I got so so so so so many replies and this was so so so difficult. However, I feel confident in my choice!!!

CONGRATS TO TORRIE EDWARDS!!!

In solidarity with Pearl Jam in their decision to cancel the NC show to show support for LGBT rights, I'm offering up one free Wrigley Field night 2 ticket (Monday Aug 22nd) to someone who lost out on the Raleigh date. It's not a Ten Club seat but it's decent: Terrace 213 or something like that. I'll have to look. I got this ticket as insurance. :-) I won't give this to anyone who bashed the band or LGBT rights FYI.

PM me with proof that you had NC tix and the reason why you should get the free ticket. I'll pick tomorrow.

Much love to all!

EDIT: I can mail the hard copy ticket to the winner ASAP via UPS or some kind of traceable carrier. Also, please please please remember these aren't ten club seats. They are decent seats but they aren't TC. I just don't want anyone to miss that part and then be disappointed.

Hit me with a fuckin' quarter again and, fuck it, I'm outta here. We're all outta here. Fuck you, and if anyone sees someone throw fuckin' change right next to them, you have my permission to beat the fuckin' holy shit outta them."

    It's the absolute least I could do. As a young lady in the 90's, Pearl Jam opened up a whole world to me in the way of LGBT rights, among other causes. They were the gateway to me learning about so much. I feel so indebted to them.

    If you are really in solidarity with Pearl jam you are going to have to contact whoever you give the ticket to 2 days prior to the show and record your offer

    Thanks for the offer.

    I may choose to go to Wrigley... but I am also going to Toronto/NYC so I shouldn't be in the running.
