    They also said the sale ends on friday... while they say it will sell out why have a ending time the following day? Im sure they have most of the tickets... 1500 is a small Pearl Jam show.

    they list an ending time so that people don't complain about not being told when the sale ends!....even though it will be a quick sell-out, people will still air their sour grapes.

    We should have a contest to determine who was "victimized" the most by not getting tix!...I can only imagine the complaints!

    Ok, I'll go ahead and sound like a prick, here.


    If you don't think you can make it to the show, but *hope* the stars align for your job, flight, etc, please dont get tickets and block out someone who DEFINITELY would use those tickets otherwise.

    I would hate to see 20-30 people buy tix, only to have them go to waste and have 20-30 people who could have gone, only to sit on the sidelines.

    If you can, fine, if you are unsure, please just think about it long and hard.

    Please think before you purchase.

    That is all.

    I have a friend who has worked closely to the band, and she said that show will probably begin around 10 or so. The band has a previous engagement early in the evening, and the reason why it's 18+ is because of the start time.

    Actually I heard (from 10club) that it is the theatre itself that limits it to 18+. We might go and hope we can hear it from outside since we can't go in (I'll have my daughter with me).

    Here is a link to the Vic itself - this is billed as a 10 CLUB show!

    I can't get in, but I think it is really cool that that is happening. The energy in there will be amazing because of it I'm sure.

    I'm sure people will keep an eye out for you, but honestly, why are you not a member? You have been a message pit member since 2005, and you havent joined since then?

    Do you like nosebleed seats or what?:)

    At least there will be no bitching about 10C fan #s since it's GA...instead fans will be complaining about not be able to buy tix b/c of some internet/server issue. Afterwards people will be freaking out regarding confirmation emails.


    ...it's all been said before, but here we go again! The next few days on the board are going to be pretty trippy!

    Hey. this girl is my friend and shes from Europe. recently moved to US.
    Some ppl dont have the chance to get a membership when you live around here you know... its not US, im saying its a lot different.
    If youre not a member does that make you a less of a fan?
    Dont think so. You can love something as much as hardcore as the next person.

    They will be in the "tickets" section. I e-mailed about this.
    Also, I'd log in first if I were you....couldn't hurt, right? ;)
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Somebody just better buy Ed some "penis and crack", right? Heh heh heh

    Seriously though...will there be a poster? I'd really love to add to my wall!

    How cool would it be if we all got a free mini-poster gift or something?!
