The Fire Don’t Wish Listening The Ocean Hell And Back The Edge Lonely Girl
I'm a little surprised that it's almost entirely songs from The Other Side, but I think it's a setlist that will really appeal to fans of the other bands on the tour.
Not sure on that yet, but I think it's usually around $25 for t-shirts. Hopefully someone will post that soon. The hat says $20, so I think that should be right, haha.

Shoot me now. They decided that they are going to be doing inventory 2 weeks earlier this year at my store and now it falls on the weekend of the 12th and 13th. It is mandatory that all managers work, and even though I had the time off request approved for Boston's concert, they are forcing me to work. I was able to fight with them to work 5am to 2:00pm on the 12th instead of 8 to 5, so I should be able to make the show for 5. However, they have me working 7:00am till 8:00pm on sunday. That shift is going to be hell....
Ah, that sucks! Glad you can still make the concert though. They did that with my friend as well too for the Philly show, but I'm not sure if he can make it yet.

Bummer, the foundation room is not going to be the secret for barricade at the House of Blue's in Boston this time around.
Reason being, doors open at 5, the found nation room opens at 5. Normally doors open at 6 for most shows so you have an hour to hang in the foundation room and get let in first. Because this for whatever is an earlier show, it throws that off.
Just ordered the Tonight Alive The Other Side wrist band. Hope I get it before the show. Being that Merchnow ships from only 3 hours drive away picking US Mail for shipping is usually next day=)
Bummer about the foundation room. The crowd yesterday was pretty calm, so getting to the front shouldn't be a problem... unless fans of The Used are a crazy bunch (they weren't in Poughkeepsie).
Last night's show was amazing! TA played a couple extra songs, and a ton of people were singing along, which they're always surprised by for some reason. Made me happy to see them happy. I wasn't in the pit, but Jenna saw me and yelled my name during Wasting Away and pointed the mic at me... which wasn't very effective, haha. She came out right after to say hi to everyone as well.
Super fun show. I hope Boston and Philly are just as good.

That sounds like a great time. I hope We get a couple extra shows in Boston as well=) Boston is normally always seems to be one of the cities that has the most energy when artists go on tour. But I hope it is is calm enough to make it pretty close to the front.
I bet Providence will give me a few extra songs as The Used will not be preforming at that show.
I got my Tonight Alive - The Other Side wrist band today in the mail, I figured when I ordered it at 11:00 am yesterday that It would make it here by today in time for the show, yay!
I am going with one maybe 2 friends, but I'll see if we can meet up with you in line. The right side of the stage front is my favorite place so I am going to try to get up there.
I can't remember, do they allow cameras into the House of Blues? My iPhone is like full and I'd figure I would try to bring me camera to get a couple good pictures.
Edit: Just found that the House Of Blue's Boston Policy is that No Cameras are allowed unless you have a photo / photography pass. Anyone fought bringing in a camera will have it confiscated and they will be tossed out of the venue and given no second chances.
Phones are allowed provided you record no audio or video.
Funny, I've never had a problem bringing a camera into the House of Blues. It's really more up to the artist performing, not the venue. I'll be bringing mine.
My friend Dan and I are going. Hopefully we'll see you there! I prefer the right side of the stage too.
Such an awesome weekend!!! Got to see a bunch of friends I haven't seen in a while (including Chris!). Got to talk to most of TA. I really, really needed these shows. Poughkeepsie was my favorite (best crowd), followed by Boston, and then Philly (cause we had balcony seats and were so far away). I was going through the worst post-concert depression all day Sunday, and I still had the Philly show to go. It kind of subsided by the end of the night cause we stayed and watched TBS and The Used and that, for some reason, made me feel better, but I've never had PCD that bad before. Not a good feeling.
Looks like now I'm going to Bethlehem on April 19th now too. Seriously can't even wait!
Objective for next tour: get as many TA fans to these boards to talk about meeting up at shows, especially when they're not headline shows, so we can all be in one spot and really support the band.

I like the sounds of that objective. I will help you in any way I can. The best experience is when you know other fans and hang out all together with a familiar crowd.
I also want to try to make it to more shows next time around. I am only ding two on this tour.
The more help I can get with that, the better! It really is the best part of any show, and I know there are other TA fans who would love to meet up... they just haven't found a way to organize that yet.
If the next tour is a headliner, I'll be able to make it out to a bunch of dates cause it'll be cheaper. I really hope that's the case.
