    It doesnt seem like anyone is brave enough to have a show that early... although there is a show a few days later. :)

    Too late for a bigger venue. That's all there is to it. Let's start looking at theaters or smaller venues. If Neil wasn't at the Palace in Albany, I would say it could be there.

    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

  • May 18th is a month away. I think there's plenty of time to announce the date, put tix on sale and sellout most or about 85% of the show.

    I think if they announce Tweeter this week they'll sellout the first 6 sections and a ton of lawn stuff right away, especially if lawn is around $40.

    I checked the other day and only pairs I could pull were behind the stage... they could sell out 80%+ of a second show at the Garden still without a problem - its not like a HUGE % of tickets are going to be unsold because there wasn't an extra 10 days of on-sale time. You'll get the initial surge at the on-sale, some sales until the show and probably a surge as its almost there of people deciding to go as its almost time.

    And the odds are great that if they were going to do a smaller club show they would have announced it already. I realize they don't need to plan it out months in advance since its so much smaller, but they're probably not going to wait until 2-3 weeks before either I would imagine.

    If they did a club show my bet is it would be 10C only, and they wouldn't have to announce it until a couple days before (remember the Vic?)

    Hence the problem, ask any promoter and they will tell you it is the last 10-20% of ticket sales where the profit lies. Big venue is OUT !

    If that's the case PJ isnt making a dime in almost any city except NY... :)

    Pearl Jam ALWAYS gets paid. It is the promoter who will be out the bucks. There is no doubt that when tours are planned, the promoters and the venues know beforehand that they will not make any money on tickets in some venues. They hope for concession and follow up business for less expensive shows for profits. Booking an act like PJ is prestigious and good for luring other big names into the place, a sort of loss leader.

    the John Tester for senate concert in missoula, mt - 2005 i think - was a bit less than a month between announcement and concert, but it wasn't the normal 10C situation though. i got tix thru a friend, and i have no idea how he scored them (7th row center btw - it was unreal).

    i think that doesn't count... because they knew there would be a crowd there anyway?
