    Love it. 50 people comment on this yet Cosmo quotes me in multiple threads. Seriously though, glad you got tickets and good luck on Ticket Master. Enjoy the shows.

    But if this happened anywhere in the south, most of this board would be up in arms and wondering where the fans are.

    Philly will sell out both shows at the Spectrum in seconds.
    ...
    Only because you seem to make it like we don't care about the band out here. We DO. Everyone i know out here is trying to figure out a way to get into all 4 shows... by, pairing up with others and some of them even leaving their spouses, who aren't into the band that much, out in the cold. If we were given the opportunity to get all 4, they would have vanished in an instance and this thread would not exist.
    If the Philly shows were held in the same manner (only being able to buy one show), there's a chance that there would be tickets available for longer periods. I bet a lot of those Philly fans will buy for both shows... I would, if i were them.
    it has nothing to do with the location and everything to do with the constraints of purchasing for only one of four available shows.

    And Philly fans will be able to purchase both shows without reservation.

    And Philly is only two hours away from a city with 8.5 million people.

    What's your point?

    Just that the LA metro area is home to 12.9 million and 3 of those amphitheaters would fit into the Spectrum.

    So if 10C gets 10% of the tickets (we have no way of knowing this). Then that is 2400 or so tickets for the 4 LA shows and 4000 or so for the Spectrum shows (assuming around 20,000 seats for concerts) and they will be gone in an instant.

    Philly wins.

    And by the way this is my very last post on this subject because after almost 5 years I am sick to death of north/west/south/east BS.

    You guys enjoy the LA shows. Seriously. That venue looks awesome.

    You should spend more time listening to Pearl Jam and less time being jealous, bitter, or whatever it is you're feeling.

    Except that those 2400 would have been gone immediately as well if we were allowed to purchase more than one show as Philly will be.

    It is KILLING me that I can't pick up one of those lingering sets of la 4's. Believe you me...if I could, I would. But restrictions being what they are with the 10C, no can do.

    Anyone fooling themselves that LA doesn't care enough, just keep on keepin' on. We know what's up out here.

    Hoping 10C will set those extras free after official window for presale is over. Oh, and fingers are so crossed for SD.
