Mandatory Tour Chatter

I'll now go back to not commenting on the issue.

Yeah, we better talk about the Mandatory Tour

I missed some words there. It was supposed to be as side from TMBJON, nobody has had more negative interactions with the guy than me. I know there's been many negative interactions, but it got pretty nasty between Jeremy and I, but he did contribute some positive things to the forum. Does that out weigh the negative? Not at all, but he was very thorough in his reviews

I remember he once made fun of me when I said I was thinking of going to an NYC show, as it was "pretty far from LA." I laughed as he really should be the last person pointing that out.

He's a damn good guy. I talked to him quite a bit in Toronto and Verona and got to know him a bit. No doubt, like everyone else he has some tweak's but above all else he is a dedicated fan which is something I respect. I will say tour chasing to that extent is highly excessive considering it is the same set throughout a tour and I wouldn't want Al and the guys to actually get annoyed by my presence but Steve seems to love talking with him and he has some quite interesting things to say. There are a few people who go to all of my bands shows and I find their questions and presence slightly annoying, but I'd never tell them this stuff because support is key! All in all, great lad, own opinions, little overzealous, do miss his reviews and was invited to his blog thing but I just don't use facebook enough.

Here are some photos from the 6/23/15 Newark, OH show: https://imgur.com/a/bmKnN" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Cool shots! Not much Jim but looks like a pretty quaint little theatre.

[marcusb]

Unfortunately, where we were seated, it was hard to get Jim into the shots. And Bermuda was behind the speaker stack. Thank goodness for the unplugged bit!

Hate when that happens, nobody should be shielded enough so anybody in attendance can't see them.

Something that I noticed at the first show which I haven't seen anyone mention since: Al is standing directly behind a fan for the entire show, so his hair is always blowing around all crazy.
