Got em! I was shitting a brick all weekend because I hadn't gotten a 2nd confirmation, or so I thought. My spam blocker filtered it out. Looking forward to a great time.
Sheffield's is great, but it's a few blocks away. Big City probably wouldn't be bad for a meet-up spot - it's literally kittykorner across the street from the Vic. I bet you could almost keep an eye on the ticket/wristband line from their front windows...
*edited to add* Sheffield's is actually a lot closer than I thought. But sounds like Big City is the pick!

I got in but thru my friends membership. server dropped out on my chance. It works out to be the perfect timing for me too, phils-cubs at 1:20, pick the tickets up at 4, drink around the vic until its time to get in line. any good bars around the vic?
Small my table, seats just 3, its not crowded, its just lucky me
oh
i can't get to my yahoo email during the day... i would of reread what they sent
thanks
No problem.
Here is the exact quote from the email:
2) Ten Club ticket distribution will begin at 4:00pm in the lobby of the
Vic Theatre. At 7:00pm, ticket distribution will move to the box office.
Tickets will be available for collection until 1/2 hour after Pearl Jam
takes the stage.

So can we head over get wristbands then head back to the bar?

I like the postive outlook on poster - but I have my doubts.
Me too but I've been to shows where they have done that. Ottawa for example. They sold merchadise next to the box office where the tickets were being given out. I got a poster at 3:00 that afternoon with my tickets. Took it to the car and didn't have to worry about it.
I am in with wife. Got mine in the cart about 2:02 eastern after punching ticket link a number of times. A bit of a sweat/delay while checking out, entering credit card, etc.
Flying from Atl on frequent flier miles at 7 am Thursday. Still looking for a hotel. I see some things opening up now. Can anyone comment on the travelodge on Harrison?
So this is what it's like to be an adult.

Got shut out on my own but my buddy got lucky and scored a pair... our agreement beforehand was that if I got a pair and he didn't, I'd take him (and vice versa).
We're taking the train out from Detroit... gets in around 4:30 on Thursday afternoon. Staying at the Hilton (gotta love being able to cash in those Hilton points for a freebie room ) over across from Grant Park on Michigan Ave., so the plan is to swing by there, check in, dump my backpack/laptop off and then hit the red line train up to the Vic.
We might have to pop into that bar before the show after we snag the wristbands... I'm gonna need a nice cold beer after that hectic travel day.

i was thinking there would be 2 lines during the day?
1 for lining up... the other for getting your bracelet?
was something like that in the 10c emails? or did i make it up?
I don't plan on getting in line to 7 at the earliest.......heard about a place called Sheffields near by might be the spot:

Wow! What a great first show!!!
I got shut out of the ticket sale as well, but a friend hooked me up with a spare, so I'm there! I still can't quite believe it...
Big City is right across the street - it's kinda sketch, but it's the closest bar. Might not be a bad place to meet up.
CHILLIN LIKE BOB DYLAN!!!
it's too bad we're not organized
we could have a nice little open bar gathering
i forget that other states don't have the same stupid laws that mass does
thanks for the info
like i said... i had heard 2nd hand that it was close... wasn't sure if it was decent
Any info on Sheffields - OK spot?
Actually is the big city place: http://cityinsights.com/chicago/bigcitytap.htm $1 Beers on Thursday http://cityinsights.com/chicago/bigcitytapmenu.htm

They start handing out bracelets at 4:00 and the doors open at 7:00. I think that's all the details they gave us.

Looks that way. I'm kind of hoping you can get a poster at 4:00 with your wristband. It would be nice to run it back to the hotel before the show.
