What? Janet, of course you should join. There are lots of reasons.
1. Everyone here is so nice.
2. You don't have to post unless you want to.
3. Joelle probably won't let up until you do.
4. We're all the Hold Steady anyway, so what not?
5. Really, really good, up-to-the-minute ticketing information. Jeebus.

Janet, this is a pretty awesome place. And I don't know Joelle, but she seems like someone with good judgment. So I say, join the board.

Janet,
i dropped out of the message board scene a long time ago and had decided that i would never get involved with another board. then at the THS/DBT show in Bloomington, i met Brendan and he started talking to me about the board and the community.
then at the DBT/THS show in Chicago, i met up with Brendan and he introduced me to a lot of the people that were there. i had such an awesome time that i decided that i would give it a chance.
since i have come over, i have got the chance to interact with a lot of great people. there is such a diverse crowd and everyone is great. of course people have different opinions of things but it is all part of the community.
as soon as a show is announced, you can see the excitement that people have of not only getting to see THS but getting to see their friends from here flock to the event.
give it a try....you have nothing to lose and so much to gain.....and if you don't like it.....you can always hide from us.....we will never know......

I used to lurk the old board, and was brought out of hiding by Seann's offer of the very first Unified Scene shirts -- that shirt brought me to Birmingham out of the blue to meet a bunch of strangers, and then to Ybor, and to friends made of strangers I never knew I was missing and now can't imagine not having in my life.
This board? I recommend it.

Janet,
If you don't come on board you won't get to know ME.
How can you live with yourself if you are left unaware of my awesomeness?
Help me help you!!
(And what other board offers free tshirts, beers and mix cds?)

Janet,
I know how awesome joelle is only via these boards - her little gift packages have been ace and she has baiscally been my busienss partner in the sense of joint shirt operations. Total trust, respect, sincerity and kindness - and yet I've never met her.
you on the other hand have met her and must know how great she is - why not follow her suggestion ? Quite simply I'd say you should follow her advice and come to the party.
You are bound to meet a number of people from here in the flesh anyway if you are at future ths gigs.
This (or the earlier incarnations of it) are the only board i've ever posted upon so I can understand you might be nervous. But I've had some amazing experiences as a direct result of these boards - all of which are postitive.

Janet. Jesus Christ in a shopping cart. Why did you let the peer pressue get to you? You coulda been somebody, You coulda been a contender.
Welcome.
Everyone here is pretty cool if you can get by the dorky shirts and nerdy shoes.
