    Not sure if I posted in here yet to confirm that we got tix on TM. We pulled 2 singles in 105! So happy my brother and I are in for this one! We are flying in super late Friday night (after work) and flying home super early Sunday morning. Won't sleep much that weekend but this way we squeeze in 1 more show this tour and minimize trauma to the spouses and kids and use no vacation time!

    Long shot.... If anybody with GA would rather have their own spot and easy pee breaks and no line up headache... Let me know. 105 appears to be right by Stone. We'd love to relieve you of the inconvenience of GA :wink:

    I just looked at the layout of this venue and wow it looks great! I am curious about where my 10C tickets will be located. Has anyone ever been behind the band? What's it like to watch the band from behind? Either way I'm glad to be in the building.
    I'm ready to be in Greenville now!! I just spun Riot Act and VS. yesterday. I think my PJ catalog will be getting a bit more attention.

    If you want a general idea of where 10c tickets are, just look at StubHub and check out the sections that they don't have any, or very few, tickets available for. Judging by the lack of tickets they have for the 3 wing sections, pit, and front floor reserved sections, I'd say the 10c seats will all be pretty good. 10c tickets won't be behind the stage, but that being said, I never hesitate to take seats behind the stage when they come up.

  • I will be there with reserved seats. I live 2 miles from the venue. Lived In Greenville since 1998. It will be great. I am working on a Pearl Jam pre party venue downtown, just a few blocks from the arena. Have to speak to the owner this week. It's a cool bar with food also. Hoping he will do giveaways and things. For sure Pearl Jam on the radio the whole time. Has inside and outside seating. I will post when I know more. Will be in Columbia and Raleigh too to make it a total of 25 shows. Excited beyond belief.

    Neat tip. I'll check it out. If I were to be behind the stage it would be fine. I'm just glad to be in the building. This'll be show #6! Peanuts to some...and for those that this will be their first show...you're in for a treat! I've been to many different bands shiws but PJ just sticks and lingers long after the show ends. :)

    I have a question for the locals. We're traveling from Maryland (the Eastern Shore), and will be going to Raleigh for the show on the 20th. Any suggestions for sightseeing from Greenville to Raleigh? What cities are fun? We love baseball, quirky places, music (of course!), and art. Thanks for any suggestions!

    One option is to drive one hour to Asheville and watch the Asheville tourists baseball, catch a show at the orange peel and then hit i-40 to for 4 hours to Raleigh.
    Asheville is the best "destination" city that's not too far out of the way. You've got the mountains with great hiking trails on the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Biltmore estate, lots of quirky shopping places. Plus, it's a great beer city with lots of local breweries. It's about a 3 hour drive from where I live and my wife and I travel up that way for long weekends pretty regularly.

    There are some things to do in Charlotte, but I wouldn't go out of my way just to visit there. They do have the Knights (AAA team of the White Sox) if you really want to maximize the baseball opportunities.
    Thank you! We went to Asheville about ten years ago, and loved it. May be time for a return visit!

    Thank you! We've heard lots of good things about Raleigh, too. We're so looking forward to this trip!

    Ok so heading down and at the moment at least booked at the La Quinta Greenville/Haywood. Had to book something as prices are heading up, quite a bit from Friday and things seem to be booking fast.

    After that looks like we are heading to Asheville for 2 nights. Staying at the new Village Hotel at Biltmore, looks really nice. Will try and hit as many as the breweries in town as possible, lol looks pretty cool.

    Then I think we are off to Raleigh for 2 nights. Which just so happens to line up with PJ in Raleigh! Trying to see if I can land a ticket to that. I don't think my wife will want to do another show so will probably go solo. But would be a great way to bookend the trip.

    So wheres the pre party!?

    Wife and I are doing our craziest Pearl Jam road trip to date. 10 hr drive from Hamilton, NJ leaving Friday night to catch show on Saturday and coming back home on Sunday. Is there anyone nearby us or along our way that would want to hop in and carpool? We could take people just one way too most likely

    I'm still trying to find a good (or two) Greenville tix ... will throw in 2 passes for Biltmore Estate in Asheville (value of 130.00$) ...

    Also: several folks have mentioned stopping in Asheville - so just for fun and to keep the touring vibe going I'm Thinking we might very loosely organize a downtown
    walkabout brewery tour for Friday or Sunday afternoon since we have some family and friend connections Involved .. Will keep posted which day, time, and at which brewery to meet in case you care to join.

  • Try to stay at new Aloft downtown, Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn Riverplace or Hyatt Regency downtown if reasonable. Probably a little higher than Haywood Road or Woodruff Road, but you can park and walk everywhere you want to be. They are all on or just off Main Street and just a couple of blocks from the concert. No parking charge at Hoilday Inn Express. Hope this helps a bit. I will have info on pre party venue this week. It will be on Main right near the venue. Stay tuned!

    We're staying at the Aloft downtown, seems like a good spot
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...
  • Great spot! Newest hotel. Bar is terrific with real good live music on weekends. Best Aloft bar I have ever been to.
