    Open bar? Private seating? AND it includes the ticket price. That is not a bad deal.

    Does the box have a good view of the stage? The price is really not bad if it includes an open bar and food.

    Perhaps it's 3 hours of beer, wine, soda service ... and, you have to pay for consumption?

    I just received an email from someone at the Spectrum about this.

    Premium Seating has limited ticket packages available for Pearl Jam, one of the biggest bands in the world.

    Pearl Jam will pay their final respects to the Spectrum when they perform their only East Coast appearance at the soon-to-close arena on Wednesday, October 28 and Friday, October 30.

    Mr. burger says there is an 80% chance of the Halloween show ;) I like those odds. It all depends on how quickly the first 2 sell.

    Also, packages are $225 per ticket with a VIP parking pass for every 4 you purchase. Drinks are free for 3 hours beginning 1 hour prior to the show start(opening band). They are in Section 205 and 210 with a private bathroom. That's not too bad. However, I think I will try my chances for TC tix and a kickass tailgate party with unlimited drinks from the trunk of my car ;)

    if that's the determining factor, Oct 31 is closer to 99%

    believe me, theres nothing premium about these boxes, its one of the main reasons they moved over to the wachovia center in the first place. its a good option if you totally strike out on tix though
    Small my table, seats just 3, its not crowded, its just lucky me

    that doesn't seem too, too bad. i'm going on a trip to london with my uncle and those are what we have for our pj seats. wasn't my choice, but i'm not going to complain since he is taking me there!

    and i know you all will probably hate me for this :(
    but there is a scalper that is close with a family member who always pulled through in the past much better then my 10c seats (normally give those to friends). well, for $135 a ticket i'm already locked into both Philly shows with great seats. i won't find out where for a long time, maybe even the day of. most of the time he ends up with 10c seats :o . i always feel weird doing it, but i am a dedicated fanclub member and for not tooo bad of a price i go through no ticket stress and my seats are always better.

    so folks who lose out on the presales DO NOT LOSE HOPE!
    my theory: you can ALWAYS get tickets to a concert.

    no hate....
    that's simply fucked up.
    unsurprising, but still very fucked up.
    and hey, i realize we all want good seats, but yea...you are supporting scalping of 10c tix.
    and yea, that's fucked up.


    that said.....whatever......enjoy your seats and the shows!

    well at that point it's not like there is anyone preventing them anyway. you know? I think some scalpers just have 10c numbers to sell the tickets. at that point what can you do? i mean it's better off a diehard fan like us buys those tickets from them and is worthy to rock out in the great seats rather then a random casual! see what i mean? and also, i'm not certain if they are exactly 10c seats. however, they have always been great and with a 10c crowd around me. and hey, if i have friends going i still buy my 10c tickets and normally give them to them. see .. not AS fucked up as it sounds.

    Had to check out the location of the boxes, and they are in the opposite corners from the stage. I saw a show in a similar box back in the day at the spectrum and it was like watching a movie. Don't think I would like it for PJ.

    If I don't get TC tix for the Philly shows, I'm hoping I can pull some strings with friends with boxes closer to the stage.
    If there were no Angels would there be no sin?

    If I had a scalper friend of the family and he could get me kick ass Pearl Jam tickets for $135 a pop. I would do it... though he must be a good friend if he is going to give you tickets for that price when he could easily get twice if not more for them. Story sounds fishy to me.

    :lol: I'm with crazypjfan! The Premium Club Box Tickets look like a great deal for other artists.....but partying with 100's of fans outside, and sitting in 10c seats is the way to attend a Pearl Jam show! :lol:
    PEARL JAM in 2024! Dark Matter and MORE ! THANK YOU!!   
    Peace Love & Pearl Jam forever!!

    Haha, this is pretty funny. Joe and I started at Comcast-Spectacor right around the same time, this is pretty random. Funny to see a buddies name pop on this board. I kept in touch with other co-workers better but Joe is a good guy and will definitely help you out.

    Club Box seats are a great buy in the Wachovia Center but not necessarily the Spectrum. Basically the biggest suite they have with individual packages sold. That said, I saw Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and Bob Seger from Club Boxes at the Spectrum and always had a great time.

    I could easily drink $225 worth of beer in 3 hours. So, it would be like getting the ticket for free 8-)

    doesn't sound like a bad deal, but i think i'd rather be down in the trenches surrounded by tenclubbers than up in some fancy club box.
    i'm more a fan of popular bands.. like the bee-gees, pearl jam

    I just booked my own box today sidestage about 30 feet away from stage for Friday october 30, 2009. 12 seats in box, 3 hours beer, wine soda, and a buffet (hot dogs, pizza, pretzels, chicken tenders) and 4 vip parking passes (closest lot). Box is more expensive per ticket but much closer than the 225 vip package.
    My eagles phillies and flyers season tickets have paid off. I will post if I have extras but if anyone is interested in sharing the experience with unlimited 30 packs of Miller lite email me

    correct there is absolutely nothing fancy about the boxes in the spectrum....2 rows of seats, no room to walk have to climb over one another bathroom on the concourse....close quarters
