    I was offered $5,000 to give my ticket away and wristband to see the Rolling Stones at Roseland Ballroom in 2002. I said no way. It was an incredible show to see the Stones in a club during the Forty Licks Tour.

    I believe it. I wouldn't have sold them either. Everyone is different. :)

    I guess it comes down to your financial situation too. You prob. do pretty well for yourself and obviously value a Pearl Jam night at MSG greatly. But for someone just outta school with student loans, i could pay down a pretty nice chunk with that dough.

    thank you my friend ..

    but im making this up cause nothing is on tv lol

    wow no wonder why the band has been playing green disease alot

    i really don't know what is so unbelievable about this.....there are people in this world who have A LOT of discretionary income so 13k for a concert isn't a big deal....and as for you turning down the $$$, i would too....a concert by your favorite band doesn't happen everyday....you can always make money :)

    You'd think that someone who could spend 13K on a concert (or their representatives) would be savy enough not to overpay!

    I believe it.

    what I don't believe is why you feel the need to make a post
    about it and why you think people give a shit.

    I admire the fact that you would rather share the experience
    with family but I really have to question your motive behind
    making a post about this.

    not fanclub of course ,the extras i bought for both nights

    but i told the person blood is thicker than water and i bought them for family and friends

    the guy thought i was nuts lol but i said NO WAY ITS PJ AT MSG

    ??? Why wouldn't you take the 13,000 and buy more tickets??? This is hard to believe. You'd have to be a moron not to accept that money.

    You guys are posting what people are asking for....138,xxx was posting what people are paying...big difference. I can post my tickets for 29K and send you the ebay link...doesn't mean anyone is buying...

    If this was true, you could of sold those tix for 13K and upgraded for your whole family. You need to look at completed listings to see what people are paying on ebay...not current listings. The best seats at the Beacon are going for less than 1600.00 each..far less

    My theory on why you posted this is so that you can look like the man for turning down the almighty dollar in the name of your family...

    Hmmmm...I am no detective, but I think his motive was to convey to us the high market value of MSG tix.

    Buts thats just me, and a super-sleuth I am not!

    I hope the band knows how much pressure is on them to give the performance of a lifetime.

    Or $13,000 worth at least.

    :):)

    Have fun bud. After so many shows, enjoying with your friends and family is what makes it worth it. I'm taking 8 noobs (mostly friends) and can't wait to see their reactions.

    Hell, no....my clients would simply have their publicists get them the tix!

    The more you can afford something, the less likely you are to have to actually spend the money.

    BS...this cats too full of himself from the start. Yo privileged one... I love PJ but don't give a fuck about all your inside shit. I really question whether you're a real fan or a blow hard insider who just loves the attention.

    My salary says you talk big on other bands boards as well. You either sold those tickets (if you had them) or your a lyin shit. My guess is the second.

    Always douted your big talk...now more than ever.

    And who gives a shit about how many times you've been at that oversized barn, the Garden.. Whhoopee

    PJ..play ALPINE ya dogs! :)
