    JULY? :twisted:

    the Philly shows won't be announced until the 2nd week in July, after Ed's solo tour concludes,...

    8-)
    Let's hope all the remaining dates are announced at the same time. :)

    I think it is safe to say that this looks like a done deal. The only question that remains is WHEN the announcement will be made...

    Heard from Matt Cord on WMMR Philly this morning that it was clear that Eddie was being coy with saying, "Say goodbye to it (the Spectrum) for me." He then said, "yeah, they're definitely playing there this fall."

    Cord does not lie and is never wrong when it comes to PJ. I believe he is close w/ Jeff as they played basketball together the last few times PJ came through Philly. I have 100% confidence now that they will play the Spectrum in the fall.

    Unless the 10C have arranged a special ticketing deal with TM on these shows, tickets are going to be an absolute disaster to try and buy. This MSG last year x 1,000.

    Hopefully the 10C has a larger than usual ticket allocation for these shows like they seemed to have for both Toronto and Chicago.

    My theory is they will. Spectrum uses its own ticketing (ComcastTix), and I'm thinking PJ had leverage here, as the Spectrum is scrambling to book some more shows there before tearing it down.

    I wasn't aware of that but that is certainly great news!

    These 3 shows may get VERY close to being 10C only if there is no limit on 10C ticket sales.

    I would hope that the rest of the dates for 2009 will all be released together. Since we are only looking at a little over a month of touring (probably), which would likely amount to 15-20 shows MAX (possibly less), I don't see any reason why they won't all be announced together. And if that happens, I would assume there would be staggered on-sale dates for each show.

    That said, for Philly the site will crash. No question :)

    Just put in my vacation request for the 28th and 29th. PJ at the Spectrum will be epic. Ed's tongue in cheek last night was all the proof I needed.

    Sorry buddy, but you have way too many people with different sources saying you're completely wrong. Myself included. Hopefully you'll just be (naively) surprised when they are announced.

    Being a Sixers fan in CT means I sure do. Those were the days watching the Doc, Moses, Andrew Toney ect.. playing there. Eddie talked a lot about Dr. J last night.

    No offense, but that sways me a little less than the specific/exact information and nudges we've gotten from several credible posters, Radio DJs, and Eddie Vedder...

    why do people always freak out about tickets?

    tickets have not been hard to buy for a show in over 5 years... not to mention as the show gets closer this board gets flooded with extra's for face value or less

    i also assume they have negotiated to have a nice large stockpile of fan club tix...
