    I called the 10C and spoke to a woman (Kat?) about my idea for the Pearl Jam Whaler's shirt idea. She said she's not sure if they're doing a sports theme this time, but she said to e-mail the 10C about my idea and to see if they can pass it along to the company that makes shirts for the shows. I'm about to e-mail them now about that. Let's hope they get back to me. I explained to the woman that the Whalers were the only professional sports team CT ever had and it sounded like she liked my idea.

    Oh my god. I would be all over one of these.

    Rock out to Brass Bonanza opener in my PJ Whalers shirt? I got chills just thinking about this. Love it!

    they shoulda played the Arena at Harbor YArd in Bridgeport. Then I could have walked from my office to Ralph & Richie's for dinner, then walked across the street to the show.

    Plus we have the best ganga in the state in the Port. :lol:

    Yea I booked the Hilton- nice just a skywalk away and it looks real nice- a nice lobby bar - I like to check out the necessities ;)
    AAA discount made it not too bad 110 plus tax
    the flights in were a bit pricey from Atl but no Boston traffic and 2 hour drive so worth it I guess. Feel oh so lucky to have gotten Hartford 5/15/2010! I like the looks of that!

    Have they ever played the Xl Center? I am surprised they are not playing Mohegan Sun instead. I am not complaining as I live closer to Hartford.

    Nope and thank god no Mohegan. From Waterbury, that's a good hour to hour and a half.


    HEY, I'm originally from the Dirty Water myself - carpool and preparty together???!!


    ha ha i love it, the dirty water. i am subbing an adult education class in the heart of good ole wtby as i type this. i am kinda new to this forum but a 15 year fan club member. went to the halloween show, and tailgated with some fans beforehand, we had a blast. are you both still in waterbury? maybe we can grab a few drinks over the next month. carpooling is also a good suggestion. ha its so weird to see "waterbury" on the internet and not have it connected to drugs, violence, or poverty. good on ya, 'bury!

    YES! WOO HOO!! I remember in one of the threads months ago when we were wondering about the US east coast dates and were hoping for a Hartford date, I remember saying, "The XL Center would be cool for them to play." There were other people who agreed. Can't wait! The only thing that'll make that night be awesome if they have Whaler shirts with Pearl Jam on them! That would make the night for me.


    One time, at band camp....
    :D
