    I’m in!

    12 years (almost to the day) since Golden Gate Park 1995. So this time I attend with American friends and hopefully a bunch of new Euro friends. Now the wait begins.

    American tourist question, if I stay in Amsterdam, do trains run all night after the concert?



    Maybe I'll see yea on the trains. hehe The trains run late to Amsterdam but do cut off at a certain time if I remember.

    You know we probably live within a couple hours of each other and have probably been to half a dozen of the same PJ show over the years and we’ll finally meet a few thousand mile away in a different country, on a different continent. Gotta love Pearl Jam.

    Have you figured out where you’re staying yet?

    Thanks for the info and links everyone. Now I just have to figure out if I should stay in Nijmegen or Amsterdam before and after the concert.

    Ok, Dutch PJ friends, Nijmegen or Amsterdam? Which town is closer to the Heineken brewery? That’s where I’ll stay. Who’s goin’ on a Heineken tour?

    What do Dutch locals drink and where? I got first round.

    The Heineken tour is in Amsterdam. If it's the same one I did it cost 5 Euro's. You get a great tour, 3 glasses of beer along the tour and a glass in a cool heineken tin at the end. I think Nijmegen is almost 2 hrs from Amsterdam by train. I may be wrong on that. I'm still figuring out whereto stay yet. Yea it's funny we have been to alot of the the same shows. hehe Will meet ways away from home. :D

    how do you know?
    sounds reasonable though...
    Watch me make up my mind instead of my face
  • in bologna, italy, i brought my father's credit card copy and his passport copy to get the ticket.
    but it was with tickets from ticketone, not 10C.

    i send an email but they don't answer me (10C).

    You could join 10C have your friend buy the tickets and hopefully he'd be able to transfer them to you. That'd be the only way to pull it off.

    American ~> Imported European (sold in America) ~> Canadian ~> Holland ~> Belgium

    I knew I’d take a Heineken arrow from you guys, but growing up in America it was heaven after a few cases of Stroh’s.

    What beer should I try in Belgium and Holland?

    Do they brew in Denmark?

    I think that 90% of belgian beers are good, some (small brands can taste a bit dutch) If you'll go pearl jam at werchter festival it will be stella artois.
    If you're planning a beer-trip the belgium I recomment: duvel, augustijn, westvleeteren,kruger extport, hoegaarden, jupilair, corsendonck, leffe, grimbergen, karmeliet, jan van gent, primus, de koninck, westmalle, chimay, orval, rochefort, maes.
    these are the first that come to my mind :)

    Whats the capacity for the Nijmegen venue, in other words will the place sell out really fast, do I have to worry that after 5 minutes it will be sold out...like Dublin last year.
