    yes!!! the "care bears" topic:

    - positive:
    - I lost my flight for canada
    - I problably don't come back for the 8 shows postponed
    - I lost my buses ticket greyhound
    - yes all it's allright !

    and to be honest, I don 't give a damn about a new album, what interests me are the concerts.

    The only positive thing would be that postponement be in a year.

     Now I can focus more on who's around me and what I have. Best to all who are scared and suffering...a wake up call we never wanted. Be kind to everyone and spin some records. Enjoy the sunrise.

    Ticketmaster email about the postponement said that existing tickets would be honored for rescheduled datses. Not to worry!

    Positivity? Whenever they get to play these rescheduled shows, the band and the crowd is going to be SO AMPED to be there. The shows will be amazing. It will be worth the wait!

    1. College reunion trip to Nashville built around show. Tremendous effort to secure 10 tix so we can all see together. House rented, 10 flights from all over NE booked, divorce papers threatened, etc., etc., ...

    week after,

    2. Major trip w/ 16yo son(Big PJ Fan, says the lyrics actually mean something) fully booked starting at Phoenix show and ending at Oakland show with Grand Canyon, river rafting, National Parks along the way. Huge financial and planning efforts here in addition to landing the seats. Spring break week.

    Positively still going on both trips. 
    Positively will not be able to afford trip(s) back to any of the rescheduled shows.
    Positively Positive no lesson learned here that I can share out loud other than friends and family first.

    Positively Positive that we will not experience a lesser exposure threat to virus missing the shows now as we'll instead be in bars, restaurants, hotels, cabs, public spaces, bordellos, music venues, etc. for those few hours instead. Note that living life is continuing all over the place. The supermarket was packed this afternoon with people, for instance. Isn't someone suppose to notify them and the staff that their putting Human Civilization at risk being in public? Ooops. That was out loud. Sorry. Sea, warned me once already.

    I'm I wrong here? I can handle the truth. 

    REALITIVITY


    Is this a joke?  Sorry, I did not get it if so.
    Seems to be a 2nd account posting - since post total shows as 1 and Sea warned already/

    Hey, we are all still alive!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    yes... for those who can participate after the postponement. It's more difficult when you live more than 7000 kilometers from the concert venue... in this case you just have to stay at home and watch the setlist unfolded like a dumb

    As long as there is a make up date, your existing tickets should be honored. That has been my experience in the past.

    Positive: Gives the people who's going more chance to save money, and buy more PJ stuff while at the show. Poster, t-shirts, all of the goodies.

    Thinking about the environmental aspects of the tour’s postponement : what do you think about all the merch that was produced so far? It would be totally not environmentally friendly to have it all scrapped. Could they use it for the rescheduled tour ? 
    For example posters - it’s all about artists creation and idea not about two digits representing the exact date ? 
    I would have no problem with purchasing a poster with a “wrong” date.
    what do you think ?

    My buddy surprised me with this the other night, the last official video I was missing. Decided I’ll watch it this Wednesday when I would’ve been at the tour opener, lol.

    The silver lining: covid-19 just might single handedly save social security from bankruptcy.

    I was off past 3 days and helped my wife with the kids remote school work while they are at home the next 3 weeks...  Teachers deserve more money and credit.  I was about to pull my hair out with my 9 yo son!!  My 8 yo daughter almost has her entire 3 weeks of schololwork done already.  I’m back at work today.  My poor wife...  Now I know why she needs a glass of red wine each night when kids go to sleep

    If you need a good laugh about kids doing school at home watch this video. It seriously made me laugh out loud.

    Beyond the "new Pearl Jam" angle, it was exactly what I needed setlist-wise.  The opening had a healing aspect to it that leads into a flatout rocker.  Totally agreed it was an amazing show, you're lucky to have been there!

    but, what would of happened if they took the 2 trillion+ they spent on holding the economy together, and just put that into social security?  Wouldn't that of worked too? :)

    My big positive is that I have continued working hands on throughout all of this, in a healthcare setting, and we have had zero cases so far. It's been a long few months. 
    My partner will turn 30 the day after they were due to play in London. We were also due to attend Werchter and Vienna. We will continue to listen to Gigaton, and we'll be ready when it's safe for them to return to Europe. 
    Loud Love to everyone here.

    I like the part where the CEO says they can make the math work on reduced capacity shows.  I suggested something like this on another thread and someone called me an idiot, in effect, for even suggesting something like that.  So, good article!

    Curious if people can get general sale tickets refunded now since it has been 60 days since they postponed and TM policy is to have a full refund for all tickets available once that milestone is hit with no new dates announced.
