    Well it's kinda easy to understand from my angle having lived in both areas. PJ tickets are so hard to get here, and the southerners have been making waves for years on the board about getting shows. Then they get shows and dont even sell out the pre-sale.

    For me an added thing is that the south actually hasnt ever gotten over the civil war. It's an accepted fact. That and the religous right used the south and it's new large population to dominate politics since 94. There is a natural animosity there. That's how I see it anyways.

    No one even knows the portion of tickets allotted to 10c per arena. This is all just dumb.

    Oh, and next time something goes wrong with a NE sale I should remember to make a thread about how lame the crowds in the US are compared to the crowds in Italy :rolleyes:

    I have a 8 games package to see the Knicks at MSG. Granted, the knicks suck but the fans are just a disgrace. The other day they were playing Memphis. There were dozens of red and yellow flags. Funny I thought, didn't know Tennessee had a red and yellow flag. Then, when the Spanish player was called on the court, everyone started cheering and chanting. There were holas, it was soooo much fun. Of course, the red and yellow flags were Spanish flags! I hate to generalize, but sometimes I feel Americans only go to sporting or musical events to get drunk, and you can't have good, happy, cordinated chanting while wasted :)

    Anyway, enjoy the shows southerners, and ignore the hating :)

    Im actually ashamed to call myself a Yankee right now. Hang in there Southern folkes, you'll get yours. We all know the south is where its at anyway. Unless you like rude fat people, grey skies, old buildings, traffic, and pot holes.

    If a 10C ticket is the same price as a Ticketmaster ticket, then why buy a 10C ticket?

    Maybe that's why they didn't sell out the "southern" shows.

    I'm not looking to bash any of our fellow jammers from the south, but I am actually really surprised that Ten Club tickets are still available for the FL, SC, and VA shows.

    I think that they add more shows and play more shows up North because
    they sell more albums here
    plus... if they sell out tix through the fan club quickly, that most likely means there are more fan club members in this area or that are more likely to travel to this area. That is actually a good thing, they make sure everyone gets to a show
    I remember MSG selling out just on fan club alone. That doesnt cover enough people for just one show.

    It gets even crazier when you factor in suburbs.

    Metro NYC population is 18 million
    Metro Philly is 5.8 mil
    Metro Boston is 4.5 mil
    Metro DC is 5.2 mil

    Pittsburgh 10C sold out within a couple hours. So did Cleveland, I believe. (Both in 2006).

    Both are smaller than the Tampa area...even more so when you factor in suburbs and cities around it (Pittsburgh is next to....farmlands and a 5 hour Philly/Cleveland drive)

    Ok, well if all the regular people on the board from the South got their tickets what do you people care? And I see no hatred coming from people in the south, it seems to be coming from people up north and it is so ignorant. It makes no sense. So who is the one that isn't over the Civil War? I never hear anyone talk bad about the North but people talk bad about the South constantly on here. Give it up with the sterotypes and grow up people.
    Pearl Jam is touring! I would love to see PJ in NYC and I'm happy for every person that is going to those shows. You know they will kick ass. How come people give a shit if the 10C tickets sold out or not in Florida. The people on the board got their tickets. We have gotten the show we waited so long for and we are happy and thankful. Why can't you feel the same way?
    And as far as politics go then you must hate the midwest too because I'm guessing you have conveniently forgotten they all voted republican too.

    Fucj the South!!! They will not rise again. They complain and complain and complain that PJ doesnt tour there. Now that they are, The dunb, broke whatever they are people dont even go to the show. WTF!!!! NYC sells out in 45 minutes and they are playing the same amount of shows in NYC as Florida. Please SOUTHENERS, never again complain or ask for shows in your NECK of the woods. Leave that for real fans who use the tickets.
