well its good that at least someone is positive here...

for the record, I'm not negative...just frustrated that this show wasn't announced through the pearljam.com website. I might have tried but it's a moot point now. Again, SUCK THE MESSAGE BOARD TEET!!!

I don't carry it in my wallet but your address on the flyer is your 'card'-- don't be an ass...

the principle remains. http://www.pearljam.com is TOTALLY different than http://www.messagearmpitpearljam.com. If I visit the main website, I should BAMMM--- see the show.

explain the Katrina Benefit at Chicago HOB. It was for charity... it was a grand a ticket and it was advertised online. 10C gave out 80 dollar tickets to people with a 60blah-blah-blah zipcode. Robert Plant blows PJ away and it was still advertised at pearljam.com.

Why advertise one and not the other?

--and I'm out. I've stated my arguement and you're all wrong, I'm right. This show should've been advertised on

www.pearljam.com but it wasn't.

they sold their tickets either way so it doesn't matter to them...

Name calling is uncalled for. I don't have a member ship so I don't know
This show is not being organized through nor are tickets being sold through the 10 Club. That is the difference. It's for this particular charity and being run through same charity

Are you even going to the show? Are you in or can you get to NY? If you are going you should rejoice and if you can't go, then what difference does it make if they advertise it or not?

that was my point from the beginning---

I DON"T CARE THAT 10C ISN"T SELLING TICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


http://www.pearljam.com SHOULD HAVE LISTED THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THEY DIDN"T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's my only beef.

I can get to NY in a heartbeat as my bro is a pilot. I'm not trying for tickets--I enjoy my PJ stress-free. RRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My point from the beginning was that PJ should have announced this show on their website!

The fact that NOT A SINGLE PERSON agrees with me is a little concerning...

there's no contract that says we are on the "first to know about a show" list...

of course there isn't...

still, though... if you were in a band, wouldn't you announce your shows on your own personal dot com?

if one person would agree with me, I would go to bed.

that's your only point, that it wasn't on the website?? What about saying you are 'entitled' to know?
Ok well I felt like this, since it was being run by this Robin HOod organization and not a traditional concert or something being offered through the 10 Club, that's why it's not being posted and to me, that makes sense,
However,
I did a Google search for "Pearl Jam" and now the word must be out because the 3rd result is this article
http://www.nme.com/news/pearl-jam/36955

So now that is kind of like, huh?
if it's being posted online like that,
ok fine, go to bed, I see what you are saying. But I disagree that you are "entitled" to know b/c you have your 10 Club membership and I disagree with that wholeheartedly.

Isn't NME a British magazine? I see where it says 'by our NY staff" at the bottom of it

ok, I get it. Check here every day of my life AND do a google search of Pearl Jam shows.

entitled is a strong word... one that shouldn't be thrown around.

Should Pearl Jam list their shows on their own personal website...

I guess not.

Live and learn and rock and roll!

RRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't say that, I'm pointing out to you that I sort of see what you are saying b/c if the story makes #3 in a Google search result but it's not posted on their own site, that is a little unusual.
But I think they must have a reason why they didn't adverstise it

and I agree about the word entitled. It was the exact word that you used.
You said you were entitled to know b/c you were a card-carrying member of the 10 Club.

I DO feel a little bit entitled.

I am a card carrying member of the Pearl Jam fan club and I should know about EVERY show they are playing.

So, how was this show announced? if it wasn't on the Pearl Jam fan-club site?

I think that this show should've been advertised on the fan-club site. What harm would that have been?

Listen. (read?)

From post ONE, I stated my discontent of pearljam.com NOT announcing this show. That was my only beef. I pay dues every year-- shouldn't I be aware of every pearl jam show? 10C or not--- the shows should be announced.

a 'heads up' would've been nice. That's been my point all along. As a paying fan club member, I feel that this show should have been announced.

'entitled' is a strong word but I agree with the sentiment. The people that live at this website were rewarded while everyone else was penalyzed. From now on, I will pay more attention to this place--- they don't update their rss feed so I'll check in 4 times a day.

word of mouth mostly... a few news articles... i heard rumors about it roughly two weeks ago

vedder_soup

jesus, this thing was first mentioned on here weeks ago, and there have almost been daily theads about it!

Get with the times people! you know you almost nearly get all info here first rather than through the 10c!

I first heard this date mentioned before the tour was announced!

Thanks. I'm with you. I think that the Beacon show(or any other concert, for that matter) should've been posted on the FAN-CLUB site. Personally, i would'nt be able swing the show, but be that as it may>IT SHOULD'VE BEEN POSTED!!

jimbojones1138

perhaps they wanted to avoid yet another clusterfuck that usually ensues when pj announces even an arena show, such as the garden... for example the situation where some fanclub "member" who also pays their so called "dues" putting the presale password up for sale on ebay...

I really would wish people would stop bitching. Fucking crybabies, oh it wasn't announced fucking wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Bitches.

camaros

i'm still waiting for my ticket purchases to show up on my CC, so i think they are still busy over there. i made the donation on wednesday and it is still pending on my CC so I think that has to post before they add the ticket purchases.

Red Lukin

Is there any jammer who's purchased tix want to help out another jammer? If you're able to grab another pair I'll pay for the pair plus split the donation with you.

I've left messages, but just haven't heard back yet.

NYbenben

Are there still tickets available? is the show sold out yet?
