My two brothers and I had the high pleasure of experiencing the band in Oakland on 11.26.13

We are 10C and stood about 10 people deep from center stage. It was an incredible experience - damn near spiritual - up until early in the first encore (right before Last Kiss) when our youngest brother collapsed. It was terrifying.

The crew got him out of there fast. Initially we thought it was more serious that it was, we spent the rest with the incredible medical volunteers making sure he was OK (there were some odd EKG readings that had us concerned).

After much thought and Thanksgiving reflection... we have decided to try again.

The youngest has elected to stay behind (he has since seen a doctor, initial analysis is good, but he has a follow up appointment with a cardiologist. "I probably shouldn't go to a concert until I'm cleared to run again").

Myself and my other brother both stole hours from work today to speak with family, move work shifts and secure travel for this Friday 12.6. "Holy sh#t are we really going to do this?" Yes we are. We have to.

We arrive in Seattle Thursday evening and we are pumped beyond belief.

We need two tickets and would be *delighted* to pay what they are worth.

I promise we will be excellent wingmen for the show. We bought everyone the beverage of their choice around us before the show started in Oakland.

Sincere thanks.
Dan

  • Damn! $13.00 a beer and $6.50 for a water at Oakland....wish I was sitting near you.

    Good luck on your tickets and Seattle. Have a great show!!
    If you were my friend, I'd give you the ball on every play.
  • Funny. It is a simple theory, really: I'd rather pay for a cheap ticket and spend the extra money on the folks sharing the concert with me. I have found that Pearl Jam fans are generally incredible people and worth it.

    We've spent a crazy amount of time looking for tickets that last 36 hours. No dice. Any one have any ideas?

    Thank you all and have a great show.
