    I think since they said meet and greet they'll have something setup. I mean... its a fundraiser for Sen. Tester, but its a PJ event to raise money for him. They'll have it setup I'm sure - I was picturing them having the PJ members (I'm guessing Jeff and maybe one other member?) at a sectioned off area and they'll bring fans through quickly to say hi and maybe do a photo. Wouldn't take too long if they keep people moving and if they have it sectioned off.

    I'm guessing too though - who knows. :)

    I think they'll have it setup so people are happy -- I can't imagine it was ever going to be the full band. That would be a logistical nightmare.

    just a rumor, as i suspected.

    here is the reply i got tonight.

    "For those that purchased tickets in June, the meet and greet is included. The tickets that were sold last week only include admission into the concert."

    they still do not know how this is going to work, it is up to the band. They will let us know when they find out.


    PEACE

    Heather from the Tester office called me today. She asked if I wanted to change my ticket to a floor seat. She said they didn't have much response from the email. I told her I and others didn't get the email. She said they didn't know much more about the m and g and were still waiting to hear from the band. She said they should be sending out more info soon.

    Cool chick. Gave me someone to chat with while loading rocks in my car at Lowes!

    I hope the Meet and Greet sucks!

    Okay, this is just the jealousy coming out from the knowledge of knowing I'll probably be alone eating a Grand Slam lunch at Missoula's Dennys Restaurant while all you knuckleheads are meeting the band.

    I can't imagine there'd be anyone willing to trade a reserved VIP seat for GA floor admission.

    She called me yesterday too, not many takers last time they asked.
    They need to offer a early early entry to the floor if someone were to switch to a ga ticket
    Otherwise you leave the m&g and then have to go stand in the ga line??
    She's going to check into it.
    Still keeping my vip seat

    weren't they supposed to mail out the tickets for the people who bought some of the 100 that were just released a week or so ago? The last 100 they had,that don't include the meet and greet?
    anyone know anything about how i get it if they don't mail it out? will call? :?

    They originally said they were going to mail out the meet and greet tix but now we have to pick them up the week of the show. I know nothing about the recent tickets sold but it could be the same case.

    I got this e-mail from Jon Tester's office last week.

    Dear Vedder_Girl77 I haven't gotten the final word yet but right now it seems unlikely that there will be the opportunity for the band to sign things or take individual pictures with guests. I'm sure as the date grows closer we'll have a better idea of how the meet and greet event will work. Thanks so much! ~monica

    Haven't gotten a call yet but I did laugh at the trade your seats for GA email. I suppose if they gave you access to camp the rail right after the meet and greet maybe someone would bite but I'd rather keep a sure seat than chance being back of the GA line.

    When she called me I asked where the reserved seats were and she said they didn't know yet. When we purchased it said 109 and 110.

    And if there is no opportunity to sign anything or take pictures, what exactly does "meet 'n' greet" even mean? And will it even happen? Mostly I bought the VIP thing for good seats, but I'm not sure we are getting as far as seats go.

    And I get spam email daily from the tester campaign :(

    Big +1. Pretty annoyed by it but we'll get a great show regardless.

    My best guess is we get handshakes. Hopefully by the whole band.

    Yes, I'm sure it will be a great show, and I can't wait!

    And handshakes would be worth it - but can't we capture the moment on film? :)

    :o Shocker!! Someone responded to my email. :shock:

    As of right now, doors to the meet and greet reception will open at 4:30 p.m. The reception will go from 5:30 to 6:30, but food and drink will be available when the doors open.
    Thanks for your patience as we try to figure things out with the band.

    It’s not much, but it’s something
