too bad I don't have the nerve to start 15 new threads on asking for Philly updates....
The thing is, at this point I don't foresee anyone having anything useful in terms of updates. I think we have heard just about everything you could possibly hear, and we still don't know jack.
It's a waiting game now.... and it blows ha.

got a car...got some gas...oh let's get out of here-get out of here fast...
I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
I want to go but I want to go with you.
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. -MT
I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.
I don't think we'll hear anything today. Sadly I think we are going to have to sweat it out for another day or two.
I'm with you, but am still refreshing thinking there is a chance....is that sad ?!

I guess there arent enough of us refreshing the tickets page enough all at the same time to force the 10C to come out and tell us to stop and give us a pre sale date and time!
And when you call don't ask if there's a show, ask when the show is going on sale. We can trick them into thinking an announcement was made and they'll be all befuddled and unwittingly give us the info we're looking for.

I did this today. I called and said I was looking for tickets for a show on the 31st, they replied "Pearl Jam?" I said yes, they said they havent been given the word to start telling tickets and they expect the announcement to come within a few days.
Then he said, "you know they added one on the 27th, too, right?"
So, once more confirmation for both the 31st and 27th. Sounds like next week.

just heard Pierre on WMMR , at 2:15, played a PJ song then said there may be another date or dates added to the Spectrum shows. (This is not word for word what he said, I'm paraphrasing, but that was basically what he said)! Will have to scramble to find $ for 2 more shows!!

holy shit man. i'm a senior in high school and i am already missing 3 days for 28 + 30 .. when 31 is added thats easy! but 27 too!?? i'd have to miss 4 days! i dont give the slightest shit .. but getting my parents on board for that won't be easy! but i can't miss the first night! shit, i'd have to be at all 4!

just got off the phone with spectrum ticketing and the woman said that she heard about them "likely adding 2 more dates" but they had no information about when tix go on sale. she definitely stumbled over herself when i (gently) inquired about information, so it seems like something is brewing.....
Something will be announced, but the fact that it's Wednesday - almost 3 pm and tix usually go onsale Friday or Saturday - I'm thinking we'll have another week or so till an announcement.
Bruce tix go onsale on Monday and Comcast is promoting those right now. So I figure the earliest PJ tix would go on sale to allow promotion for the onsale of additional dates would be next week - probably next Friday to the general public. So I expect a tweet or a post by Rubysdad next Monday or Tuesday.
i called earlier and asked to buy tickets for the 31st.
they said they showed nothing.

instead of calling the Spectrum, let's have everyone on line at the same exact, scheduled time to refresh the tickets page as a polite protest to send the message that we are here and we are waiting..impatiently...
its a more, silent request, or plea if you will, for the 10c to keep feeding our addiction and bless us with even more good news

I think you're right. If the sale was this week, these operators people are talking to would have info.

I can't do 2 more shows... just want Saturday!!!! Actually can't believe there would be 4 shows...
I think if its 4 theyll have to announce a big time opener as well, because I dont think the shows were "instant" sellouts.
I'm glad to hear people have been getting some hints from the venue about the 27th and 31st, but still not getting my hopes up. just want the 31st show so I'm flying out for 2 shows rather than 1.
I think if its 4 theyll have to announce a big time opener as well, because I dont think the shows were "instant" sellouts.
I also don't see how they could possibly do 4 shows. If the Oct 31 show is in fact the last show ever at the Spectrum, I could see that one including a series of special guests OR one major special guest (like Neil Young). That seems like the only logical way that they'd be able to sell out the 31st and the 27th.

I don't think there's any question they would sell out the 31st. Even if they had Hatebeak (the metal band with the parrot as a singer) open they would still sell out that show. The 27th is a different beast. I can definitely seem them having trouble with that one.

If they sold tix the way they did in 03, it would have been an instant sell out. $37 face per ticket and no tix behind the stage.
Now with $77 face for tix and tix behind the stage, the 30th sold out in a couple hours and all that's really left for the 28th are random singles and pairs in the 400 level behind the stage.
The 31st would be an instant sellout if billed as last show ever at the venue and it's a saturday show.
The 27th would probably be mostly sold out except for some seats behind the stage.
