Couldn’t afford to be at any shows this year, member since 1999, seats would have been good. Point is, I’m fine with it. I pay more a year for Disney+, AppleTV, etc, that are just placeholders in life. Been to 30 shows and appreciate all of them. In fact I personally feel the band should go more the way of hits as we’ve seen the past year, it’s not for you personally, it’s for the crowd. 

Point is, I pay for the opportunity that I can be at their shows, sometimes my job is in the way, sometimes it ain’t. That’s my problem. Thank you Pearl Jam for allowing me a chance for tickets, never let me down actually

    We need couch tour opportunities.  If you can’t make the show, you can pay $50 and see it in 4K.  Get the sound at Dolby atmos levels if that’s even possible, and I’m even more down.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    Would pay $30 for a home viewing, anyways. There definitely would be a lot of demand for these types of things -

    Couch tour would be a welcome addition.

    I hope they do it.  As a band that loves $$, it’s an easy addition, and they already use nugs, who holds the servers.

    I'm with you. it's an interesting post, one that outwardly suggests some positivity. But also, there seems to be more going on beneath the surface. There does seem to be a pocket of veiled - yet subtle - snark in the underbelly. 

    I am perplexed.

    Nothing snarky. I was reading a post of people bitching about ticket prices being soo high, it drives me crazy. Go see Paul McCartney and you’ll see what a high ticket price is. We are lucky this band has taken care of us as much as we’ve taken care of them.
