Let's get a headcount.

I've got a three day pass, probably going all three days. Especially for The Flaming Lips.

We're out of town (at the New Jersey shore!) through mid-late Saturday, but I may try to go to Sunday's shows if my scalper negotiation skills are feeling strong. (...though it looks like some of the better stuff is on Fri/Sat)

You are presumably busy assembling your Southside Johnny/Bon Jovi/Dennis Madalone mix for seaside listening pleasure?

But of course! The South Jersey/Philly 80's contingent also can claim Cinderella and Tommy Conwell as members...

random: I went to a bayside restaurant about 10 years ago (in Ocean City? Ventnor? Margate?) with my family and a big sign there indicated that, later that week, the sunroom was playing host to Jodi Bon Jovi, overlooked sis to the steel horse rider.

a wild guess: she looked like her brother but not as pretty.

i wonder if their folks changed the spelling of their last name too, just to get better lockers at the beach club . . .
