If pearl jam tours this year i wanted to follow them around around the east coast so i kindly ask these two questions, 1. how much do you think it would cost to do this since im bad at math and i dont really have any experiences with their ticket prices and 2 is it worth it to do this alone. Any help is appreciated :mrgreen:

    it all depends on where you live...

    how many shows you plan on attending...

    where the shows are located....

    if someone else splits the cost with you...

    will you eat out for every meal or eat pp&j every day- every meal :mrgreen:

    if you want any merchandise (shirts, posters, etc...)

    if you plan on drinking at the concerts....

    if you smoke...

    I don't think you'd be alone. Because every show, there is usually a Pre-party organized by Wishlist. A lot of people attend that party and you get to meet a lot of fans and make new friends. So, the more shows you go to, the better chance you get as far as making friends goes. To answer your second question as to how much it costs, well, that's really up to you. Where are you coming from? How many shows are you planning to hit? What kind of accommodations are you looking for..etc.

    I did it alone last summer and it was totally worth it. I split tickets with a fellow ten clubber and pricelined my hotels so the financial hit wasn't that horrible. Definitely do it, if you can.

    Fuck yeah! Left Coasters are dying for a shot of that Pearl Jam goodness :)

    I'd say a week-long Fillmore residency (I am testing to see if I say it often enough maybe it will come true :P)
