EDDIE VEDDER ANNOUNCES AUSTRALIAN SOLO TOUR

lostrocker815

all I did do was start the petition and I wish I could do more but I cant, I've spread the word, Iv sent heaps of emails to radio stations and tv stations all to no reply. I cant do much more, Iv got crappy internet at the moment so its hard to get on here. IF I lived in some place like Auckland I could do more by getting out on the street and spreading the word but I dont. Trust me, where I live, no ones even heard of Pearl Jam

So yeah, Iv done what I can, If i dosent work then thats fine.

And I just want to say, I am happy for all you australians. I'm not going to complain too much and ruin your fun. I hope you all have a great time seeing Ed

Were any other Perthians stupid enough to buy Adelaide tickets incase Eddie didn't come to Perth? And there is absolutley no way I can transfer these tickets to another 10c member is there :oops:

That's right. You have to be there to collect the tickets yourself and show photo ID.

I was not stupid enough to buy Adelaide tix, I got Sydney and Melbourne. If I knew Ed was coming would have only done Sydney, maybe not at all if there were 2 Perth shows, oh well

i don't want to be a downer but there is still nothing officially confirmed, just a few weak quotes from Chugg not really confirming anything.

so i wouldn't go tearing up those other tickets just yet. it still may not happen.

Yes, but for newcastle. If 10C had mentioned in the initial announcement that there was going to be Perth show but they were waiting for details, then no, i wouldn't have bought tickets for over east. I might write them an email, i know they wont budge, but it's worth a try.

i see several names on the perth petition and their are familiar as out of wa

ive signed it

hope you guys get your nz shows

everyone deserves a good ed gig!

Pony, I know you're smart enough to get a decent petition going. YOU know it too. Team that with your artistic ability and it could be an awesome campaign!

So why don't you? What is holding you back from fighting for it?

because i know that in reality it won't make a difference. ask scott.

Who the fuck is Scott?

Why are you so sure it won't make a difference? Perth has had previous petitions that worked. Newcastle too.

Fuck I hate defeatists. :x

That would be me. I helped put together a petition in late 2002 for PJ to come to NZ as part of their 2003 Riot Act tour. Got a few thousand signatures, media attention etc but it didnt work out. Put plenty of my own time/money into it, but hey thats cool, these things happen.

I think that is what she is referring to.

Yeah I think i'll do the same, just so maybe in future they can let us know if other city shows are planned to be announced later...

Well there you go. I don't know why, if in fact they did have plans to go to Perth, that they couldn't have said it from the start, save the Perth people a lot of time and money not buying east coast tickets they wouldn't have if they knew he was coming to Perth.

But I feel it was a last minute addition after the complaints and emails to chugg.

I think the right thing for ten club to do would be to exchange tickets for people from Perth who now don't want to travel.

I 100% agree.....and those exchanged ten club tickets should go back into circulation.

*Raises hand for a set of Melbourne 2 tix no one wants anymore*

Yeah i emailed ten club asking if I could exchange, or at least put the tickets back up and I'll fight for Perth tickets myself. Nooooooot gonna happen though

BLAKEALIVE

Perth show to be announced???? just smashed my savings on flights ect to melbourne.........

OK just read last posts. this has not been organised very well... WA was definitely going to kick up a fuss not being included in the tour. and if ed is coming then he can play at my house just should have confirmed before we all threw realism into the wind. its just going to be hard not buying tickets to hometown show. disappointed that I'm going to waste $ getting over east. but it will still be worth it.... very confused :?
wife = :roll:

HOLA AMAZING PEARL JAM 10C CREW

ever so greatful and happy that perths official and added

any idea when presale will be

i dont care where or when
ill be there
just need tickets now

squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel

beachy

That's great news for those in Perth and South East Asia. Living in Singapore, it would have been much easier for me (and my family) to fly into Perth, but instead I bought tickets for the Brisbane concerts and have already booked flights. It's great to see they will listen to the fans and schedule a show, even as an afterthought.

I reckon it is AWESOME!! Not only have I got tix for the ACT ( which I'll trade 1 for a Newcastle), but I also get to see them HERE!!!!

What morgage?? :?
