  • will this thread ever be seriously taken into consiteration by the pj tour planners?

    or are we just wasting time? what's the number of post going to prove? tour gods can just look at it and say, half these people have posted here more than once. so the numbers are a moot point.

    Not much action on this thread since yesterday. Wow! Not even a single mention of the storied "Two for Tuesday" tradition. Guess the All Hallows Eve Festivities have put a damper on things. I just got back from trick or treating with my friend's kids. We took them around a huge rich neighborhood. Man those kids made out like bandits. Wish I was that lucky when I was a kid.

  • Movin this info to the last page for all to see.....

    This little movement seems to have grown some legs of its own....

    The *** Official Plant a Tree, Play the South*** petition has been merged with this thread.

    Im going to keep posting this until we get lots more people on board.

    We are hoping to get the attention of the band and do something great for the enviroment at the same time. What we would like to do is plant as many trees as possible in order to offset the "Carbon Footprint" (see Activism) of PJ'S tour when they come southward (and I know they will!)

    Below are some suggested links to foundations that will plant trees for small donations. They will even send you a certificate indicating that the trees have been planted and where they were planted. For as little as 10 bucks, only half the cost of your 10c membership, you can get 10 trees planted in honor of PJ's Southern Tour leg in 2007.

    My 10 trees are planted and they should be photosynthesising as we speak. Once my certificate arrives, it will be forwarded to the 10c.

    Folks, its entirely possible, with a little help we could get litterally thousands of trees planted with this little "Southern Homegrown Movement".

    The steps are simple:

    1) Pick a foundation from the links below (or any other that you like), or just visit your local home improvement
    megastore.

    2) Purchase your trees. (stealing your neighbor's trees and re-planting them is NOT recommended :D.)

    3) Have your certificate, if applicable, filled out to indicate that these trees were planted in honor of Pearl Jam's Southern US Tour in 2007.

    Or, if you plant a tree at your house, just snap a picture.

    4) Send your certificate, printed email receipt or photo to the 10c at the below address.

    ** SNAIL MAIL IS THE OPTIMAL ATTENTION GETTING METHOD.**
    on the outside of your envelope please write:
    "Trees for Pearl Jam Movement"

    It's that easy!

    Let's really get the band's attention in a positive way instead of just bitchin and moaning!:)

    Re-Forestation Links:

    http://www.arborday.org/join/TICTIM/index.cfm

    http://www.americanforeststore.org/

    http://www.saveourhemlocks.org/

    And the 10c address to mail in that certificate or photo:

    Pearl Jam
    PO Box 4570
    Seattle, WA
    98194-0570

    THANKS AGAIN TO ALL WHO HAVE OFFERED A BOATLOAD OF AWESOME SUGGESTIONS AND HELPFUL LINKS AND THANKS FOR BEING ALL AROUND COOL PEOPLE! :D

    LET'S MAKE THIS WORK! GO PLANT A TREE!



    Facts From the Arbor Day Foundation Site:

    Over the course of 50 years, a single tree can generate $31,250 of oxygen, provide $62,000 worth of air pollution control, recycle $37,500 worth of water, and control $31,500 worth of soil erosion.
    __ __ ____ ___ ___ _____ ___ _____ ___ ___ ___ __ __ ___

    So, based on the list we have so far (if youve planted a tree or ten, please add your name to the list that's circulating):

    We will have generated $ 4,687,500.00 worth of oxygen, provided $9,300,000.00 worth of air polution control, recycled $5,625,000.00 worth of water and controlled $4,725,000.00 worth of soil erosion!!! :D

    How about those numbers boys and girls...all from 15 people planting 10 trees each for a grand total of only $150 !!

    So, let me reitterate my point again in another way...for only $10...1/2 the cost of your 10c membership, 1/3 the cost of a tour poster (about 1/10 if you go and flip it on eBay) or the roughly the cost of 9 Wendy's Bacon Jr. Cheesburgers (plus tax)... you can help out a great cause and get PJ's attention in an environmentally friendly way....

    Help us offset the "Carbon Footprint" (see Activism header on 10c website) of PJ's tour, (and hopefully grab enough of their attention that they will add the South to their 2007 tour itenerary), by coughing up measly 10 bucks on your next payday (you're only gonna blow it on booze and smokes anyway)..... visit one of the suggested websites today and......

    PLANT A FEW TREES so PJ will PLAY THE SOUTH!

    I just heard this on internet radio from a guy who is in the local fisherman's union and has lots of connections. He said it was 110% true and that there will not be 10c tickets.

    Then I got an email from Bill Gates and he confirmed also. so it must be true. He then said he'd give me $5000 if I told 10 friends and they each told 10 friends. Then we'll all be flown to Disneyland.

    Oh one other thing... you have to promise to also look for little Stevie Grglick... he's an 8 year old boy who is lost and also has a strange disease which he got at the New Jersey II show. If we find him then he'll be able to tell us the entire 07 tour schedule.

    Finally... if you fold a $100 bill a certain way it reads "BOSTONLOU & PJ - 01/07" ... amazing!!


    So excited for the show!!

    And since you read this here... it's ALL true!!

    Fisherman's Union...MMMM...See there is something to that Wild Salmon purchase I mentioned earlier....

    UPDATE:

    ok... let me try to catch up here... i knew I should of stuck around for the Q&A after the big announcement

    so... in order

    there will be a boot... and it will be shipped in a pair of limited edition doc martens ... one of my cats will be puking in your boots... thus making the boot and booted in boots... highly collectible

    my house is south(west) of boston... so this is technically a southern show

    there will be 10 artists doing a poster for each of the dates ... they will be sold 1 at a time on a yet to be determined website and then will be shipped out 4 years after the show... and all the tubes will be marked EBAY

    no dvd but there will be a beta

    bostonlou's house is not a ticketmaster facility... sales will be through myspace

    every single song ever will be played... i own a shotgun and will ensure this is the case

    i haven't mentioned it to my wife... i was hoping she wouldn't notice

    PayPal is accepted but you must also send me cash to cover all PayPal fees

    t-shirts will not shrink... and there will be crack heads selling them in my drive way ... then after the show I'll confiscate all the t-shirts from them... this was fun when i saw it in camden

    matt will be there...

    ashton and demi and bruce are the openers... but they won't be singing... it will be a 3 way sex show

    all scalpers will be shot

    "if you grab a gatorade then everyone will want one" (thanks for the giggle civ)

    former workers will be allowed free admission... for a fee

    you cannot use the work yankee... even if you're from the south south... you'll be treated like a scalper

    Sox fans will have a special section with Theo

    there will be a ticket package... KY Jelly is the sponsor... keep an eye out for more details soon

    beer and pretzels are welcome


    this is so exciting

    I'm working on follow up dates for a Southern show at either Dangerboy's house or Tybird's...
    more to follow...
