Nervous Wreck About Ticket Purchase!

edited March 2008 in The Porch
Holy crap! I was thinking about it all weekend. Usually I can put these things out of my mind then Bam, just sit at computer and do my thing, get (or try to get) tickets. No luck w/ 10c? Then TicketMaster.

Not this time. I'm like a possessed caged animal! Pacing and looking at my computer screen like its food.

All I can think of...


I am finally admitting...


I AM A PEARL JAM ADDICT.
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Yeah, kinda fun till Friday!

    Every tour I go to CVS and get a plastic button closure folder file. We put all of our confirmations and hotel reservations ect. in it, then print a label with the dates and name of the city. It's like our little Pearl Jam travel packet.
    Waiting until I get first set of tickets before buying the folder, even though I already have a hotel in NYC!!
    I got my Roo folder a week before tickets went on sale.

    I just have the sickness.

    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    I'll be buying mine from work. I'll just make sure they don't assign me anything for about a 1/2 hr window.

    I will be so relieved when this is all over on thursday and i have all my tickets looking sweet in my profile.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Likewise stoneg, I feel like a grizzled old war veteran having flashbacks. Tenclub messed me up last tour, and I don't think I'll ever truly be the same
