    If I am now 50 can I move down to 49, if 49 gives up on pj?

    PLEASE SAY YESSSSS

    Well..your number itself doesn't change, but where you sit your ass sure does ;-)

    What's wrong with you people??

    I think it is because there are more tickets available then past shows. We will find out when MSG goes on sale.

    higher than?

    higher then last time they were in DC.

    don't mind me, i'm just babbling.

    i remember it being around $50 (10c) for that DC show.

    I said all along these will be easier to get.....people dont listen.

    for the 05 and 06 tours, the tickets lasted a few days each, with the exception of a couple of shows.

    Remember, these are fan club tickets.....only fan club members can purchase.

    These are not VIC tickets or Ed solo tours where only a few hundred are available.

    THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF TICKETS FOR THESE SHOWS.


    yup yup

    As well, there aren't nearly as many fans that travel into these shows I suspect.


    i am flying in from seattle for these shows. i suspect my 187*** will get me closer in west palm beach than it would in new york. it still amazes me that people look at a list of cities and choose to go where the most 10club members (and therefore worst seats) are.

    Just curious for all this. Does that mean that there isn't some sort of 10% rule for 10C tix? Or fan club tix?

    I believe you are exactly right.

    We will see tommorrow with Camden. If they feel there is big enough demand for a 2nd show there should be alot of 10clubbers trying for tix.

    Tomorrows Camden sale will set the bar for true interest and show just what kind of inventory/popularity these shows will have.

    NE Shows much more interest than SE/Southern Shows.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Are you people serious???


    Why wouldnt i be serious. In the nineties they sold out everything, hell in '98 they had 2 west palm beach shows. Now they only have one and fan club tix seem to be moving slower than usual. This could be because they have more who knows for sure.

    Put it this way, Im sure that there are the same percentage of fans in West Palm Beach as there are in NYC city relative to the population of each city. But if 5% of the WPB population are Pearl Jam fans that would be say 20,000 people where as 5% of NYC population would be 75,000 (numbers areclearly made up). So even if they sell out MSG it doesnt gauge the demand around the country.

    You could ask plenty of questions about this...
    - Since the south was passed by in '06, did fan club members in the south decide not to renew for two years, therefore leaving them out of the presale?
    - Are there still people who haven't checked their e-mail to know about the concert? It was announced right before Easter weekend...
    - Is Florida not a Pearl Jam hotspot?

    You can ask so many questions, make excuses, whatever. They'll sell their tickets, people will attend. If it doesn't sell out completely, the band isn't quitting. No need to be worried.

    No shit. The St Pete Times Forums (Tampa) is bigger than MSG (size wise.) Hell, WPB holds up to 19,000 people for a concert and SC holds 18,000 so these places aren't small at all. It's not like these are small venues where the band can't move 500-1000 tickets. The smallest venue, if you stick to the 10% ten club, would have 1800 fan club tickets. All venues added up you have 5800 fan club only tickets. In three different areas, hours a part. It was already clelar that Pearl Jam's largest fan base did not lay in the South but people need to stop trying to belittle the shows we got and make it seem like we don't give a shit that PJ is coming, were not going. I myslef bought two pairs of tickets today, and I know many others have also. This tickets will move when open to the public.

    I know. People are seriously crazy.

    they do realize that this is a FANCLUB sale, correct?

    MOST of the population arent crazy fanclub members like we are.

    the tickets will sell out.....when they go ONSALE. Chicago in 06 was available for a few days, and they still announced a second show...while the first still had available tickets.....

    And by the way, I am clearly from the south, but I just can't make any of the southern shows due to work schedule. That's the only reason.

    So I am opting for Mansfield instead.

    Really? And I was under the impression that anything north of Virgina sold out within two minutes. People are underestimating the size of these venues.

    I'm bummed to be missing WBP, but i already have tix to see Radiohead
    I'm happy tix are still available, maybe i'll actually have a chance to snag garden tix and they won't sell out in .00001 seconds

    To all the fla people enjoy, wish i was going to be there too
    '96 7 shows / '97 3 shows / '98 15 shows
    '00 12 shows / '03 4 shows / '06 6 shows

    In the past tours ALL fanclub members got tix to the shows during the presale regardless of how many of us bought tix. Hence, they wont sellout until at least they are available to the general public.
    MSG 03 all fanclub members got tix to the shows which is why the whole floor and the whole lower bowl were fanclub members. I have a 174xxx number and I was in the lower bowl many sections from the satge.
    ... two birds is what they'll see ... getting lost upon their way ...
  • it's not a small increase. tix in 2003 were $40. now they're $70. no big deal to me personally, but I bet it is to a lot of people.

    You do realize the dollar has lost like nearly a full 30% of its value since then, right?

    40/70 - 1 = .43 or 43% increase.
    43%-30% = 13% increase.

    13% ... does that seem like a "fair" increase from 2003?

    You guys need to look up the term "inflation"
    and then get a clue about what the Fed is doing to your dollar.
    The dollar has gone from like 120 on the dollar index in the mid 90s to about 72 now.

    Its lost half its value in 10 years.
    Don't think the band is going to take a 50% pay cut to keep prices where they were 10 years ago.

    :rolleyes:
