I agree with Jentastic... it was an awesome show but something was a little different. The balcony was a little too somber. I also knew for weeks that if "This Ride" was played, I'd probably let a tear or two escape.
Whose big idea was it to make growing up mandatory? Boo! Seeing these boys live will forever be part of my growing up

This was the 8th time that I've seen these guys and it was probably their best, they played some really good old songs (Greg's Last Day was my favorite) and made the crowd really feel like they were a part of the last show. I'll miss these guys if this hiatus is truly permanent.

This show was probaly the best night of my life.
all the bands were amazing, steel train especially.
But The Starting Line was so fantastic, words cant even discribe it. I've seen these guys before but this time was hands down my favorite.,
thank you matt,mike,tom and kenny.

That show was epic. Haven't been in a pit in about 4 years now...but when i heard "Leaving", I ran downstairs and jumped in. I forgot how much being covered in everyone elses sweat kinda sucks - but I also forgot how great it feels to be singing along with a bunch of ecstatic strangers who are all just having a great time.

I love the Electric Factory (I've only been there twice - and the starting line played both of them... awesome!) and this was totally worth the 3 hour train ride from NYC.

Can't wait to be like damn near 30 when these guys reunite... I hope I can make it down to the pit with my plastic hip replacement.

Some might say I'm crazy for driving 8 hours to see this show the week before my first year law school exams. I can't imagine not having done it. TSL has given me so many memories over the last six years and basically was the soundtrack to my last two years of high school. This show was a fabulous tribute to an amazing career, albeit a relatively short one. When "Greg's Last Day" started, I knew we were in for an insanely good show, and I was not let down. Watching up from the balcony, looking down at the pit, where I surely would have been five or six years ago, I realized how meaningful one good show can be to a fan. My first TSL experience at Warped Tour at age sixteen is one of my most cherished memories. Thank you guys for an extraordinary show, and a great run. Don't be gone too long.
