    Is this televised? I remember watching one year on some channel. Maybe even PBS

    According to their red button service the BBC are showing the concert in the UK. No other details are provided tho.

    would love to bring our kids but looks like the code only enables 2 tickets to be purchased. how to folks deal with this? we will need 4 for our whole family to go. guess it is time for both my wife and i to have a tenclub membership for this purpose, but too late now to get another membership for this show. any ideas?

    I think the public sale limit (non-Ten Club) is 6.

    But will Pearl Jam allow Global Citizen to broadcast their set live on YouTube / TV? If not they might have to replay Ed Sheeran's set twice!

    I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't bank on this limit being 6 tomorrow. It's already been hinted that the ticket prices are subject to change once it goes live tomorrow, maybe they'll do the same w the ticket limit. Who knows.

    Isn't the festival about supporting efforts to rid the world of poverty and standing behind your favorite band to support them for making the decision to partake in the festival.

    Even if Pearl Jam played 2 songs, it seems like the right thing to do, as an avid Pearl Jam fan, would be to go to the festival to show your support for the cause and the band.

    Plus, most importantly, I don't want Beyonce fans outnumbering Pearl Jam fans!!!!

    It is an odd line up if you ask me! That being said, I live in Jersey so it's not out of my way to show up for however long they play. But, if the tickets cost over $200 I am out due to financial reasons. I'll try a some of the "actions" for free the tix drawing, but not getting crazy.

    Have fun to all who attend!
    No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead...

    so will this code be entered prior to purchase i assume, like a presale code?? or will it be entered after tix are in the cart?? anyone have a guess?

    There is nowhere to enter anything once it is in the cart. I imagine there will be a specific dropdown for a Pearl Jam/Ten Club presale, which will prompt a code entry, and then you should be good to go.

    Haha...it being Pearl Jam and it being their only U.S. show, I wouldn't be surprised to see them play a little longer than some other bands have in the past.

    Since it isn't a Pearl Jam show, though, I would imagine going over would result in them cutting the audio before paying a fine.
