I may be wrong but I'm fairly certain the "Pay Per View here we come" comment was in reference to hotel porn. he made a similar comment after lateralus about them not being finished and that we (the audience) would have to wait to go back to the hotels and the pay per view. i may well be wrong, but that was my interpretation. based on MJK's history of sex-based references and my knowledge of hotel pay-per-view selections.

another irony that struck me tonight was the line maynard does actually sing at the climax of Vicarious - "much better you than I" - with all the recent postings abuot his voice and the fact that he's skipped the "vicariously I live" crescendo for the past ? number of shows, but then he follows up with the next line, it just struck me tonight that it meant its better for the fans to sing that part and let him save his voice.

all in all, i found tonight better than last night. swamp song was killer, glad to finally catch that one live. still disappointed in overall set list, but i'll live. up in 312 tonight vs 203 last night. although 203 was straight on view of stage and ideal audio perspective, i personally liked being above the band and having much closer view. you lose some of the visual impact of the individual members silhouetted against their respective screens, and the tapestry was blocked by the speaker rack, but just being able to see justin rock out and (obviously ) seeing danny do his thing from a birds eye view was awesome. well worth the $$ spent on tickets and two flights out to vegas - hard to bitch about having to come to vegas twice in a 2 month span.
