Pearl Jam to do ACL taping Oct. 3By Michael Corcoran | Thursday, June 18, 2009, 09:07 PM

The day before they headline the Austin City Limits Music Festival, Pearl Jam will tape an episode of the namesake TV show. With a capacity of 320, it looks to be the toughest ticket for an “ACL” taping since Coldplay in 2005. Show producer Terry Lickona said to check the www.austincitylimits.org closer to showtime for ticket giveaway info.

“I sure wish the new studio was ready for Pearl Jam,” Lickona said, referring to the 2,750-capacity venue being built on West Second Street across from City Hall. “We’d still have to turn away people, but not quite as many.” Construction of the $40 million Austin City Limits Theater is expected to be completed in October 2010.

Also added to the coming 35th season of ACL are Allen Toussaint, who’ll tape his ACL debut June 30, and M. Ward Aug. 5. Again, check the web site for ticket details.

    Impossible to get tickets for this. Tickets are distributed to "Friends of ACL" first. They distribute extra tickets to the public in case of no shows. So, even if you have a ticket, you are not guaranteed to get in.

    When REM did their taping, their fanclub managed to get tix for members in the Austin area. Tenclub, I'm looking in your direction...

    I second that motion jwillmo. ACL tix for Austin fanclub members would be great! I was just looking back through my PJ & Ramones 95 Southpark Meadows pics the other day ... good memories

    I hope they air this on TV in Massachusetts.

    It would be cool if a few people from this message board get into the taping!

    I don't know. I know a couple of people in Austin that are going to try really hard but I bet if they get in they already have friends going.

    Here is the standard ACL TV Show ticket policy. Not sure if 10C can/will do something different.
