I love hearing from the bitter East Coasters that its in Wisconsin......more room for us...glad you're not comin

I'm not an east coaster and Wisconsin is bullshit. It makes it way to expensive for me to attend. flight to milwaukee or chicago for labor day weekend + rental car + every hotel in a 20 mile radius already being booked.... fuck that.

I'm going to hold out for rumored shows in Montreal and Toronto... spend some time with good friends in a city - not in butfuck nowhere wisconsin - where i have access to things like public transit so I can get loaded at the show and not worry about driving out of there, a free place to stay, and plenty of awesome bars.

Sounds like DMB20 might be a better fit for you.

After reading 9 pages of BS and people slagging each other off on a thread that confirms NOTHING, I can't wait to see what you all put when the weekend actually does get confirmed.

After reading this, I don't see Alpine Valley as the answer.

http://gazettextra.com/news/2011/mar/01/camping-okd-alpine-valley/

Shaw needed town and county approvals for a campground of 75 sites located in the green lot, east of the ticket sales booth.

deputies would be on site 24 hours a day when the campground is occupied.

Campground rules include no barefoot walking, no campfires, lights out at 2 a.m., no charcoal grilling, no vending or fireworks, no pets and no glass bottles or kegs.

Attendance at any concert shall not exceed 35,600.

-- Concerts should normally end at 11 p.m. but never go beyond midnight.

-- If a concert with multiple artists is eight hours or more, concerts cannot be scheduled the day before or the day after.

A surcharge of $1.90 will be attached to each ticket to pay for extra police protection, traffic control and refuse collection.

very, VERY interesting sir!!!!!!!!!!! after reading this i don't think Alpine will be the place either...unless they are willing to let PJ break the rules.....but by the sound of it, WI is a fucking police state!! doesn't sound like the place for a PJ fest to me.

Dude- this is why you don't camp here.

Plus, extra police protection will consist of rent-a-pigs consisting of no more than 15 people for the entire Elkhorn area.

TWENTY years of following this band around the country... i believe nothing until tickets and dates and shows are officially announced... even then the stuff doesnt always happen!!! I've had tickets "going on sale" and the onsale date changed that day... as i stood outside a "sock store" that had a TM vendor inside... in the dead of winter!!! (loooong time ago...) HELL! I've had tickets in hand and hotels and flights booked.... and shows canceled when i was at the airport... it's all good though... it's all part of the ride.....

wherever it is... i'll be there...

PJ20!!

It's likely they have these dates reserved at Alpine however it is very likely that they have the same dates reserved at 2 other venues as well. Jeff specifically said that Kelly Curtis is travelling to all the possible locations in late March to collect all info needed and then when every band member gets together in April they will decide on the location. Sounds to me like it is far from official. Wish we knew what the other 2 venues were!

+1
And it could just be for regular PJ shows, and not the "festival." Alpine, or any other amphitheater where only a small percentage of 10C members could get up close seems like a bad choice for celebrating the 20th anniversary IMHO.

And the jail gets the schedule so that they have enough staff and empty cells when Ozzfest rolls through town

This is gonna sound weird but here goes.....the jail up that way gets the show schedule way in advance (not sure why) but its always been accurate...another source is a friend who is a guard and is saying the same thing....take it for what its worth....and its expensive

got any ideas on just how expensive? (ticket cost)?

Really?
Really...

Do you really think youre going to take a shit on the rest of our birthday cakes by saying things like that? Does it make you feel less shitty in doing so? Knowing you're going to miss an amazing, once in a lifetime event, put on by a band we love and fully support?

Why do you feel the need to even spew your madness? You just look like a fool... A fucking fool that is going to miss out on memories and great times with fans.

This!!!

I could give two shits where this is gonna happen, b/c all the cool peeps like the following who are super-psyched to attend this once-in-a-lifetime event: the dude in SD who NEVER gets a show in his backyard so he goes to the mountain; our good friend Dimi and the rest of our friends across the big pond who aren't getting PJ20 on their soil; and last but not least, Jen for reminding me that wherever this event occurs, no one is shitting on my cake b/c I will be there!

Anyone else remember how hard it was to get tickets in 1996 (ok, dating myself a little here)? You think getting tickets for 35,600-capacity venue is gonna be hard? PLEASE! Try getting a ticket to a 5,000-capacity Savage Hall in Toledo OH!

Oh, and the term Randy BoBandy is looking for isn't Buttf#ck Wisconsin...it's Wisbumblef#ck.

More than you are probably expecting. They will definitely be more expensive per show than any other PJ show. Especially if there are other top headlining acts involved.

haha. yep. I remember going to a mall in 98 at 4 am to wait in line for TM booth to open, being 5th in line and waiting for hours. Those were the days. and still got shitty seats but snuck up after the show started and some guy gave me the seat beside him up close... Still have the gap carpenter jeans I wore to that show--complete with the hole in the knee that resulted when the show started and I wasn't in my seat yet, carrying two beers--I start running--tripped and fell putting a hole in my jeans in the knee--and didn't spill hardly a drop of the beers!

not good. I don't really know what to expect. I mean like $300 is much different than $1500 know what I'm saying.

I like how everyone who lives within an hour drive of this thing thinks everyone else is bitter about it. No hate or disrespect implied (I can only speak for myself) on this one. I would just rather see Ed solo close to home and *hopefully* PJ as a whole in Boston as well by the end of the year. God forbid I have an opinion :roll:

I live 14 hours away and am killing myself to be there. Then I think of the people on the other side of the ocean who want to be there, too, so I'm not bitchin.
