I'm gonna do my best to make it and meet some of you clowns!
well, we do have a plan to do a ymca party or coyote ugly type of dancing on the bar tables.
we'll just have to wait and see. only if the pub will let us. :P
I certainly hope not. That would get tiring very quick. Besides, I want my system to be cleansed of PJ prior to the show. I'll enjoy it more.
That said, "all-request" would be nice. Maybe we could come up with a list of songs/artists beforehand that we all want to hear?
Not sure yet! During the 2 Montreal Ed PreParty's, with TV's, Stereo's etc.. it was the World Cup Soccor jams. I had stuff to play, but their DVD player wasn't working. D'oh!
The 2 Toronto Ed PreParty's last August, the supervisor played various mixes of kick ass rock! I love that place, the Elephant & Castle Pub!
I should be there with a friend...and possibly 6 family members if I can convince them to come downtown early enough. Pearl Jam in Toronto has always constituted a great big, dysfunctional family reunion as far as we're concerned. Had a great time at the pre-parties last summer in Toronto, can't wait to see everyone again!
Love doing those PreParties last August! Erics pic of my lemon aid disaster is up for all to see. But it's ok!
i shouldn't have been so quick to say that i will not attend. there is a slight chance that i may yet show. it's too far away. i do know that i am spending the day at the ex, but non-ex adult beverage prices are appealing, and i do enjoy supporting good causes. i'm changing my attendance status to 'maybe +1'.
If so, are people doing the mass transit to the venue ??
1. I think it's crazy that we've been to 3 of the same shows spanning more than 10 years, and there's 100% chance we've never met. (roch 94, buff 96, hartford 08)... although maybe less surprising on this board.
1a. is the quote "They came onstage in purple darkness and candlelight and opened with 'Wash'." from rochester 94? that was a SICK opening. it was all dark, you could barely see that they were on stage and then "ooooooohhhh pleeeeeaaaassseee let it rain today....". 2nd only to release at MSG II (08) for the 9 openers I've been lucky enough to see.
2. and more relevant to this thread: I'm (still) a definite maybe for any pre-party. Depends on how early I can get on the road from Albany on Friday AM. It's my b-day... i would like to, um... party?

1. Yes, that's Rochester '94 I'm referring to !
Still gives me the chills. I was on the floor in the front row until 'Go'
when I was trampled by the bum rush and had to step outside in the snow
for fresh air. Then made it back in but took a seat out of the mayhem.

2. I guess the pre-part is at the Elephant & Castle.
My name is James. Lokk for me there. I'll be the guy with
the shit-eating grin on my face !!!!
3. On a serious not, who are you coming with ?
Do you have a room ? Would you be interested in splitting
a room at the Delta Chelsea ? I have a reservation already for my
wife and I. Let me know. Peace.

1) sweetness. I made it the whole show pretty close and was only able to withstand a few songs in front. I was SUPER worried due to the fact that I had knee surgery just 2 months before (made it out ok tho!).
2) ok... i will be the other guy with the same shit eatin' grin. we should be easy to spot. I'm Dave. The first page of this thread doesn't have the bar listed yet, but there's time. lookin forward to meeting you.
3) I booked the Sheraton already or I'd love to split with ya. I got it on priceline so it's already paid. Right now, I'm only staying Friday night. I'm waiting on someone to get back to me if they can go or not. If not, I have a list of a few (million) people who've already asked to fill that spot. So while I don't know yet who I'm going with, it's pretty clear I won't be searching very hard.

Yep, all booked. Everything's ready to go. *knock on wood*

Funny the article mentions Pearl Jam's & Eddie's lyrics then proceeds to quote a Ben Harper song????????????????
Nice!

What's the dilly, silly ?
Is the pre-party at the Delta Chelsea or what ???
If so, are people doing the mass transit to the venue ??

I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I said, I dont want it.
I just need it.
To breathe, to feel, to know Im alive.
Delta Chelsea? That's the hotel I will be staying.
The Ed '08 Toronto Preparty's was next door to the Chelsea, at the Elephant & Castle Pub!
I have sent an email to the Brazan Irish Pub. I hope we can score the day with them!
Thanks for hooking me up with Jon at the Delta Chelsea.
I was wondering how you will be getting to the show from there ?
Not looking forward to drinking at the pre-party and having to drive in
downtown TO to the show.

np!
will probably catch a cab to the brazan pub, which i'm hoping we can get that place!
from there, it's less then a 10 minute walk to the molson amp.
email we got from 10club said tickets will be given around 10am? so i'll pick those up first, then hit the hockey hall of fame.
This is my kind of love...
