    I just think it's interesting that none of these European Tour threads are being locked like the mods did when the rumors were flying about this past year's tour. What does that mean? That's it's NOT true?

    OR....they just said FUCK IT!let the clowns dance! :mrgreen:

    Maybe re the items to buy but seriously, does anyone who comes here daily wait to buy those things just before xmas or not? I recall with the ames book there was a mad panic and initially the orange book sold out very fast. so if you waited you were screwed. Im sure that was december too, either way right in the xmas build up....and likewise for the ten box - the angle was buy it now and you may get one signed....how many of us didnt do that? seriously. The point I'm trying to make is they were irtems of large expense - for us generally both cost us around $200 including shipping. Thats a lot of dough at that time of year.
    I bought my Ames book on November 2nd. But, I was pretty surprised when I was on my honeymoon last year, logged in from Thailand and saw the Ten box for sale mid December!

    I've noticed over the years that they frequently like to get an influx of cash right before the end of the year. :geek:

    Do you ever remember Pearl Jam selling 10club presale ticket's during the holiday's? Day's before Christmas?

    '08, Ed solo ticket's went on sale for April show's in Feburary. What i'm understanding is there will be many, many (unoffical) European show dates this summer, yet again. And everybody is saying May/June/July, right? Places are booked, festivals are already booking acts. Do you think, Pearl Jam will be doing pre-sale 10club ticket's right now, during the holiday's, when the show's are happening 5-6+ month's down the road?

    "Here are the latest rumors from the PearlJam.com forums, first here is a post by an Irish member named stankratz:"

    Tickets are going on general sale on December 11th, so it won’t be long til an announcement now!

    Are you kidding me? Kat post's 'tour' in a sentence, posted in the tech forum where say 99% of fan's don't visit each day, and you got full blown tour out of this, new's this Friday & 10club ticket's on sale next Monday?

    They just finished the Australian/NZ tour last week. They already played Europe August '09 for a few show's, Official Bootlegs were just released a few weeks ago on those European show's. Now you're saying 10club ticket's go on sale next week, for more European show's, that's gonna happen in 5+ month's? Mama mia!!!

    Where's my green tea latte? :|


    I agree with everything except your rampant abuse of the apostrophe. Never, ever, ever use apostrophes for plurals.

    Sorry, just one of my pet hates.

    Anyway, I wouldn't expect any tour announcement before the end of the year.
    93: Slane
    96: Cork, Dublin
    00: Dublin
    06: London, Dublin
    07: London, Copenhagen, Nijmegen
    09: Manchester, London
    10: Dublin, Belfast, London & Berlin
    11: San José
    12: Isle of Wight, Copenhagen, Ed in Manchester & London x2

    i didnt notice the punctuation abuse but now its pointed out....

    anyway back to the tour, i think a tour announcement is unlikely too imminently but as soon as the festivals announce their headliners expect PJ to have to spill the beans....and if thats soon then just maybe

    If those festival show's are announcing headliners tonight or next week, by all means post away who'll be there & when ticket's go on sale. But 10club tickets, for a summer tour, I would say late March/April! imo.
  • In regards to the "they didn't lock the thread so it must/must not be true" posts, I wonder how privy Kat and the like actually are to the inside information. If you think about it, management has to set a time frame for touring, check availability, clear the dates with the band, and book the venues before a concert can even be confirmed. Do you think Kat and the mods are in the know during all these steps, or do they just get the "hey, we booked a bunch of European dates for June, prepare yourself for a ten club sale next week"?

    it's would be great if they gave a little more notice before presales. being completely off credit cards now it would be great to have time to get a paycheck before the sales start :D

    I've heard stories of people not doing Christmas, or buying a tree, not doing Festivus, not traveling to their parents for the holiday's cause they are online waiting for 10club ticket's for Europe (show's to happen may, june, july) which is rumored to go down, December 11th? :shock:

    if people are seriously doing that they need their fuckings head looked at... or chopped off.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
