First time at a PJ concert

in The Porch
I would love to have all the advice possible for my first ever Pearl Jam concert. 
I scored tickets for the OKC showing, and although I’m a little bummed I didn’t have the cash for closer seats (section 302) I’m still pretty f***ing pumped! 
I’ve been trying to score tickets to their shows for years and have never been able to until a few days ago. I am a 31 year old that cried like a baby when my three tickets purchase went through, lol. 
I live in Dallas, so I will be driving the 3 hours to the show and would love any and all advice as far as to what time I should get there and everything after that.

    Closer seats were the same price. They just went fast and the few premium seats were left

    Oohh, that makes sense. 
    Hopefully, there’s another tour and I’ll just have to be extra vigilant to score closer seats. :)

    HelenMaria, you should stop by our conversation this Friday evening on nofilter.net. There is a Tour Talk thread with the details. I'm happy that you're finally getting to see PJ.
    Play Sacramento!

    My advice is to casually walk into a lower level section next to the pit as the lights go out and the band comes onto the stage. Keep walking down until you see some empty seats. They'll likely be in the front row. Park yourself and enjoy!

    I live in Oklahoma City and this will be my first PJ concert as well. I was able to get tickets back in 2019 and have been waiting (im)patiently since then :)
