    Keep this going. I've gone to Boston, Toronto, and the Gorge..surely people will come to Nashville, Atlanta, Dallas, Miami.

    besides..wouldn't a benefit show in New Orleans for the Gulf Coast be nice? I'd go!
    Wow.............you're ahead of me, yet I would not trade Halifax for those three shows.

    that's the beauty of it...you can't trade whatever show you've been to for others imo....each are a personal experience.

    Historically not considered the "south", but on a map it is in the southern half of the U.S....................I would be 10,000 times more interested in seeing a PJ show in Phoenix than I ever would in Boston..........blah

    withstanding the slings and arrows, and still hopeful

    lots of other pearl jam fans in other threads are really talking us down right now and i don't think it's fair. somebody please prove that ticket sales in the south were worse than anywhere else last tour...somebody please prove that all the northeast/west shows were sold out. they weren't.

    somebody please make this a sticky.


    somebody please tell us something.


    anything.


    please.


    it's not fair


    we love the band as much as anyone


    i've paid my 10c dues since 1994, my wife since early 1995.


    not fair to leave us in the dark this way


    why?

    ebay isn't evil people are

    We'll keep taking punches...........till their will grows tired!

    Hopefully that'll be sometime around early 2007. Keep posting people until this thread requires its own zip code. Keep posting until it is dripping with so much southern love and hospitality that it gets all "sticky".
