I thought it was weird that the first song he played (2/17/05) was "Time Loves a Hero". The crowd seemed a bit confused. To my knowledge, he never played it again.

He closed the Nissan show with a Dave Matthews song that few people knew/recognized. Weird, man, weird.

(I'm still not "over" that yet)

played two shows in Philly which he hasn't done in about 5 years. Also was a swtich to play across the river at Citizen's Bank park instead of Camden......AND the show was at the end of the summer instead of June. .... but the weirdest thing was that the ticket prices doubled and in some cases tripled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, but it was worth it to not be in Jersey.

I agree......3 years ago I payed $12 dollars for a ticket for not so bad of a seat on the lawn in Irvine only to pay $175 this year in Vegas.......

Vegas tickets have always been more expensive than the other venues. The first time I saw JB in Vegas 5 years ago the top price was $150.

No kidding...the Cubs might just be cursed forever now.......

(and Jimmy can't come back and fix it next year because the agreement said no 2006 shows in Wrigley).

The Cincinnati migrating pink bobblies was hilarious!! The only time he's played ASPOL that I know of was on the Today Show late last year when the book was released (nice song).

The only other weird thing I can think of was the decline in senior moments towards the end of the tour...rumor has it a teleprompter made it on stage (something he'd said he'd never do)...but as long as he keeps putting on good shows, so what and more power to him!

You know I didn't even think about that one.... Maybe he should make plans to play US Cellular Field
