So we plan a trip every year to Philly to watch the Flyers and Eagles......We are all Flyers fans and some are Eagles fans.Pearl Jam Being in town pretty much solidified which weekend we are booking for this year.....Anyway,1 buddy of ours cant go that weekend (he is a S.T.P. fan and has a hate on for PJ) and here is a few tidbits of the conversation....
Friend:
"If that is the weekend that was chosen, then that's the weekend - I just can't go. It's no big deal because I've already gone once this year.
Probably a good thing because I don't think I could handle a weekend dedicated to Pearl Jam. Hearing about the fuckin' Eagles is tough enough!
"
Me: "Maybe they will play casino rama one day." (Rama is a local casino just north of toronto that S.T.P played last week that seats 1500 people)
Friend:
"I don't think so. PJ are much too big a band and too relevant to pop culture to be playing such a hole"
Me: "Amen to that"
Friend:
"Anyways, how could they seeing how Cobain is dead...oh wait, I think I'm getting my culturally significant bands confused. Never mind."
Me:
"Yep,you are getting the bands confused....1 band burnt out long ago and the other just becomes more legendary......Cobain has nothing on that Edie Vetter guy....whatever his name is."
He hasnt responded back to the last one yet......anyway,shit like this used to get to me because he thinks he has a clue about music but now i just have fun with it because he clearly dont know. Im sure we all have friends like this anyway.....
just felt like sharing that for some stupid reason.

And that's why I hate Creed and mainly Scott Stapp
Oh, and I didn't like where their sound was going after their first album.
Sorry to hijack your thread

bleh... firing squad please!
Do PJ fan club members also believe in Unicorns and the Loch Ness Monster? What a beautiful, utopian place that must be.
He didn't confuse the bands in the earlier message,he is just a sarcastic bastard.

Xbox: So how much are tickets for the Pearl Jam shows?
Cran: About $83.
Xbox: Wow. Green Day tickets are only $60.
Cran: You get what you pay for, I guess.
Xbox: Yah, right. Be sure to let me know the next time Pearl Jam puts out a relevant album.
Cran: OK, and you be sure to let me know the next time a Green Day concert isn't a daycare.
If I meet you at a show....
I will buy you a beer.

Green Day also has $25 seats available for their show at in Philly
Obviously Green Day isnt on the same level as PJ but close enough and they can get away with charging so little for seats to their show in same venue?
Here is a bigger laugh, $25 for Green Day tix and $77 for PJ tix at same venue and both for the worst seat in the house is a HUGE difference.
Whats up tiger lily?
Yah, I like how PJ ticket prices have soared the past 5 or 6 years, while apologists point to acts like Madonna or whatever charging hundreds of dollars. They ignore the fact that big acts like Green Day don't need to do the same.
I am hitting the GreenDay show at the Spectrum on Tuesday. My TM seats cost me $60 (after fees). I don't think the PJ tix are outrageously prices as some are insinuating
I will buy you a beer.

Are you going to the Toronto show? Seattle? Philly?

they sell out!
GD sells their music (like American Idiot) so they can afford to sell cheap concerts...and with the way the record sales are these days and the fact PJ doesn't sell out (or hardly sell out, as of late) PJ has to charge a little extra just to be able to make a decent living
as for the big names that sell out and have high ticket prices...well they're just fuckin greedy...they all have the green disease
