Hey guys,
I sold my tickets for tonight's show at the Garden to a scalper for $500 a piece. They were on the floor, about mid way back, so they really weren't all that great. New York has really been getting on my nerves as of late; my last trip to MSG was riddled with rude fans and annoying sing alongs. I was hoping things would change this go round, but they haven't. Taking into consideration my buddy and I are now sitting in a bar a few blocks away, hitting it off with a couple lovely ladies, I think I came out on top.
What do you guys think?

There's a constant ringing in my ears
Sense of humor's void and numb
And I'm bored to tears.......
i think you are about to have your membership revoked -
are you serious..are you even a fan??..umm what are you suppose to do at a show not sing to every song????
if you are a fan hell yeah your singing every single word,groan,growl every peep
im not to keen on the smoking that goes on but there just enjoy show 99 percent of them yes theres a few people in every venue no matter what state or city that are there and your like why do they even bother but that barely a noticeable amount
you need to really look at your self in the mirror and ask if you are a fan of this band cause even if those things you mentioned were actually issues that would not stop any true fan that has tix from going and causing them to sell them to the scum that is scalpers
And if not then lets hope he just paid 500 to get some kind of std.......but my money is on that he is bullshitting....he went even he can't deny the power of PEARL JAM

Now wave goodbye.
:wave:
i still don't understand all the complaining about newark. i had so much fun in newark... they played so many songs i've never heard live and they all sounded so good. i don't think i thought twice about the crowd until i read about it here later - i was too busy watching the stage...
and this guy- i doubt he was there. everyone that was there is way too happy to write something like this right now... i'm guessing he wanted to go but couldn't get tickets
Do you have brain damage?
im not the one that sold my pj tix because i didnt want to hear people singing the songs of the band they came to see
I go to concerts to hear the band play music, not the crowd sing.
I wasn't at the show. I sold my tickets hours ago. Thought that was already established...
That being said, we are back at the Mandrian Oriental on Columbus circle, and you're not going to believe what just happened. As the four of us entered the hotel and went to the seventh floor lobby to retrieve a lost room key, thank god the man at the desk took his merry time... cause in walked Mike and Boom. As we approached Mike and Boom to tell them how great their performance was on Thursday and what kind of experience we had at the show, security intervened and said they had to go....but Mike being the nice guy he is wanted to hear the rest of our experience... so I explained the smoking and the excessive talking and he 100% agreed and told me that he quit smoking and thought that the Garden was a non smoking venue and that the cigarettes were also bothering him. So the bodyguard basically left us with Mike and went to his room. Good for us as we were able to tell mike the rest of our story and how we sold our tickets and went to the bar (and in the process) met these two beautiful women. Mike sympathized with our experience and said he probably would have done the same under the same circumstances. He left us with a few guitar picks, took a photo with the 4 of us, and gave us a thumbs up....
And now is the part you will never believe....In walks Eddie with this huge bodyguard..We wave to Eddie and he comes over to shake our hands and we tell him that we think he is great....One of the girls asks Eddie if she can take a photo with him and he says "why don't we all take one together"... We take the photo and Ed tells the ladies that they are beautiful and that we are a couple of lucky guys...off walks Ed.....
What a great night!
I agree with all of this, but still think you should lose your membership for scalping Ten Club tickets.
Has this guy ever been to a PJ show before? Thats all I saw when i went over the pond in 08.
Only 500 bucks too? I mean at least if you were gonna sell to a tout make some decent money off them.
You missed a very fine set list but i doubt you care if you have the ability to sell PJ tickets to touts.

I enjoy skinny-skiing, going to bullfights on acid...
+1 i like u , your funny.
Plus it's against the Ten Club Rules. Revoke his membership is what I say.
But then again, I completely doubt his story is true.
Good times.
