  • We're coming down from CT. Even if I thought I didn't want to go, when the day came and I knew they were only 2 1/2 hours or so away there is no way I could stay home- Plus we love Philly and of course will use any excuse to get a cheese steak!! Wouldn't miss it. Especially as it's my only opportunity this year.[/quote]
    might be coming from CT. Haven't bought a ticket yet though and might just go solo.[/quote]

    C'mon down. Hang out with us at the pre party :)http://www.cometotheporch.net/2012/05/pj-party-party-at-made-in-america.html

    I need to get a hotel :evil:

    How much of a hassle will it be to get to a hotel 2 miles away in this area?

  • I am coming from Des Moines IOWA!
    have to see PJ at least once a year - and pretty excited to see Jay Z so close to his own backyard.
    Also i loved Philly when i was there for the Spectrum shows -- added bonus i am bringing my sister (who has never flown or seen a concert other than country music) and my buddy who went to his first PJ show in 2010 (this will be his 5th)

    new prediction -- DeAngelo sings Indifference with the fellas :geek:

    Two miles away shouldn't be that bad, but something right in town or on the Parkway I'm sure would be a pain in the ass.

    I would advise getting a hotel walking distance to one of the train lines. That way you do not have to drive in. The PATCO line might be your best bet. You could get a cheaper hotel across the water in Jersey, and take a 10 minute train ride in to 8th & Market then walk to the show (about 15-20 minutes.)

    Keep in mind, check return train times. Unlike NYC, our trains do not run all night.

    I want to come down from CT too. I haven't seen PJ since Bridge 2010 and am jonesing for a show. I have a friend in NE Philly that I can stay with so I would park at his place & use public transportation to the 10C preshow meetup. When will the lineups for each day be announced? Will one-day tickets be available? I'm not a Jay-Z fan so would only go on the day PJ is playing.
    I will need to check into train/bus times to see when I have to leave the area to get back to my friend's place after the show.
    You see me empty, Sir, do not pause and inquire, simply assume and refill.

    Thats accurate, I wasnt saying its offical, but just what i read. Mike also said in an interview that they were playing the second night. So judging from both sides saying there playing different nights, i would put a great deal of stock into it.

    I've heard there are a ton of tickets left for Bruce night 2, I suppose since it's Labor Day and everyone has to go to work the next day. So hopefully the tix will be dirt cheap as we get closer. I already have my ticket for this night but like everyone waiting for the PJ announcement as to whether I will buy night one as well. These are gonna be two special nights for Bruce fans and just a fantastic weekend for Bruce & PJ fans.

    Based on this article on RollingStone.com it looks like Jay Z i going to do night one, which leaves Sunday for Pearl Jam. I just wish it would be officially announced :)
