    Found out my cousin got us tix for Sunday show. Haven't been to Fenway since I was 7, fell in love with baseball all those years ago. A lot of nostalgia in the cards for me. So excited. My father took me and my two sisters for a weekend series way back then, thrilled to say I'm making the trip back home with that very same man. He's 82 now, won't be going to the show, but he's happy for me.

    And now I'm going to cry, my heart is filled with such great joy and. memories.

    Carry on . . .

    Awwww.. Enjoy !!!!
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    Prices are Stubhub for Wrigley I and Fenway 1 are going nuts. They are both up over $40 in the last week. Panic purchasing? about 1000 seats left for each.

    Stub hub is ridiculous!! No less than $170 for crappy seats. Good seats?? Hundreds of $$ hope someone has tickets they can't use and need to sell them. I would rather pay more buying from another fan than give insane amounts of money to stub hub.

    Do you guys think the demand for the Fenway tix will go down at all?

    I think it will get worse.
    Sometimes tickets get released right before the show, but never for Pearl Jam or Fenway. So Pearl Jam finally getting to play Fenway..........good luck with that.
    I know it's still two months away but I told you so.

    And even if I could... I don't think I would. Why should stub hub make so much more on the tickets than PJ?

    Stub Hub is just a resale site like eBay (in fact it is owned by eBay). They facilitate the transaction plus a cut on top of the purchase price. The people who are making the money on these transactions are ticket holders (either individuals or brokers) looking to capitalize on the market value of their tickets. It's all about supply and demand. When the demand is higher than the supply then prices go up. In this case demand is obviously shockingly stratospheric.

    Except that tickets almost always get released for PJ and always get released for Fenway. Shows are 2 months out. Releases will happen within a couple of days of show. Patience and persistence will be rewarded. Impatience will overpay.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    May get lucky on the boards , especially for night 2. Night 1 is slim pickings and you maybe at the mercy of on-line resell sites (StubHub, Vivid, etc) or roll the dice and the day or two before the show buying down in wrigleyville.

    "Releases will happen within a couple of days of show"? Which tickets??? Ten Club policy states: "The Ten Club member whose account was used to purchase the tickets must present valid photo ID in person to collect the tickets on the day of the show. No exceptions."

    Releases happen because there are always tickets held back for many reasons that don't get sold and are released closer to the show.

    Not necessarily from 10club but from other sources:
    Band
    Venue
    Label
    Promoter
    Sponsors
    Radio stations
    Etc.

    He is talking about a ticket drop not 10 club tickets.

    Does anybody know if there was a ticket drop for the Wrigley 13 show? If so, was it listed on Wrigley, TM, or PJ site. I got lucky at 2 shows this tour with ticket drops, hopefully the same for Wrigley. Stubhub is insane$!! Looking for 2 for Wrigley night 1.

    Safe and legit yes. Is there a chance that they are fakes yes. They will guarantee your tickets though and get you your money back if you can't get in or get you comparable tickets at the door.

    Stub Hub is really one of the only secondary market resale sites that I truly trust. I use them all the time. I've purchased quite a number of tickets through Stub Hub to various music and sporting events and I've never had a problem with either receiving the tickets or having them be counterfeit. Like PJNB said, they do have a 100% money back guarantee in the off chance that you get screwed over.

    How far in advance should we be in line for Wrigley GA? Are merchandise kiosks open ahead of time? Say I get there 3 hours early can I buy my merchandise then? Please advise.

    This is based on my very limited GA experience (just two shows and on this tour)

    Every venue ends up being a little different. And it depends on how close you want to be. The difference between being on the rail and being behind a person that is on the rail could be hours!

    for example in Miami I was on the rail and got there at 7 AM. In Tampa I got there at 11PM the night before and was in the same spot in line as Miami. The people directly behind me in the show (2nd row of GA) arrived in the GA line at noon (13 hours later).

    The merch lines started forming hours before merch opened. I think merch opened at 2:00 and people were in line well before noon. But, if you get in the merch line around when it opens you'll get what you want, but you will be in line for a long time.

    again, this is based on my very limited experience, but there you have it. Good Luck.

    P.S. Looking for a Wrigley Night 1 GA ticket....anyone? anyone? or any ticket? anyone?
    Thank you for the info. Can you tell me when (on the day of) the wristbands are available for pickup?

    A final confirmation email with ticket pick up info will be emailed to you about one week before the show with details on pickup time and location. No one really knows for sure until then.
