All the crying and whining yet both shows are still available at 2:00...all that bum rushing the site and complaining and stressing was for nothing. If you want to go, buy your pair and shut up.
If they clearly said "Toronto and Chicago going on sale" the site would not have crashed. It's TC's fault - why can't they just communicate. I'm not gonna blame the fans on this for TC's lack of communication.
ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you.

holy crap, stop bitching everyone that can't go is just mad that it isnt by them haha seriously. I'm so excited i live in chicago these last two weeks have been so shitty ive done so much for my family and work and have got nothing in return. This is prove that you do good things, something good will happen to you. I had NO idea about this i was driving home from good ol' Moraine Valley CC and heard Brother on the radio. After the song they said they were playin the UC at the end of august and tix to the gen pub wnet on sale saturday. I opened my phone went to Tc.net and saw that tix were onsale for the presale i was freaking out figuring they were all gone. Got home at 230 pm central time went to the bank deposited 150 then bought them at 3 im so happy they were still available. Also, whoever said Uniter Center is a dump for a concert spot, the show i saw in 06 there was great and i had terrible upperdeck nosebleed ticketmaster seats, so idk what you heard. IM SO EXCITED
Any word on an opening band for any of these shows???

Heard about the Chicago show on the radio at work. Got my tickets at at 4:30 Chicago time, still not sold out. Strange way of doing things. Would have loved to see Alpine over the United Center, but fuck it, its a Pearl Jam show.
"so this is how liberty ends, with thunderous applause"
While I HATE the United Center I just grabbed tickets. Sales are slow, so maybe I'll get seats where the sound is reasonable. Grabbed tickets at 4:30 Central time. Strange...Chicago tix are usually like pullin teeth
tyler-
exactly i hate when everyone whines about where the shows are, and you know its the people that sit in the first 5 rows every show they go to. Fuckin spoiled, i have a very shitty TC number and am grateful just to go to a show. Idc where it is, either make plans to get there if you're that big of a fan you'll find a way, or just wait to they come to you. Here in chicago I wasn't happy about the 08 tour announcement but i made plans saved money, flew out to NC and drove to VA beach and had a great time.
King Midget- everyone keeps saying the UC sound sucks, who have you seen there? I saw the Second show of 06 and saw Kanye West there last year i never had a problem with the sound,

I'm with ya...still hopin for Alpine or even Xcel in the Cities. Better than the United Center...damn they have to find a different Chi-town venue... :roll:
Thank You 10c!!! I've got two for Chicago. I got home and my wife was wondering why I didn't know about the Chicago show and her friend already had tickets. I was stumped and went to the site and got two quick tickets. This is the best fan club period. For those that complain, there aren't many other bands that care as much about their fans as PJ.

Just PJ...maybe it was just the sound set-up in '06. Got tix...hopin it improves. I guess I get to see them...shouldn't complain.. Cheers!
this is your city, come back to Great Woods in MASS THIS SUMMER!!
It would be great to have them in Boston AGAIN. We have been truly blessed here. But I disagree with them playing Mansfield because of the curfew and ALL the parking lot issues.

Kanye West??? You deserve a shitty number, man.
I like how all the people who are saying "quit bitching" are the people who live in Chicago or are able to see a show. I'd be grateful for a show too but they haven't played within 1000 miles of me since 2006.

Just a question: folks got an e-mail from 10c making this announcement? I haven't gotten anything. Not that I can travel to either, but curious.
I got an email a few hours after they went on sale.
Beautiful! I haven't gotten shit, as usual. Of course, I did get the Europe email last week or whenever it was.... first email I've gotten from the ten club in over a year. There are a huge chunk of us who get NO emails from them ever cause their system is so screwed up (talking about since BEFORE the board/club merge thingy).

Pearl Jam is welcome in New England anytime. We've been pretty lucky with the frequency of shows, but I can't help being greedy and wanting more.

I love all the people who write "this update sucks i been sitting around all day waiting....and i'm not buying tickets to those shows"....guess what? it's your fault the damn thing crashes. the clue was fucking obvious (chicago and toronto).
Anyway, got my 2 for chicago!....better update my board signature!
im sorry, you guys have been talking about the clues. where were these clues? did it say something different in the news section of the homepage before the email went out insinuating where the shows were gonna be? was it in a message post? I really am not sure what these clues are all about, and its irrelevant as I was shocked, at 7.30 I was able to buy to toronto tickets like i was going to the store to buy milk. All along I was waiting for some error to pop up. Can't Wait! But am really curious what the clues you guys are reffering too and where they were.
I got a set a tickets for the Chicago show (haven't been to the Second City since 1989, I was 8 years old) and I'm looking forward to making a weekend out of it! I'm not too confident in my seniority though, I've only been a member since 2003, and I know some people have been in the 10C for well over a decade!!!
Looking forward to meeting some other PJ fans, I love hearing stories of shows past! Any tips on great places to eat at or fun things to do in Chicago? I'm from Baton Rouge and I know there's a lot of South LA transports up there, I'll have to bring some Purple and Gold.

I don't know what happened earlier, but this was the coolest surprise ever. I got my tickets for Chicago around 4 (central) today when a friend called to tell me about the announcement. I'm used to staking out for 10c tix, but this was not even an issue.
I'm PUMPED!

I got a pair for Chicago at 7:40 est with no problems, shocked actually that tickets were still available. This will be my first visit to Chicago outside of changing planes, so I am excited to check it out and hopefully catch a Cubs game on the Tuesday after the show.

Agreed...really disappointed in '06. Sound was Terrible.
So...the bands taking an extended break before ACL?????
Pretty pumped I'll get to see them outdoors this summer!
exactly i hate when everyone whines about where the shows are, and you know its the people that sit in the first 5 rows every show they go to. Fuckin spoiled, i have a very shitty TC number and am grateful just to go to a show. Idc where it is, either make plans to get there if you're that big of a fan you'll find a way, or just wait to they come to you. Here in chicago I wasn't happy about the 08 tour announcement but i made plans saved money, flew out to NC and drove to VA beach and had a great time.
King Midget- everyone keeps saying the UC sound sucks, who have you seen there? I saw the Second show of 06 and saw Kanye West there last year i never had a problem with the sound,
I'm with ya...still hopin for Alpine or even Xcel in the Cities. Better than the United Center...damn they have to find a different Chi-town venue... :roll:
Just PJ...maybe it was just the sound set-up in '06. Got tix...hopin it improves. I guess I get to see them...shouldn't complain.. Cheers!
the email arrived 3 hours after the tix went on sale
