    that ramones stuff looks fucking sweet as hell. i'm drooling like homer simpson.

    whew! I was a bit hesitant not knowing if these items would be popular among a Pearl Jam fanbase even with PJ's ties to the Ramones. From what I was told, Ramones fans freak out for this stuff. Most items I have are raffle prizes but one is up for auction (it sells for over $150).
    :-D:-D You know some crazy Ramones fans, LOL? ;-)

Maybe you can use some Jedi Mind Tricks on me to make a specific raffle item an auction item for a day you are there....or if you dont win anything via raffle, maybe you can trade with the winner...good luck and see you there!
    ok will do

    So how did you get ed to donate all that ramones stuff, kidding.
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

    Cannot wait Cindy! So many great fans all in one place gives me chills thinking about it. Don't let the teasing pics fool you, Dave is sweet in many ways - lucky girl Mrs Dave. ;-) Both are incredibly good people, inside & out. Proud to call them friends. Great group with the local folks, Wishlist peeps and many others coming in from all over I'm stoked. Halloween will never be the same.

    The Force is strong on the weak minded...Ha, just kidding EV..just kidding.

    I wish I got it thru EV's relationship with the Ramones but let's just say I have a friend on the inside of the franchise itself...those zainy, crazy Ramones fans have made an entire business line for their merch. We are benefiting from it and their generosity...glad to have them help us!

    I never go to the pre-parties because I'm usually busy, but I'm going to try my darndest to make it on 10.31! I probably won't make it very early, but I do want to buy raffle tickets and stuff so I'm wondering what time the raffle is, etc. :)

    Well we'll probably do the raffles around 5 and the auctions after that so that people can get their stuff and bring them to their cars or whatnot

    Speedy and others: as of 10/15 (and as Petrocs mentioned- from the OP):

    1) Spectrum parking LOT F on 11th Street.
    Please note we will be somewhere in the Lot F but away from the major artery within F where cars will be using. Most likely right next to 11 St and Lot E in the corner there...

    OR

    2)McFadden's Bar and Restaurant in Citizen's Bank Park***
    ***We may move any or all of the 4 nights to McFadden's depending on a number of items such as weather, parking lot problems etc. No pre parties at McFaddens on 10/31 if the Phillies are playing that day.


    ***Please note that we are dealing with all sorts of logistical issues here such as weather, phillies, flyers, and the spectrum actually closing itself etc. Please check back frequently for updates and possibly a new thread started to get your attention of any location updates***

    ...will be ready for anything... 8-)

    (but still bringing a bar...too many drink requests not to...)

    :D
    I love to turn you on
  • Long time viewer, first time poster, but stumbled across the thread and would like to RSVP for 10/28, 10/30 and crossing my fingers for 10/31 :). Really looking forward to meeting such a great core of fans. Assume everyone will be in costume for 10/31...

    just keep one thing in mind, with all the possible events going on at the complex, you may not have a choice as to which lot you can park

    I know that I have tried several times to organize tailgates in specific locations only to be directed to another lot by the po po.

    just a heads up
