  1. Amazing Pictures!!! I'd love to be there!!!
    Meanwhile I bought The Incident, just a couple of hours ago, and it's brilliant ! Must be perfect to hear it live...
    Thanks guys!

  2. Great show guys. Saw this one, and the night before at the Ram's Head in Baltimore. I must say that the Ram's Head show was truly exceptional. Any chance there's pictures from that one?

    BTW, several of us flew in from Texas. Please consider stopping by in the Spring, we'd loved to have you again ;)

  3. Fantastic show guys. I'm so glad I finally got to see you live. Also, sorry about drunken mouth-breathers getting into fights at the bar. That was so disrespectful I couldn't believe it.. Enjoy the rest of your tour!

    Cheers!

  5. I'm just throwing this out there, but If a Porcupine tree shirt was made with a vacuum cleaner on the back of it, then I would buy it in a heartbeat. Its like an inside joke to people that actually attend the concerts. Plus the vacuum cleaner got thunderous applause from the Philadelphia crowd.

  13. I live in Cleveland and saw the show there but then a few days later drove 7 hours in heavy rain to see the Philly show. Wow! Better venue, better sound, and better lighting in Philly. Every time you guys tour I go to 2 shows because you really absorb more that way. The new album is great and I hope to see you again in the Spring.

  15. Awesome show!!! I drove all the way from Jacksonville, Florida for the show and had to be back the next afternoon. Twenty-four hours of driving with a two hour break for the show, and it was worth every minute. Please try to do some shows in the Southeast, especially Florida. Loved the setlist!!

  16. Great show!! The Philly show is always awesome!! The Incident is one of PT's best ever yet. The bands talent and musicianship is always incredible. Myself and many others would have loved to hear Blackest Eyes and Halo, I think they should be standards, but I know the length of the Incident shortens the concert list. PT's music is so good it makes me not want to listen to any other music, especially when your in town. I think PT is meant to play together and create the deep and incredible music as always. Hope to see you in Philly in the spring, good luck and please do not separate for a long, long time.
