    Hey Albe...is your name like the song "The Reason Albe" :lol: sorry...couldn't resist...

    LOL, no, but it should be. It's short for "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey". I seriously make my niece and nephew sing "we're so sorry Uncle Albert" when they do something wrong.

    If they play the 31st....Great!!!!!

    If not....

    Ill live........



    you sure? ;)



    seriously, of course in the scheme of things...it's no big deal. i am happy i have a show on the horizon. it's the not knowing, the waiting, the what-ifs....they are fun and filled with excitement/anticipation for awhile, but that gets replaced with just wanting to know, one way or another.

    i honestly think HOW they go about planning their tours has so completely altered, a lot more loosey-goosey.....and everything gets so last-minute...plan some shows here, then plan a few there......i don't think there is a 'grand picture' of a tour nowadays. why, idk....but it is how it seems to me. i might be way off of course.....but i don't see why else announcements would change so drastically.

    and yes, i would still travel to see pj, simply b/c i like to travel and combine some live pj....but it simply makes it ALL so much easier for everyone...whether they do want to travel or stay close to home...or simply figure out wtf they are going to do and where they'd like to go, what fits for their lives and schedules and budgets. eh well....... :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    Anyone call the Spectrum or Comcast Ticketing today?

    If we keep harassing them maybe they will crack and give us the information we so desperately want. :)

    They feel if another show is added, they lose some of that and don't get what they paid for. I can't blame them.

    Either they don't get what they paid for, or they have to pay double. Either way, it won't help.

    This type of thinking is simply mind-boggling.
    A) you make it seem as if the 10/30 tix were priced higher than the 10/28 shows b/c it was officially billed as "the last show at Spectrum". they are priced the same. what you are paying for is a concert - and accordingly you ARE getting what you paid for, and it happens to be the same cost as 10/28, and the same cost as what 10/31 would cost
    B) why kind of fan actually complains about his favorite band ADDING shows - this is LUDICCROUS
    C) while fans who got tix to the 10/30 show SOLELY b/c 10/30 was dubbed as "the last ever at the spectrum!" maybe slightly "put out" (and I don't believe man fans outwardly said, "well, i only want to catch PJ one time on this tour - and so i'll go to that last one at the spectrum." Rather I bet most fans in Philly bought tix to BOTH shows - and would be buying tix to both shows even if it was being played at the Wachovia Center)... what about hte fans who didn't get 10c tix to the 10/30 show? why shouldn't they get a chance at 10c 10/31 tix.

    Again, no premium was charged to buy tix to the 10/30 show. This type of "they didn't get what they paid for, if another show is added" is just beyond belief.

    I purchased a 10/30 ticket, and I will jump for joy if 10/31 is added.

    My god.

    Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning! :)

    It's a fair argument on both sides... my only complaint is that they didn't do rollover presales like in past tours so at least we had an idea of whether or not it was even possible. I tihnk that would have made all of these threads go away a bit and people could have made more educated decisions.

    I can see the other side too... just anxiously awaiting an announcement like everyone else now!

    With every passing day I think the chances of a Halloween show are decreasing. I'm just more concerned from a "the show before the last show is always the best" perspective. I have 10C seats for the 28th but will be behind the stage for the 30th. It messes everything up from a seating standpoint if they add this mythical 31st show.

    There is nothing to crack, the people answering the phones know less about these concerts than we do.

    No new's! Argh! The waiting is the hardest part! Not sure why they can't let us all relax about this.
    Start a thread and say .. "HEY! We will inform you all a day or so before ticket's go on sale! There won't be no 10club ticket's on sale without notice. So back to work, and have fun in the sun!"
    I mean something! Many people don't care, but many of us do care & think about it each day.

    Kat, Sea,
    how about throwing us a little bone here.. a small something by end of day today or first thing tomorrow morning... doesn't even have to disclose all info, just something like:
    "don't worry guys, nothing today, but yes, info is on the way______________ (enter day of next week here). Have a safe, great weekend."

    maybe?

    *and yes, i give you full permission to copy verbatim or paraphrase the above quote.
