    I don't think anyone is taking issue with you having your opinion and it being different than many of the others, mine included. I think many of us don't understand where you are coming from because this simply doesn't feel like the band is selling out to the rich or not staying consistent with their past stances. I can say I have pondered your posts, I like differing opinions for just that reason, but I don't agree and I don't understand why you keep making it over and over again. Let's agree to disagree.

    Btw, I think Janet Jackson is selling tickets at over $200 just get in the door at Madison Square Garden. Now that, I think we can all agree, is absurd.

    Enjoy the weekend. I'm done with this thread.


    Janet Jackson doesnt have prolonged speeches about the evils of wealth.

    and now have you read anything about the Robin Hood Foundation
    According to Fortune Magazine, "Robin Hood was a pioneer in what is now called venture philanthropy, or charity that embraces free-market forces
    Now i believe, Pearl Jam are using free market forces here, and using them for good!

    Case closed!

    It is a $250.00 Concert ticket... that automatically means that a large percentage of their audience cant even consider going... and the odds are they'll do something to make it a "special" show.. meaning that Pearl Jam did something specifically for their wealthiest fans.... .

    it's not a show for their 'wealthiest fans' or their fans even, they agreed to participate in a benefit performance. This organization, I believe they helped people/families affected by 9/11 and they help poor kids! Kids! How can you argue with that, seriously? Do you even live in NY? If you don't, or you can't go to the show any way, then what's the problem? Would you be mad if they had 'affordable' tickets (Ie: If they were $100 per ticket?)

    follow me here - if PJ could play a show for a charity that gave away 100% of the proceeds and the tickets cost $1,000 and the venue held 2,000 people, how much would that raise for the charity?
    answer - $2,000,000.

    now if they played the same venue for the same charity and the tix cost only $10, how much would that raise for the charity?
    answer - $20,000.

    great price for the fans, right?
    but how does that help the charity?

    who cares if only the rich can afford this show? in my mind, the richer the better for the charity.

    wake up skells!!! it is not about you!!!

    i am hoping for a callback sometime tomorrow.
    I have already made my initial contribution, and i have left 1 message.
    No doubt this girl is overwhelmed with the loyalty and tenacity of pearl jam fans everywhere.

    This is going to be some night- of the epic proportions.

    Good Luck everyone .

    i talked to lucy at 10:45 Wednesday morning. I had a charge pending on my CC on Thursday, around 5:00. The charge was officaily made on Saturday night.

    However, my call seemed to be made before the madness began, so i may not be a good example.
    can you feel this world with your heart and not your brain?
