    Hopefully they're changing it from a really shitty site to a good one!

  • I just checked their site out a few hours ago, it's a lot nicer and more user friendly. I feel like I got screwed in pre-sale tickets for a show in PA their doing. Everything about the pre-sale contradicted their ticket policy. Hopefully I can get tickets for when they go on sale to the public.

    You probably know this already, but don't give up if you don't pull tickets immediately. I often get the "no tickets currently available" page when I first go on for tickets and if I keep trying, I normally am able to pull at least one, if not two tickets.

    Having purchased many tickets off TM/Live Nation, I'm becoming more and more convinced now that they release tickets in waves, so I normally try for at least 30 minutes before giving up. An hour if I REALLY want to go. And closer to the dates tickets seem to drop sometimes. Was able to score a ticket to the NYC Irving Plaza show last night a few hours before the show :mrgreen::mrgreen:

    Good luck!

It will take place today and will air on Pearl Jam Radio, channel 22, on Friday, November 16 at 6:00 pm ET."

    This. Is. Awesome. Love SG, Love Taylor Hawkins! :D

    Any word on the lyrics?
    They seem dark, like going through a bad time.
    What are your thoughts?

    Man, struck out again on another presale. If anyone can help out with 2 for Philly tomorrow it would be appreciated.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    What was the deal with this one? I have the Live Nation app and am on their mailing list, but didn't see anything about a password.

    When I got on to LN's site, there were 5 different presales going on. That seems a little excessive for a 3,119 seat capacity theatre.

    Did anyone get presale for Chicago?

    Anyone trying tomorrow for Chicago?


    I did not try on Monday for the pre-sale - probably would have been a wasted effort the way it sounds. But I will try tomorrow. I had to check hotel prices, travel prices, etc before committing. But it looks like Chicago in January will be pretty cheap.......... and pretty cold too!

    I like it more and more especially after watching the Youtube of their Lettermen performance.
    I regret posting negatively earlier.
    I guess it doesn't impact you like their previous albums, it grows slowly on you.

    You know I listen to the album and watch the Letterman concert and all I can think is....this band broke up in 1997 and here they are back in 2012 and they haven't missed a step.....its blows my mind how good this band still is and how unreal this new album is.....by far in my opinion one of the best rock albums released in the last 10 years. I havent loved an album this much since " Avacado" .

    Yep it sure sounds like they have not missed a step, a nice progression from Down on the upside.

  • "Rowing" is one of the coolest bass riffs I've heard in a while
  • Is anyone going to the Upper Darby show in PA? If so, any lucky with pre-sale or public sale that just started today?
