Do you Believe in The Secret?

I have been a fan since I saw the Jeremy video on MTV when it was first released. I have been to 6-8 concerts, don't keep precise track, but have seen the band every time they have been in the DC area except for the DAR show with Neil Young, including this year.
When I found out about Eddie's solo show, I had never felt more confident about getting tickets. All of my instincts were telling me this was meant to happen. About a year ago, my son got into trouble with the law, a minor offense. He had just been accepted to college and had everything going for him. But, what can I say, he's a stupid, naive teenager. At the time, all the buzz was going around about The Secret, which broken down to it's simplest form is the power of positive thinking. When my son was scheduled to go on trial, I would not allow myself to believe he was going to be prosecuted. He wasn't. Not even PBJ. I have since used The Secret to bring about other positive events and thoughts into my life.
My best friend and I share a membership to 10C. She pays for the membership every year, I get the tickets. I used The Secret to make that happen. When tickets were about to go on sale, I had pictures of Eddie during the Verizon Center concert at my desk and I was listening to the In the Wild soundtrack. When I logged on for the pre-sale I had the buy button, only to discover that our membership renewal had not been processed, apparently the check got lost in the mail and my friend didn't think to follow up before tickets went on sale. Would have been too late anyway.
Ok, there's still Ticketmaster. We both tried. Nothing. It occurred to me last night, that I have not exhausted all options. I still believe I am supposed to be at one of those shows. I log onto Ticketmaster every day in the hopes that by some fluke Warner Theatre has released additional tickets.
So, I'm reaching out to the last place I know of . . . the fans. I truly believe that someone is out there who is in a situation to be able to sell me two tickets for the Solo Eddie Vedder show in Washington DC. I know this thread will get buried in all of the other threads, but I'm not going to let it. The concert is only a few weeks away. If you are the person that is supposed to complete this circle for me, send me a PM. Most of you will think this is just some random plea just like everyone else who wants to go and wasn't lucky enough to score tickets. That's fine. Because somewhere out there is the person who has been picked through fate to make this happen. I will revive this thread periodically until the concert is over and I can post my memories and pictures for all to see. Thank you for your time.

You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense
Or you can come to terms and realize

strong enough for a man--
but made for a woman.The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride." And we...kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

I'm not about buying from scalpers, but tickets have gone down and what I would consider reasonable for such a special show. Wait until a couple days before. Tickets are going down and down every day!0

I lost a sneeze one time. It was on the brink of coming out but I lost it. I used the ways of the secret and thought about sneezing all day. Finally after 3 days, I sneezed and had a series of 11 more sneezes. I damaged my sinuses. Thanks the secret! I'm glad I didn't think about getting rid of constipation.0

Better than ebay. At least you can call your credit card to dispute any charges with stubhub. It maybe a bit more expensive.0
