I'm not sure about Dave's seats but I think he's in the balcony.

I'm in section 2 on the floor both nights - rows 2 and 3 maybe? I forget.

I'm really looking forward to this one - it's been awhile :).

My god can´t bealive it, Tonight Im flyin to philly

I will be section 2 row 10

Awesome - you are going to be very close to my husband and me. Want to send me a picture so I can say hello - or I can friend you on facebook and you can see me.

I'm really hoping big for you guys, but my honest expectation is that night one will be slightly vanilla (not totally, but maybe with a rarity or something in the end) night two will be better, but I don't think either will be Montreal in the setlist department. Hope I'm wrong though.

My friend from college and I will be there on both nights. I also applied for a spot for the 3rd private concert on Wednesday (just for the hell of it). I requested Hey God and/or I Believe through the main website (I asked if they could open with this), but I don't think that will do much. This will be my first Bon Jovi experience outside of Dallas, TX...I hear these Philly shows tend to be great!

I grabbed nosebleed seats behind the stage for the second show after I received an e-mail from Wachovia early Friday morning that they were being sold for 15 bucks. Can you believe that? Last time I saw Jovi I gave Jon a huge ****ing high-five after Last Man Standing (he gave my mom his guitar pick)...I hope something similar to that occurs again! Haha!:D

Oh yeah, if any of you want to see me I will be on ESPN tonight dressed up as Lehigh University's mascot for tonight's game against Iowa State. Hah.

Don't rain on my parade damnit - It's gonna be awesome - it's Philadelphia.

Wrath Mania is awesome.

Seems to be the only one besides me wanting the return of 'Blaze Of Glory'!
:D
