    Instead of Wrigley, what if they just went across the street and played a gig at the Metro! :shock:

    This would be incredible!! Dare to dream...

    nevermind the pisser situation

    You will forget the Alpine situation when you see the Wrigley situation, unless you like troughs.

    you are confused.

    wrigley is miles ahead of alpine. alpine you have to climb a hill...to wait in line to use a port a potty....

    wrigly, you are in and out in the amount of time it takes you to pee.

    Wrigley isn't miles ahead of anything. If you think you are going to walk in and walk out at Wrigley you are sadly mistaken. It may happen like that at a half filled baseball game but it wouldn't here. Those bathrooms at Wrigley are smaller than my bedroom.

    Half-filled baseball game? Have you ever actually been there? The troughs are fine as long as you don't have stage fright.

    Which bands out there could sell out these stadiums?
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I've been there a few times actually and the bathrooms are terrible.

  • you poor chicago people

    us bostonians went through this shit for 10 years

    theo runs the baseball team that plays in wrigley

    he does not run wrigley

    he may know some people... but he doesn't know enough people

    nor does he care..... he'd rather see a show in South America then to see one in the venue where he works and has to deal with every ahole fan with an opinion of how he should do his job


    the bottom line is... if it's going to make money... and the neighborhood is cool with it... then pearl jam will play fenway and/or wrigley

    I actually ran into Theo last summer (his pulled up right next to my car in the big lot accross from Copperfields). He was very cool and it was the day before Ed's show in Boston. I asked him if he was going to the show, and we ended up talking about Ed, PJ and the uke album. At the end of the conversation i asked him when PJ was going to play Fenway. Theo said, "I know, I know...This was actually the first year that the Red Sox approached the band about playing (and had all the approvals), and that they couldn't work it out with the bands schedule". He then said it was an absolute embarrassment that New Kids on the block played Fenway before PJ.

    So if they can play Fenway, IMO, they can play Wrigley. I know that the Red Sox are starting to book multiple acts in one year, so I would say that they are closer to playing Fenway than Wrigley. However, I do not know the music situation at Wrigley with hosting concerts, so that is a guess on my part. If they do play Wrigley, I will be taking a road trip for sure!

    i went to two of the three yankees vs cubs games this past summer and those were record breaking attendance games.

    still in and out of the bathrooms in a matter of minutes.

    Wrigley bathrooms aren't classy but I could care less how fancy a toilet is...I'd be going to watch a game/concert. PJ could sell out Wrigley with an decent opener...I can see them doin it

    Which bands out there could sell out these stadiums?

    Wrigley isn't as big as most people think of when talking a stadium tour so for a one off it's hard to say, but some bands that could do stadium tours......

    U2, Stones, The Boss, AC/DC, McCartney, Metallica




    What's the general reaction to droppin a deuce in the troughs?
