    Any Intel on set times and order with t minus one month? Anybody hearing anything? I know we are all speculating they're headlining for 60-75 mins but any real news leak?

    Any word on merch for this event? I wonder if they will have a pop-up shop? Maybe three different posters?? Multiple shirts???

    My guess is they won't have anything other than Global stuff there

    Does anyone have any spare tickets they aren't using? I still haven't gotten so much as an answer from Global citizen yet!

    I have a feeling this IS the warmup show for Latin & South America.

    This.

    Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. It'll be somewhere in between. :)

    Well said, Odie

    Based on the tour itinerary this makes sense. However, I can't imagine them doing a "warm up" in Central Park in front of +/-70K people and for a show that'll be broadcasted on tv for who knows how many ears and eyes. #23daystogo !!!

    Thanks :rock_on:

    I hope you're right. But see, to us a "greatest hits" show is going to feel like a "warm-up" show. Because we're spoiled rotten. :rofl:

    Crap, it's coming up soon! I am pumped! Can't beat a free show in Central Park featuring Pearl Jam! Obviously it would be amazing to throw in some rarities in there, but if not, oh well. Just excited to make it another year of seeing my favorite band.

    I'd love to know what time they go on. I'm working till 4. Luck if I get there by 530. Hope I don't miss anything. I did drop $250 each on tickets. It'd be nice to know lol.

    It's so goddamn crazy that I am still sweating out how I am gonna get into this thing. I'm praying I win one of the remaining lotto drawings, and if I don't win, I'm gonna need to head up to CP early as hell on the 26th with a pocket full of cash and compete with a bazillion other people looking to do the same thing. Fucking sucks.

    Goddamn the fact that other than shelling out over $700 for a secondary market VIP ticket there is no way to assure yourself admission into this concert right now.

    Well, to anyone with extra VIP passes I just locked up two sets of 2 full playoff strips for the Mets in the Promenade right behind the plate, which I would be willing to barter for a VIP pass/passes. Come October (God willing) they are gonna be the hottest tickets in the whole city.

    Let's go Mets!

    You should be just fine, the website says it should end around 10. So if PJ were in fact the headliners, you'd be more than fine. Even if they were 2nd to last, it should still be OK according to your timetable.

    Is anyone else concerned that PJ will not be the headliner and they'll only play 8-10 songs?

    Here are the set lists from previous years. The bands that don't go last play really short sets. main "Headliner" plays around 15 songs.

    http://www.setlist.fm/search?query=global+citizen+festival&venue=4bd4bb06

    I'm all about the event and the cause and all...but we're talking about a seven hour affair here and I am not even remotely interested in the other 3 acts. And (everyone remove their PJ goggles) two of those acts - Ed Sheeran and Beyonce - are more popular among the masses than PJ. There is a very good chance PJ will not play last and I think it's going to leave me a bit disappointed.

    I know this has been discussed here and on that other thread a bit, but the consensus seems to be "nah, PJ will play last." I'm not so sure about that...

    Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
    Those undecided,........ Needn't have faith to be free
    And those misguided, There was a plan for them to be
    Now you got both sides Claiming killing in Gods name
    But God is nowhere,..... To be found, conveniently

    What goes on?
