All right, so it's September 8th, and still no official word from the Bridge School on tickets, performers, etc. All we know is that it's going down at Shoreline on October 21st and 22nd, with (according to Hyper Rust) an all-star cast of past Bridge School performers.
My question is this: how expensive have tickets been in the past (per day)? I need to set aside cash, because, by the time Uncle Neil gets around to releasing tix, I probably won't have much time to think about whether or not I can afford them.

Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
thank you, speedy.
Find shapes in the clouds.
Hear the murmur of the wind
and touch the cool water.
Walk softly,
we are intruders,
tolerated briefly
In an infinite universe.
Lineup announced so far (according to a news reporter...not on the official site):
Neil Young
Brian Wilson
Pearl Jam
Dave Matthews Band
Foo Fighters
Trent Reznor (wow)

Possible Petty appearance on Sunday...just a hunch.

Dave Matthews Band, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters to play Bridge School concert
TICKETS GO ON SALE SEPT. 17

The lineup for the 20th annual Bridge School benefit concerts will feature major headliners, including the Dave Matthews Band, Pearl Jam and the Foo Fighters.
Neil Young, the event's founder and regular host, will also take the stage during the two shows, set for Oct. 21 and 22 at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View. Other acts will include former Beach Boy Brian Wilson, Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor, indie-pop darlings Death Cab for Cutie and lo-fi folk champ Devendra Banhart. More guests are expected to be announced in the weeks to come. Tickets for the shows go on sale at 10 a.m. next Sunday (Sept. 17) at Ticketmaster outlets.
Many of the featured acts are veterans of prior Bridge School benefits. Notably, Pearl Jam has performed at four concerts and the band's lead singer, Eddie Vedder, played the show as recently as 2004. The Dave Matthews Band hit the Bridge stage in 1997 and 2000 and Matthews made an appearance without his regular band mates last year.
The concerts are held to help raise money for the San Francisco Bay Area-based Bridge School, which serves students with severe speech and physical impairments. The concerts have taken place every year at Shoreline since 1986, except for 1987, when no concert was held, and 1988, which was held at Oakland Arena.
I saw from previous years that Pearl Jam played on both dates, does anyone know if that is usually how it goes or if they will only be playing 1 date?
Neil alone is reason enough to go anyway
