    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.

    That was seriously the smoothest transaction I've ever had buying PJ tickets. Got 2 VIP-2 tickets, and I was amazed there weren't ANY surcharges added by ticketmaster, just a straight $350 total!

    I wanted VIP 1 and then I saw the price tag....got VIP3, which I am perfectly happy with. The code worked!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
  • Boo. I entered my code at 7:02 and all the tickets in the VIP were gone :bawling: Have fun everyone. As both a HUGE Pearl Jam AND Beyonce fan this looks pretty cool.
