    So are most people just gonna kick it at the Mellon, or is there anything fun planned?

    I don't know that I've ever seen an event with so few tickets available online. None of the online sellers (e.g., onlineseats.com) have more than 1 or 2 sets of tickets, and even ebay only has 10 or so available. There must not be a lot of people looking to part with their tix (which sucks for those of us who are looking for some).

    Yes, Sir!!! Cannot wait for the 23rd!!!

    My votes for songs I'd like to hear most are: Footsteps, SOLAT, Alone, Hail Hail, Why Go, Come Back, Comatose, Faithfull, I Got Shit, Not For You, Porch, Red Mosquito, Light Years, Wash, Low Light, Immortality, Go, Leash, Gone, Man of the Hour...

    I guess I got a bit carried away, but I could go on and on...

    Can't wait to see y'all at the show. Make sure you head to the Red Star Tavern for the pre and post show extravagana.

    STEELTOWN Friday night is gonna ROCK!!!!! (6/23 that is)
    I was at Cleveland, Camden 2, and East Rutherford 2 and the boys rocked the house all 3 nights. Last summer when they opened up for the Stones I got to meet the band. I gave Ed my Casey Hampton jersey, that would be sweet if he came out representing the Super Bowl Champs, I told Ed we were going to the Bowl and he laughed. I will honestly shit myself if that happens. But I severly doubt it...... Who Knows..... ROCK ON Pearl Jam

    hey, come to think of it, i wonder if any of our steelers will be at the show? i bet some of them are fans. what do you think?
    Caught a bolt 'a lightnin'...cursed the day he let it go...

    That would be great if some Steelers showed up. I work in the TV Industry and when WWE was in town last week, Casey Hampton, Max Starks, Bryan McFadden, and their new Lineman they drafted this year there. So who knows!!!

  • Does anyone know if section b17 or b-18 is pretty good for seats at the Mellon ?
  • Going to Pittsburgh on 6/23, from central NJ. Decided to get the ticket after East Rutherford II....they were absolutely incredible!!! I'm coming in solo...none of my friends could take the day off on short notice, but I'm a teacher and my last day is 6/22, so I'm set! What does Pittsburgh do before a Pearl Jam show? Tailgating, or is there a bar or something where people hang out?

    People of Pittsburgh love to tailgate. I'm not sure how good the tailgating is at the Mellon, or where it's at. Bars? Restaurants? Parking lot? I always attend concerts at the Pavilion, and tailgating there is incredible. According to the DMB crowd it's some of the best.

    Is there anyone here who is willing to switch me 10C tickets? I saw some people doing it earlier in the tour, and was wondering if anyone would be so generous to allow this huge PJ fan, who will be attending his first show on June 23, to sit as close as possible. I have 338#, so it's still fan club seating, but won't be as close as possible.

    Woof woof, Go Browns! (I know the Steelers kicked our ass on X-mas eve, i was there, still gotta represent though... and we've got LeBron, so hah!)

    I actually have had a renewed respect for Steelers fans ever since the Monday night game in 95 when they wore the orange armbands to protest the Browns moving to Baltimore. So ever since then I hate the Ratbirds, and am relatively indifferent to the Steelers, it's not even like Ohio State-Michigan...

    anyways, I have a pair of ten club seats, and looks like I'm gonna be coming in solo, cuz my friends are either not hip enough to be huge PJ fans or they are too broke to afford to go. So I'm looking for a cool person to sell my extra to for face price and hang out at the show with...

    What's up bro. I'd love to grab that extra ticket off you. I'm coming into P-Burgh solo for pretty much the same reasons you listed for having an extra. On top of paying for tix we could meet up pre-game and I'll buy you a couple brews and a bite to eat. I'll be driving down from Syracuse. Please let me know either way, thanks!

    MMMM tailgating at the Pavillion is AWESOME...I've done it for DMB and its a good time...except trying to get out after the show when you have to drive around people STILL tailgating...and then you just get out of the damn car and tailgate some more while you wait for the lines of traffic to budge...
    Anyways I don't think people tailgate much at the Mellon Arena...theres always tailigaiting at PNC Park/Heinze Field lots for games. I'd say since there are a thousand bars in the area, thats where the tailgating will be but I dunno, I was still in high school for the 2003 show at the Mellon.
  • So are a bunch of you...yinz...going to the Red Star Tavern in Station Square for the pre party?? Is this still on and what's going on with drink specials for ticket holders, I have seen that mentioned in some previous posts about the Pitts show? I AM SO EXCITED!! I work til 2 and my boyfriend probably til 4:30 but I'm thinking of driving to Pitts by myself from Cranberry after work hehehe and surround myself with awesome PJ fans.


    And I'm wondering when the Here We Go Steelers chant will take place...perhaps we should place bets..I'm saying as everyone is leaving the show there will be one...those not from Pittsburgh...this happens at EVERY event basically...concerts, tailgating, what have you, there is always a rowdy Here We Go chant..its ingraining into our culture, allow me to apologize now.
  • I like living in BFE. I get to hear the cows go mooooooooo.


    Heya where in BFE outside of Pittsburgh are you from? I am also...like 50 minutes outside, on the Beaver County Lawrence County line. I can smell the damn cow manure from my house on a windy day.

    Hopefully never, though leaving would be the best time for sure. ;)

    I'm at a rock concert at the Igloo, not across the river at Ketchup Field. ;)
