    Does The Who do individual concert posters like PJ? Any chance we see one for the Townshend/Vedder show?

    Both of The Who's prior charity shows in Chicago with EV or PJ had show specific posters.

    Would it be possible that Ed tried getting in touch with Jack White and couldn't because he's on his solo acoustic tour right now? I mean, maybe Ed meant that he just couldn't get in touch with him, and that's why Jack isn't on the list. Jack's acoustic tour is only 5 shows and he's done 3 of them already. A month from now, he doesn't have anything going on in regards to touring. I'm holding onto hope (and fanning the flame of the rumor) that Jack may still be a part of this....

    I feel like he will be there. i don't see the purpose of dropping his name if he knows he isnt going to show... whites shows are supposed to be a mystery after all, right?

    Can't stop thinking about this show. Gonna be so great. Imagine about 10 Ed songs, one each from guests, and then collaborations with Roger and group.

    Anyone saying Daltrey or 2 other guests is gonna water down is a jealous fool.

    This isn't a PJ show. It's about Pete, Roger and The Who. Anything more than 5 songs from Ed -- which almost has to happen -- is historic in a single Ed/Who show.

    I'm hoping to hear a lot of Pete singing, even solo Pete stuff. It is after all being billed as a celebration of Pete Townshend and The Who. I find it hard to believe it would be just Ed singing Who songs in lieu of Roger.

    Doesn't matter, been a Pete/Who fan forEVER. Can't wait.

    There are actually less tickets available today than there were yesterday. The ff presale tickets were finally made available to the public, and several of the expensive ones sold.

    I have 2 tix for the show and unfortunately can't make it (grrr!!!!) because of my work schedule.
    I am selling them at face value. I splurged and got some of the better seats.
    They are in section 107 row R. The total I paid ticketmaster was $1,554.70
    If anyone is interested let me know.

    Still looks like lots of $500 tickets available. If they don't sell them I wonder if they will allow for "upgrade options" the day of the show so they can make $ (upgrade from $250 to back of $500 but for less than the $250 difference). Might as well get some $ if the ticket would go unsold otherwise

    almost 4 whole rows in 209 open today. that was new to me. and i've been looking daily as i am still deciding what my best route is for a single ticket(airline booked). there's 459 tickets on stub hub that will mostly all sell for face or less. there's 200 tickets left on ticketmaster.

    Those rows were locked as part of the friends and family presale. The 4 rows in 209 have been available for over a week, you just had to have the code. The friends and family presale was supposed to be over the night before the public sale, but the seats remained locked unless you had the f&f presale code. It looks like they finally unlocked those seats.
    Several of the closer seats sold after the presale seats were made public.

    Jack White's last acoustic show was announced this morning, so he'll be up to no good for a while. Still not sure if Eddie's messing with our heads or not.

    (edit: extra ticket sold)

    I was just looking at my stats on PJ Stat Tracker (best app ever!). The first song I ever saw at a concert was Blue Red and Grey. The last song I saw was Baba O'Riley. Now I feel like it was destiny for me to get tickets to this concert!!!
