That is a good assumption. This is what is driving everyone bonkers. People are dropping hints, Crappy Websites are publishing stupid stories, MMR Jocks are hinting, Someone Booked Suite Q for that show. Just no announcement. Then Bruce Announces 2 shows and then adds 2 more the day after tickets go on sale.

Yea! This is bullshit! Let's f-ing go already!
Walks on his own... With thoughts he can't help thinking...

What's driving me bonkers is needing to make arrangements for the shows and waiting because I'm thinking they'll add a date or two! Apparently Pearl Jam likes to make the Philly tourism industry sweat it out a bit, too.

Yeah, with everything that has been going on (rumors, hints, suite sales, etc.) and with Calgary coming up, I like to think that we'll get something very soon. Of course that is entirely wishful thinking on my part.
For some reason they seem to have recently been making announcements on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays (of course I could easily be implementing selective memory to justify another day on the board). One would like to think that they would therefore announce something today or Friday. Then again, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of logic to what is going on right now.
Anyway... here's to another day of roaming the boards for any shred of meaningless evidence that points to an announcement today...
5/28/06 - Camden, NJ 5/30/06 - Washington, DC 6/22/08 - Washington, DC 10/31/09 - Philadelphia, PA 8/5/16 - Fenway Park Temple of the Dog - 11/5/2016 - Philadelphia, PA 7/1/2018 - Prague 7/3/2018 - Kraków 7/5/2018 - Berlin
I still think The Spectrum (Comcast Tickets) is driving the bus. The added Springsteen shows go on sale tomorrow, so I'd guess an announcement about more PJ won't happen until Friday at soonest.
10/31 is the easiest of the eight shows to sell, so it makes sense to save it for last.

I agree and I think it may even be some sort of closing show with other bands.

man i hope you're wrong!
if they have a 10c presale from mid august onwards.....i am pretty much out of contention. :( tis THE busiest time in my year work-wise. ugh. i am really, really hoping for a friday announcemnt, and perhaps a monday presale.
i'll keep wishing and hoping and dreaming...

however, pearl jam was announced as the last act to play the spectrum.
I heard from somebody that "Philly 4 is said to have close to 8,500 10C seats available instead of the usual 1,500!" :shock:
Who is your source? C'mon, out with it!
That would be pretty awesome though, wouldn't it?

i know there are rumors of 4 shows, but i thought as of right now, most rumors focused on 3. that said, when you refer to philly 4, do you then mean the saturday 10.31 gig? if so - cool! however, even 8,500 10c tix will not be enough!

Yeah, I don't know about the multi-bill thing. I think it'll be just PJ, but like I discussed with someone in another Philly thread, the Holmdel and Boston 3 marathon show were announced way afterwards. I can see this happening for this special show, as those two shows were quite nice.
I think it's going to be weeks before this show gets announced.
Why? I find it odd that Springsteen leapfrogged PJ in terms of adding dates, as I said in another thread, but there's no upside I know of waiting weeks to announce more PJ.
I think people over-think the whole "10-C will wait until after Calgary..." kind of stuff. It takes rubysdad five minutes to post the announcement here, and the sale itself is over in 20 minutes or so.

I'm still holding strong to my theory that announcement will be next week along with the NZ and Australia shows and the shows that fill the gaps between Seattle and LA (Portland, Vegas?) and the gaps between SD and Philly.
however, pearl jam was announced as the last act to play the spectrum.
does that mean its only pearl jam?
And the owners of the spectrum have flip flopped so many times regarding the closing, who knows what to believe?
No tweet tells me that there may be other acts involved and that there may be some kind of "grand finale" show.
But its all just masturbatory speculation until there is an announcement.
The PJ show scheduled for October 31st has been moved..its been moved to my basement...some of you are invited..some of you arent..thats the breaks..a random selection will be made for the 6 remaining tickets...please feel free to tell me WHY I should invite you. Anyone from NY and out West need not apply..this is a special show..they will be tearing down my house after the show ends so I want this to be for locals only who have fond memories of my basement..

When exactly have they flip flopped? They came out about a month and a half ago and pushed the closing date back from 9/30 to the end of October. Then they said that Pearl Jam would be the last act to play there with dates scheduled 10/28 and 10/30. They never said that 10/30 would be the date of the last show.

to me it does....and it is also my hope. who knows tho for certain?
and is 'maturbatory speculation' your new fave term or what?
if pearl jam, and only pearl jam (with of course special guest/opener/whatever) were not to be the last act there...to me, doesn't make sense to say they are. if it's going to be some grand jam band festival.....well then...it makes sense to say some grand jam will be the last show. but hey, that's just me being a stickler. :P
no tweets tells me....nothing.
just like most no tweets.
I really don't think 10/31 is gonna be a big all-star jam or whatever. If you're serving filet mignon, you don't lay a bunch of bagels and fruit on the table.

couldnt fit it all in one post huh?
the spectrum was supposed to close awhile ago, but the owners underestimated the local response, so they have extended the closing date three times or something like that
so take what they say with a grain of salt
and yes we are just stroking ourselves until there is an announcement-even if there are strong rumors

The 9/30/09 closing date was given out last year in February or March 2008 when they announced they were closing the venue. They changed the date this summer and went on radio and tv stating that last month.

and yes, i know....and all reserve the right to change their minds.
however, i am gonna believe (unless told otherwise) that if pearl jam is slated to be the last band to play the spectrum, that indeed, they will be the last band to play the spectrum. i can only go by info already out there. beyond that, there just seems to be flying soooo many rumors, so much speculation....so yea, i am still quite hopeful for a 10.31 show. and sure i realize that....but i thought all enjoyed it, so just go with it and stop trying to interfere...... :twisted:
seems to me, those most vocal about it not happening, are the ones with no intention of going. i wonder why that is?

and yes, i know....and all reserve the right to change their minds.
however, i am gonna believe (unless told otherwise) that if pearl jam is slated to be the last band to play the spectrum, that indeed, they will be the last band to play the spectrum. i can only go by info already out there. beyond that, there just seems to be flying soooo many rumors, so much speculation....so yea, i am still quite hopeful for a 10.31 show. and sure i realize that....but i thought all enjoyed it, so just go with it and stop trying to interfere...... :twisted:
seems to me, those most vocal about it not happening, are the ones with no intention of going. i wonder why that is?
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
