I live in CT so it was only about a 2 hour drive. Not too bad. At one point Marcia was up on the balcony, watching the signing table, and the crowd saw her and started screaming for her. She sort of waved and smiled sheepishly. It was kinda adorable. I kept thinking how weird it must be for her to have a bit of internet celebrity at this stage in her life. She probably never imagined a bunch of young people would be cheering for her at a rock club in her 60's.

Were you the STR8 Bros looking for other STR8 bros people? I saw three people wearing those shirts on the street before the show...

I came down from southern NH, and my buddy flew in from Chicago the same day as the show. Poor dude had a busy day. Flew from Chicago to Boston, drove from Boston to south-central NH, from NH back down to Sully Sq station, got halfway there on the train and realized we forgot our tix where we parked. Had to walk about a mile to get to a station that could get us back, and finally rolled into the show around 8:30. Dude was passing out on the train ride back. Says it was totally worth it though. Can't wait to hear the show 'cause I've pretty much forgotten everything already.

Did it look to anyone else like Jah was wearing a grill or something? His teeth were reflecting light whenever he smiled.

How the gently caress does Seth let Jonathan get away with wearing jorts and a tank top on stage? Was it mentioned at all in the show?

Not exactly the first time it's happened, plus Seth lets Jonathan smoke during the in-studio eps all the time, despite the fact it makes Jonathan's voice sound like poo poo. Just one of those things v  v

I wanted to go but could not afford the roughly $1000 it woud have taken after flights, rentals, et al. The lovely thing is that I used to live in southern NH, so it would have been about a 2 hour drive.

Oh one thing that actually really stood out from the show was that Seth told the "LOL = Lots of Love" story saying that his grandmother did that because she just got a cellphone, but that joke is old as poo poo, and Scott Aukerman (I think, may have been the guest) definitely mentioned it on CBB within the past two or three episodes. Not a big deal, but I thought it was really weird for him to use a joke like that masked as a personal story, I don't recall ever noticing either of them doing that before.

Thankfully I live in Boston so I didn't have to make a crazy trip to see the boys live. It was awesome. I'm gonna have to listen to that show again when it goes up because I think I missed a few things - the show felt very short, but awesome. I was also one of the people who waited for like half an hour to get to talk to the guys after the show and couldn't score a poster. I talked to the girl who was behind the signing table with the guys (I called her "intern Jennifer" but that clearly wasn't her name) and she said that they only printed 50 posters because they printed 150 for Seattle and only sold 30. So I'm blaming the Seattle people for the fact that I couldn't get a poster. We went to the bar next door afterwards and about 20 minutes later Jonathan rolled in so we got to chill with him some more, it was pretty rad. And he apparently stole a bunch of coronas from The 'Dise, which I thought was strange. Anyways, it was an awesome night.

Remember, Jonathan copped to shoplifting small things when inconvenienced.

I think the joke is old as poo poo because a lot of people have legitimately had it happen in real life. My uncle, after leaving the Mennonite church and getting a cell phone for the first time a few years ago, thought LOL meant "Lots O' love" and was presently surprised how sweet and kind everyone was being to him via texts.

I recognized her from the photos linked earlier in the thread. (Of course, I feel kinda gross even mentioning it because of how private Seth is. If we were talking about Jonathon's girlfriend, it wouldn't be a big deal but I guess that the very fact that Seth is so weird about that stuff is what makes it vaguely notable. It naturally makes people more curious about someone's personal life when they're so conspicuously silent about it. For example, see all the speculation about what his job might be on their forums.)

Yeah, that was Nick Offerman who said that on CBB. I was kinda shocked when Seth said it too. HoAssHo fucked around with this message at 08:27 on Jul 10, 2012 |

There is a LOL reference in one of the older episodes, in the 30-60 range, because I just heard it the other day.

Listening to Seth & J-Dawg much down on Doritos is probably the only time I've laughed at people eating food. Also, random, but I think I've settled on my 'what episode should I listen to first?' episode: 127. It contains a ton of the video'd youtube clips that people tend to recommend here (Denny's New Slogan, one of the best 'Who's Parenting Harder' bits ever, some awesome craigshouse (shout about this cock!)) plus a bunch of other awesome bits too. Check it.

I got a little nervous when they started the Craig's House segment, thinking the new listeners might find it extreme (I mean that's PRIME Craig's House period,) but that naturally that was the part that had them laughing the hardest. And on top of that, Seth's best bit calling Jonathan out as a fake vegan! "'I'm Vegan. gently caress Doritos, I'd never eat a Dorito.' I've seen you eat Doritos! 'It's an exception, I always give myself an exception. One...or two.'"

Plus the Playgirl bit on top of the vegan rant..holy hell there is so much concentrated awesome in that episode. "I'm gonna get a Snickers Charged, some Newports, and a Playgirl. "..and d'ya have matches? I'm gonna light it all on fire." edit: also, because I clearly can't praise this episode enough: It's No Big Deal, You Need To Get Over It.

He wasn't calling Jah out, just someone he knew. Jah didn't stop being vegan for like two more years.

The whole stretch of eps from 125-130 is maybe the best the show's ever been. I suspect it's because those were the filmed episodes so the guys really brought their A-game, but they're just so, so good. 128 also has my favorite Whole Foods/celebrity encounter story, with Seth finding not just Brad Pitt but the cast of The Hills, followed by Seth and Jah comparing which celebrities they've seen at Whole Foods.

It was a really good episode. I love in the live episodes how the vibe's so different but it's still the same show. Like, Jah's a little giddier, Seth's a little more nervous. And they know what the fans want, that's for loving sure. I like that we even got a couple of short Seth rants.

(other than Seth and Jah's awesome facial expressions, of course) The only real one is, at the beginning, Jah came out waving an American flag and Seth was tossing around a container of marshmallow Fluff. Later on Jah also refers to how glad he is to have chosen to be the sitting one early on in the show but I don't think he says it aloud so much as gestures to himself.
