Does anyone know about parking around Barclays Center? I went to Barklaysparking.com and thee were plenty of options that were reasonably priced. My question is this: some say "garage" and some say "surface lot". Am I to assume the garages are valet and they take your car and put it on a lift and rack and stack? Can I assume that a surface lot is one that I drive into and park my car...and tailgate for a bit? They all say arrival up to 2 hours prior and I'm coming from CT so I'd like to come a little early and drink a few beers before the show.
I got parking for both nights at 63 Rockwell, the surface lot. I'm not sure about tailgating...never been there. But I'm packing a cooler. Especially if beer is $12 inside. May check out the Wishlist party if there early enough and also the merch booth. Coming from CT too and just waiting to see when bf is getting out of work. Hope to be at lot by 4:30 when it should be opening. I called to see if we could park earlier but no one answered....
Not much help, but I went with a surface lot.
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
Thanks I just reserved a spot in a surface lot on Pacific. Don't think we will be tailgating but a few quick ones before the show. Does anyone know who the opening acts are? Also got tickets for Hartford and hope they have some good new acts with them.

We got shitty posters (sorry for the people who like them, just not my cup of....art) but I think PJ is gonna tear the doors off of Barclay
I actually love the posters, and the story on the back is great.
really stoked to see the guys next to the neighborhood I grew up in.
Hopefully a ticket can be bought for Friday ...
trying to shake the cancer off, stupid human beings ...
SO pumped for this. First time in the Big Apple, meeting a bunch of my buddies from Newfoundland, and Pearl Jam is gonna blow up Brooklyn. See you guys at the pre-show!
"It makes much more sense, to live, in the present tense."
If anyone still needs them, I have 2 tickets to night 2 in section 206 that I'd like to sell for face value. With fees, they cost me $91.80 a piece. PM me if interested.
Parking at Barclay is limited, mostly small lots that charge between $20 and $40 depending on how close you are to Barclay's. Take mass transit if possible.

Also, if you drive around the more residential surrounding neighborhoods (I'm a former Park Sloper), you should easily be able to find a spot on any of the cross streets between 4th and 5th Avenues (south of Atlantic / Flatbush). There is a ton of street parking within easy walking distance to the arena.
So taking the subway home from work listening to LB on my iPod and it suddenly hit me like a bolt of lightning! The next time I hear PJ singing these songs, it will be LIVE in Brooklyn! Woo hoo!
I escaped it...a life wasted...I'm never going back again

recent interview with vedder:
Huffington Post: Let's move to something a little bit lighter then: Do you have a favorite concert memory, or have you played so many that it's old hat by now?
VEDDER: I don't think we're that confident, but it can be the crowds. That's always the variable, but -- to be honest -- they're pretty consistent. [During the July 8, 2003 Madison Square Garden concert], the stage started bouncing. First you think it's a train, and then it continues and you think it's an earthquake. Then you're looking around at people on the side, your crew members, like, "What the fuck is going on?" You can get the stage to bounce in that room. I wonder if it happens at Barclays? I wonder.
You guys, and all the spots on this tour are in for real treats.
I went to both shows in Worcester.
There was some concern that after a show with 32 songs lasting 3 hours, night 2 would be less energetic.
How could 50 year olds pull that off two nights in a row.
There was talk of Eddie having a cold.
Well.....Worcester 2 was everybit was energetic and spirited as Worcester 1, unique in it's own way, but no less awesome.
That makes me think that these guys are going all out, 100%, every show, every night.
Don't get caught up on # of songs or length of shows. Worcester 1 was 3 hours and 32 songs. Worcester 2 was 2.5 hours and 30 songs. Worcester 2 felt as long or longer than night 1. You'll get your money's worth and then some. The breaks were so friggin quick, just enough to grab a drink and take a leak. The talking was perfect, not too long, funny and meaningful. The show is so jam packed with music that it will blow you minds.
You are in for a treat. Enjoy every moment.
For those unable to attend these shows, you should know that the bootlegs are going to be so awesome, covering so many songs. Also, they have to be producing a tour movie because the quality of the footage shown on the big screens is absolutely incredible. It's highly stylized, black and white, then color with great angles and subtle effects. It's not your normal concert coverage. So I have to assume we'll see something like TB2000.
We are all so fortunate to be part of this experience!

I am sort of speechless with anticipation for tonight as I sit here at work not able to concentrate. However, have I got a little story for you that I need to share because it has to be some sort of sign: when I left my house (in Port Washington) this morning around 6 am for my daily walk to the train, half-asleep I looked down at the harbor and saw this GIGANTIC full moon illuminating the bay. The relevant part of this story: the moon was an intense shade of yellow. A true YELLOW MOON. I texted my wife because I had to share with someone; she wrote back "you're insane". It's probably true when it comes to PJ, but I can't help it. We watched a little PJ20 last night and I drank my last "Faithful Ale" that I have been saving for the right occasion. Today's the day - let's shake the earth Brooklyn & beyond (it seems like people are coming from all over the world for these shows). For anyone looking for a pre-show spot, my friends and I will be at 4th Ave Pub (a couple blocks from the arena) starting around 6 pm. I'll be in the black Clash T-Shirt and my best Canadian tuxedo. Disclaimer: I'm not sure if that term is derogatory to Canadians, and if so, my apologies and know that all I have is love for our northerly neighbors.

Oh darn I was hoping they'd have a Coney Island theme or something, like Pearl Jam on the Parachute Jump or Eddie surfing off the pier!
What do they look like?
there is an underground lot across the street under the supermarket. also a few open air lots around there.
