    are pj and jay really both playing both nights???? that would be insane

    yeah, it really would be. i dunno if it's true. i've read Jay night 1, PJ night 2. but then a friend showed me where some UK news site said PJ closes Saturday and Jay closes Sunday. but even that could technically mean Saturday night = Jay then PJ; Sunday night = PJ then Jay.

    i think it's hard to say until it's announced officially. if it's not true, i'm still glad i'm going. if it's true, then it's a gift.

    CNN says PJ are only performing on one of the two days....I think it's best to wait for formal announcements since there is so much conflicting information.

    i wonder if sites post conflicting info like this just to get site hits. cuz it's all over the map. are these sites getting legitimate, but conflicting leaks? or do they know just as much as we do, and are just posting b.s. about the line-up to get clickthroughs? hmmm....

    til an official announcement, no one knows. i agree.

    the official announcement from the 10 Club clearly stated 'DATE and TIME' to be announced. nothing plural. they are only playing one night...and 90% it's sunday night people.

    Just a heads up if you are going - Philly hotels are quite pricey. You may want to go grab something soon - I'd expect the lower priced places that are near the show location will fill up quickly.

    actually the best move is to wait until 3 weeks before the show, or sometimes even the week of, and search hotwire. that's when you get the best deals. i usually make 3-4 hotel trips to philly every year, and this strategy always works, no matter what kind of event is going on. usually i'll get a 4 star hotel in the city for less than $150 bucks. but you could even do better than that money-wise; i just like to have a nice bed.

    i dont think rage would play a "budweiser made in america festival"... i would have said the same thing about pearl jam 10 years ago... not saying they are sell outs or anything by any stretch for playing it, but its pretty clear some things are changing

    i can tell you this though, the day they license a pearl jam song for a corporate tv commercial, i will gladly drop my 10c membership...

    Yes, but $153 is the price with fees, the base price is $135. Didn't you really pay $115? I think it's better to compare apples to apples, no? (Better for me anyway, because I got the tickets for $153 and I don't feel as bad knowing that the difference in price is smaller than what you posted. :shifty: :) )

    I prefer comparing apples to oranges. Better yet, bananas to pears!

    I have one doubt: The only people who can stay near to the stage (i'm talking about the front row) is the ones that have the VIP Package ? Or if a buy a normal ticket, and get early in the festival, could i be in the front row ?

    Or even in american festivals have the boring way of "reserved seating" ?

    I don't know how it's going to be set up at the Philly Festival, but at the Atlanta Festival you can definitely get a good spot if you get there early. The VIPs get the side view of the stage, so if you are there early enough you can get a much better spot than the VIPs. :)

    I did say I didn't know what was the set up like for Philly. :) Thaislopes mentioned "American Festivals" (in plural), so I decided to mention Atlanta just because this was one festival I knew more about.

    I know, I know... this is not the Atlanta thread but I still mentioned it. :mrgreen:

    Was really excited to hear Pearl Jam is playing Philly again BUT.....
    This whole thing feels rushed and there are A LOT of unanswered questions:
    Is Pearl Jam playing both days?
    If not, what day are they playing?
    Will single day tickets be available?
    Tickets are onsale before the artist list is complete....seriously?
    And what is this B.S. of tickets getting more expensive as the show gets closer?
    There was no indication that the $99 tickets were limited to a presale ONLY and you had to go to Budweiser's facebook page( great if was a 20y.o. college student - how about an email Ten Club?)
    The price jumped 50% literally over night and it's gonna jump up again and AGAIN without notification.
    How the hell are you supposed to plan for this with SOOOO MANY unknowns?
    The official website is LACKING at best.
    WTF?
