    Since Eddie is performing at that benefit on Saturday, I wonder if the band will attend on Monday instead.

    Or maybe the band minus Eddie on Saturday. Or, like was mentioned, he could boot it down to the Princess of Whales for 2pm.

    What benefit is Eddie performing at?

    It's a private charity function that starts at 11:30 and goes to 3:30. My guess is he'll be there to perform a few songs at the beginning and then high-tail it to the theatre. The invite said "special guest performance by Eddie Vedder and others" so if he goes on at the beginning, he would have plenty of time to get there.

    It's a high-roller charity benefit at a rich guy's mansion in Toronto. My friend's brother is going because his girlfriend works with the host of the party. Bastard.

    It's rare, unless it's a gala or a relatively unknown actor/director, that anyone other than a TIFF organizer would speak before the movie. If Cameron Crowe and/or the band show up, they don't need to arrive at the theatre until the movie ends at 4pm.


    Why would they attend for the ending? do you think they would speak after the movie?

    I just heard that PJ20 TIFF tickets are going for $350 each...

    WTF is wrong with people? I only managed to get 1 single so it's really nice to know that people who aren't fans managed to grab multiple so they are able to flip them on craigslist.

    This is one of those things where I wish 10c had a few to sell via a lottery. I know they can't get a piece of everything but it just sucks to see some people will be missing out because others capitalize on being slimy.

    You're from Toronto, as am I, so I'm sure you know that most people at TIFF are people who buy packages of 5, 10, 20 or more movies long before the schedule comes out. These often just include a random selection of films unless you get a "theme" pack (e.g. foreign films, documentaries, etc.). So I'm sure there are hundreds and hundreds of people who got tickets to the premiere that don't give a shit about Pearl Jam and just want to make some money.
