    Yeah delusional :roll:. Everyone just be patient. Every tour fans act like they are entitled to every bit of information. I don't care if its one or one hundred calling that dude. It's all un-needed. Not to mention, "ohhh maybe I should call another place up that is rumored to be a venue".

    Why does every rabid Pearl Jam fan feel the need to post everything they come across just because they get a bug up their ass? You got info you aren't supposed to have, then you post the info on a public board practically encouraging people to do the same. Then you people don't see any problem with the box office getting flooded with calls about shit that isn't announced yet. I'm sorry but it is not this person's job to tell you info you shouldn't fucking have in the first place. If you call the spectrum and cant wait a day or two you are a douche bag.


    Thanks for calling me a douche bag. Now I'm sure I don't care about your thoughts on this subject.

    ...and if the box office is telling any random Joe who asks, I wouldn't be sure it's "info you aren't supposed to have".

    anyway... where's that "ignore" button again?


    So - who's happy about it being at The Spectrum?! :D

    Solar,

    This aggression won't stand...man! What's really wrong? You sound like you can't make the spectrum shows and now you have to piss in everyones' cheerios. It's okay we'll rock out for you.


    Thanks for the info!

    What's really wrong? Message boards + Pearl Jam fans who have no patience... that's what's wrong. I know what's going on later this fall but I have the ability to bite my tongue and let the information come out like it was intended.

    You actually think 1000 people are gonna call all day to ask for the same answer the OP got?
    +1. It's the Pearl Jam Forums - not CNN. I don't think more than 5-10 people would read this thread and call, just to confirm exactly what the OP has already stated.

    yes...this person is obviously delusional. if the OP already called, why would i? and i'm thinking most people are thinking the same.
    The way I took the OP was if people wanted to call other rumored venues i.e. OZ, MSG, etc...not for others to call the Spectrum. What are we, idiots? :D

    yeah, I find all this unadulterated excitement annoying. We should go back to complaining about the length of Backspacer.

    First of all - you are delusional if you think that many people will be calling the Spectrum, after we've just received, thanks to the OP, confirmation that this is a fact, not a rumour. Second of all, I don't understand why you feel the need to move to the defensive and start saying things like that.

    yet somehow you sound the most douche-like. How dare someone call an info number for info... that's preposterous. Without people like the OP, these shows wouldn't have been rumored for the past 3-6 months.

    by the way, awesome Willy Wonka reference Hoff.
    -one thing to remember, always have a good time, all the time

    sorry this isn't exclusive to PJ fans. look at what Phish phans have been doing with the whole "Save the Date" festival: http://jamtopia.com/blog/phish-halloween-festival-info/


    patience IS a virtue, but what's the fun in that? if you have info, spill the beans! hopefully it's as concrete as CJMST3K's info.

    Solarworld,
    Seriously, poor form? If you can't share in the excitement don't read the threads. All he did was confirm what we think is coming. Where's the harm in that? And I think your argument that now everyone will be calling the venue is BS. Can't make the show? So sorry. I'll be there.

    I'll have plenty of opportunity to see them out west, so everyone claiming I'm jealous is wrong. It annoys me when fans feel they are entitled to information they shouldn't have yet. If you dont get that... fine.

    It annoys me when people call other people "douchebags" in an attempt to prevent them from recognizing their freedom of speech.

    Tensions are high whenever a tweet is atop the board, as even while all signs from the tweet point to something obvious, people could find that one little word that gives them hope for their home town, and thus can't swallow news of it actually being what it said it was going to be... :?

    Breathe and relax.

    who said entitled?
    the OP made a cold call, if he 'shouldn't have' said info, joe at the box office should not have told him, right? and if that were the case....we'd not have this thread, end of story. lots of people check websites, call venues, all in the HOPEs of some info.....not out of some sense of entitlement. and again, they get diddly unless some website or some venue spills it. and so it goes...
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow
