Since I have a Phish username, I feel obliged to chime in.
 
 In some ways it is a shame that the band chose VA to make its comeback.  These shows are way overhyped.  The Coventry debacle left a bad taste in my mouth - I'm surprised that so many people are so eager to see the band again.  
 
 I also think the hype will die down over the next 5 months.  Spring tour will be announced and a lot of people will think twice about making the trip.  This band has failed to deliver quite often in the last 10 years, I'm willing to take a "wait and see" approach.  Big, overhyped comeback shows = big expectations.
