Come straight down to Moretti's after you pick up your tickets early from Will Call and hang with all your Pearl Jam friends.
ALL AGES can attend the pre-concert fundraiser. 21+ for the aftershow party.
Drink specials: TBA
SHOT GIRLS!
Beer specials: TBA
Food specials: TBA
Outdoor patio with bar and waiter service
Volley ball court
Moretti's can hold approx. 800 Pearl Jam fans, so no worries about being over-crowded
Parking
Sunday: You can park on the street anywhere near Jackson and there aren't any meters to worry about. There is also a very large back parking lot of the Teamsters Building which we would suggest you park in.
Monday: You can park on the street anywhere, though parking will be harder to find on a week day. In addition to the back Teamsters Bldg. parking lot, there is a pay-parking garage directly across the street from Moretti's that will cost $4 if you get your ticket validated at the bar. However, the garage closes its cash registers 11:30-11:45 PM. If your car is not out of the lot by then, it will get locked in and you are out of luck until the AM.
Shuttle Buses:
There will be multiple shuttles to bring you to the United Center before the show and return you to Moretti's after the show. The Shuttles are free!
Walking Map
The United Center is also approx 3 blocks for those who want to walk. We suggest partnering up or staying in a group, as it's not the safest area.

I so wish I could pick up my tickets early and party with everyone tonight but prior plans and my +1 prevent that. I had such a crazy dream about the concert last night . . . at least tomorrow after work I can hustle my ass over as quickly as possible to get some preparty going.
If anyone can advise which gate/ticket window the 10c tickets are at I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!!

add a +1 to cd21miller and by the looks of things, moretti's better be ready for the onslaught.

Word of warning to anyone who wants to take the Blue Line to the show...they've been doing construction between like Western and Clark/Lake every weekend for the past 6 months at least, so allow extra time (they have shuttle buses, but it still is slower than normal).
