Apparently Pearl Jam are still in negotiations to headline Slane in Co Meath Ireland, this is why no Dublin/Belfast/Manchester show. slane can hold 80k. Pj played it in 1993 suporting Neil Young. It could happen. fingers crossed. makes sense to have one more massive show
i wish i wish i wish i wish, i guess it never stops
Happy that i don't have odds problems with Padova and Rome...driving through Italy will be amazing again...really enjoyed it in 2014!!
up here in my tree in Vienna 2006: Vienna 2009: Berlin 2010: London ~ Berlin 2012: Amsterdam 1+2 ~ Werchter ~ Arras ~ Berlin 1+2 2014: Milano ~ Trieste ~ Vienna ~ Berlin 2018: Padova ~ Rome 2022: Budapest ~ Vienna EV London/Hammersmith 2012 EV Berlin/Zitadelle 2017
Does anyone know of the odds are first preference only per show or does it take into second, third preference etc?
They count everything in
hope not because that would not be fair to someone who has a show as a 1st choice over someone who has the same show as 3rd choice.
are we sure its like that? why even put choices in the first place then?
They count 1st and 2nd and 3rd etc.in the total. That means if you have it 1st choice the odds are better
Lets say there are 100 tix available 80 1st 30 2nd 30 3rd The odds are 71% or something but all people that have it as 1st choice get in. At least this is what I understood from the conversation I had with Dimitris last night.

got it!Thanks!
lets hope being 1st choice will get me tickets even in a 17%

Cant see it happening. Not many options open to them within the current dates.

So if you are lucky enough to get your first preference per show eg. standing, you should be removed from the seating draw if you had that as a 2nd preference, therefore the odds can go back up as the draws are being made??

I suppose so if someone has GA as 1st and reserved as 2nd for the same show

Sorry if someone already broached this topic, but what are the odds the band plays at Isle of Wight? They have about four days between their last London date and the next show, conveniently when the Isle of Wight festival is going on.

besides a 2nd show in Amsterdam or hopefully a 2nd show in barcelona i dont see them adding new shows to the tour. When they annouce a tour they always announce all shows , if they add anything after its always 2nd city shows

because its a stadium. other ones are arenas, much less capacity

Just curious how the London GA is typically? Is it similar to a US show or much more active?
depends on the crowd on the night, basing it on Leeds ad Milton Keynes, the majority of folks were great but at MK there were pockets of people being brutal. You never know in the UK what you're going to get. Seen it all at various gigs from those standing with arms folded near the front to people going by punching and biting people. Im expecting nothing more a usual great crowd of appreciative PJ fans that look out for each other.

I've put London 2, Prague and Krakow in the lottery, in that order, all GA. If I get London, do I then have less chance of getting either/Any of the other two. I'd like all three but don't know if that's a possibility?
Some tips on best way to pick for these shows with GA % being so high and reserved so low
- The odds are only a show of how popular that event is with regards to picks. The odds do not take into account what priority you are putting your picks in for but they just do an accumulation of every pick. This means if I put something down as a priority one and you put the same thing down as a priority 10 they will carry the same weight when effecting the odds. - The way the shows are picked goes something like this. They do 1 show at a time(with a computer program) Lets say it is for Amsterdam 1. They take everyone that put reserved as their first priority and do a draw. If there are more first priorities picks then seats available then some people will lose out in the draw. If there are seats available after the first priority draw is done then they move onto priority 2. The same goes for GA. Once Amsterdam is filled up the move onto the next show. - If you want reserved and do not want GA do not put GA down anywhere. Odds are you are going to lose reserved and win GA so be careful - If you want GA and do not want reserved at all do not put reserved down anywhere especially ahead of other shows GA's. It makes no sense with these odds to put a GA down as a first pick and then the same shows reserved pick as a second. - As of right now all GA's are 100% locks to get in besides Amsterdam and London 1. If you want these two shows do put Amsterdam first London 1 second and everything else after.
I've put London 2, Prague and Krakow in the lottery, in that order, all GA. If I get London, do I then have less chance of getting either/Any of the other two. I'd like all three but don't know if that's a possibility?
Normally yes but since Prague and Krakow are 99% then you will get those picks if they are even your 10th or 11th. That 99% number tells you that they have yet to meet enough ticket requests to satisfy amount of tickets they have to distribute.

well said. if anyone wants London 1, they could always get London 2 (if it's still at 99%) and find someone to partner up with. there will always be the typical "have spare night 1, looking for night 2 and vice versa)

Thank you, so I *could* get all three?
You can and you will get all 3 if the odds stay the same. Watch to see if any of those 3 shows start to drop from the locked 99%. If one does just put it first priority.

I would say london crowds are probably most rowdy in my experience i always prefer other crowds than my own country . Berlin was the closest to roughness imo
