    I don't work tomorrow, so I was super pumped when I finished work today. On my way home this afternoon, I passed a tractor that looked EXACTLY like the orange & beige tractor on the Montreal/Barrie '98 poster. I don't ever remember seeing it before, and I've driven by that particular farm every day for the past 5 years.

    That has to be a good sign :!: :!: :!:

    ONTARIO LOVES PEARL JAM
    the whole of southern ontario is Pearl Jammed
    and into western New York

    One show of superfans should be a rediculous evening.
    I think it's almost completely a fan club show

    Songs I would like to see:
    Nothingman
    Greivance
    CropDuster
    Oceans
    No Way
    I got SHit
    Save You
    Life Wasted
    State of Love and Trust
    Bleed for me
    Got some
    The Fixer
    Sonic...
    The End
    Smile
    Habit
    Rival
    All Night
    Setting Forth
    Porch
    Rearview Mirror
    Of The Girl
    Thin Air
    Brain of J
    Love Reign O"er Me
    Marker in the Sand
    Crown of Thorns
    Sad
    Wash
    Strangest Tribe
    Spin the black Circle
    1/2 full
    Alive
    yellow ledbeter

    not necesarily in that order.
    Is it not interesting that PJ is playing beside beautiful lake ontario and the wind will be coming up off he lake and through the ampitheathre for a nice cool brease.
    Lotsls of signing eh!Come on passionate Ontarians and our New York neighbors. We now how to party to ultimate respectable drunkeness.

    Patrking wont be bad if you make by 4:or so and getting out wont be too hard - 1/2 hour 45 min slog through thraffic but if moves along qiuckly

    I'll be there bt 4 - get a beach parking spot an start the picnic backing on to the lake with wine and cigarettes hand made?
    The greatest show on Earth and the most impacful public gatherings on earth.
    We support paying more the fact that PJ have cemented their epic status in all recorded history
    LESS than 24 hours
    then CHICAGo with my wife
    all in all an intense few days!comin up!

    For those interested,

    My bro works at the venue, and will have access to PJ's schedule tomorrow when he goes to work at 10 am... I will post here in the thread what time they are going for soundcheck so that others can get near the venue and hear it.. I'm personally planning on heading down to pick up my 10c tix around that time. I can also post anticipated show times...

    P.S. I've posted this before, but be prepared for maddness down there tomorrow... the venue has been oversold by 4000 tickets, and between the show and the first night of the Ex with $1.50 tickets they are expecting 40,000+ people to be trying to clear out of there between 11 and 11:30, so if someone's driving, stash some road rockets in your car for me would ya???

    Cheers, and enjoy the show tomorrow!!

    shep
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Going to grab tickets early. Is there anything going on before the show anywhere?

    Where is the best/closest place to park with a cooler in the trunk and a few cold ones while waiting? We will probably leave from Waterloo between 1 and 3. My boys (14 and 11) are going to their first concert!!!! They are really pumped. Especially my older son. Any advice is really appreciated.

    edit - Oh, and if anyone is meeting for some tailgating - let me know when and where! :)

    Anybody know if the merch table will take VISA or is it cash only? I need to load up!

  • i'm half SO excited and half SO bummed. lonnnng time fan, let my membership lapse for the past year and was a day late renewing...so....it's lawn city for me. :(

    ah, hell, it will still be great. right???

    happy show everyone!
  • shepshep Houston Posts: 5,802
    Still no word yet on the soundcheck...

    Apparently security is being very stingy releasing any information, even to people who work at the freaking show... my bro is at the media gate and hasn't found out yet... and my other buddy is the head of media relations and is following eddie around all day, and thus won't answer his phone....

    I'm expecting a call back shortly though to get the soundcheck time... in the next 20 minutes or so, will keep all poster...

    Thanks. I don't see the big deal with people knowing the soundcheck time ... but I am sure that there are reasons...

    Just spoke to a buddy who just picked up his tickets..

    He said it was quite busy..

    He is number 78xxx and got Section 201 row U..but he said a guy in front of him with a 10c number of 221xxx got the back rows of Section 102..and another guy either won the lottery or has a retarded number b/c he pulled Section 101 row A.

    He said they told him that there are 3,000 10c tickets..[not sure if thats 3k tickets, or 3k pairs]

    I didn't think they could oversell the venue. I guess they are going to be packed like sardines on the lawn?

    a poster above said that sections 100, 200 and middle 300 are all for 10c.

    So they may be filling section 201 then filling section 202 then 203 etc..

    My number is 256xxx and I might be closer to the stage then him if i pull something like, Section 203 row M..
