I should by all rights be packed full of "Pearl Jam Karma" by now - I just got done listening to all the studio albums + Lost Dogs in chronological order...
I REALLY want these.
I'm thinking about cleaning up litter on the side of the road tomorrow morning before I log in
I'm thinking about cleaning up litter on the side of the road tomorrow morning before I log in
Couldn't hurt, eh?
Maybe I'll go help little old ladies across the street tomorrow.
I volunteered at the hospital today, but I think the karma knows that it was for my Med School application than anything. :P
Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?
I went into downtown Chi today to get some tattoo work done and met up with AvocadoLady afterwards for dinner and frosting
Over dinner we decided we'd do some reconnaissance at the Vic.
Hoooooly F***balls! The first floor of the place is so tiny it makes the Showbox look big. They were having "Brews & Views" night and when the lights went up it was sooo beautiful. Old fashioned style concert hall with gilded walls and an enormous stadium seating balcony. There literally isn't a bad seat in the place.
Lots of pizza & restaurants nearby (karaoke too), a Walgreens and bank across the streets and a liquor store caddycorner to it. Parking will be a bitch.
Seeing it though..so small and intense. Low lighting, intimate atmosphere. Graded levels for great views of the low stage all around. The guys will be able to get a good look at almost every single person's face. Wow.
I've been to a crapload of PJ concerts and all I can say after seeing this venue in person is.. wow.
i hope not to see this tomorrow...it's up as of this posting:

Why not be mediocre and be the best at it that you can be?
Yes tomorrow is without a doubt the hardest part. I really hope anyone who KNOWS they can't go or even might have a conflict does not try to get tickets. Leave tickets for those that KNOW they can go.
I hope so, too! Krisdababe and I will be there early Thursday morning. Initially, it was to enjoy Chicago for a few days before Lolla but now......
Lolla was gonna be my first show ever and now, for this to be announced and quite possibly be my first show, I am too excited to sleep. For fucks sake, its 5 in the morning! Keep your fingers crossed, Krista!!!!!!
me too! Tuesday night I dreamed I was trying to get them and failed... last night I know I dreamed about it again but can't remember :eek:
I'm also a nervous wreck

I've never done it before though... :eek: My stomach's in knots already. What will I be like in the internet cafe later?

make sure you have a credit card as a back up, in case your own does not work (for whatever stupid reason). And order with your brain, not the stomach .
I remember waiting for the Letterman Tix. When I got them I literally jumped up and down in my office. It was an exciting day. Good luck to all you people trying to get them.
It would be great to finally meet you at this show and on my birthday.
best of luck to you.
And you too we'll definitely celebrate your birthday in good style.
Sid, I've used this place before... they're pretty fast.
Mirella, thanks, I don't have a CC, I use prepaid voucher things (same as a cc really but they usually always work ). Well I've ordered stuff from PJ.com before with no problem
