    the post on Philly Music Store has been edited since yesterday.

    they added question marks to the title: Pearl Jam To Add 2 More Philly Shows ?!?

    and added: According to a contact at Comcast, PEARL JAM are going to be announce 2 more Philly dates !!!

    PEARL JAM will apparently be adding 2 more concerts at the legendary Spectrum on 10/27 and 10/31 !!!

    Don't forget the new last line

    "If this is for real!" :lol:



    i was thinking all that as well...but isn't all that in the comments section?
    looks to me like they removed whatever article was there (i never saw it at all, only saw the posts about it right now)....checked it out, and looks like white blank space...and then comments? and yes, the "if this is for real" made me laugh too...
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    aha...yes. i initially was thinking that was the comments section, not the actual article.


    According to a contact at Comcast, PEARL JAM are going to be announce 2 more Philly dates !!!

    PEARL JAM will apparently be adding 2 more concerts at the legendary Spectrum on 10/27 and 10/31 !!!

    They will be the last concerts ever played at the beloved and historic showplace of America !!!

    So, Pearl Jam’s mini-tour of 9 dates which originally ended with 2 concerts on 10/28 & 10/30 at the Spectrum will now be increased to an 11 date mini-tour with the last 4 concerts taking place at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, PA before the venue is demolished to make way for an entertainment complex.

    Pearl Jam will play on 10/27, 10/28, 10/30 and 10/31 !!!

    If this rumour is correct!

    The 10/28 and 10/30 concerts SOLD OUT in minutes !!!

    Ticket on sale date and times will be announced shortly !!!

    If this is for real!

    i mean, the "if this is for real" bit just seems....odd for an article. :lol:
    also, whole lot of exclamation points too. odd.
    reads a whole lot more like a comment, or a post here ;), than an news article.
    however, i hope it's TRUE...and we get an announcement and 10c sale SOON...and i manage to SCORE TIX!!! :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

  • They could be reading what people say here and then posting it. After all, people have called Comcast and reported their results here. We could be the source.

    Unreal...

    I am heading to Maine tommorrow and will be spending my entire vacation wondering if Philly 3 tix will go on sale while I am away from my PC. Is it possble to order tickets via blackberry? Even if possible, no way I'd be as quick as I would be had I been at my office on a fast network.

    a song break for all of us anxiously awaiting news any NEWS......
    i find this song apropos of the waiting, wondering, speculating
    Help Help

    Tell me what I wanna hear
    This shits too good to be true
    My dear

    Tell me lies
    Tell me lies, tell me
    Tell me lies, tell me

    Help me

    Storybook keeps from hurting me
    You see
    Shell of the man from the sea

    Tell me lies
    Tell me lies, tell me
    Tell me lies, tell me

    Tell me why
    Tell me why, tell me
    Tell me why, tell me

    Tell me lies,...

    Help me

    Reservoir
    Of hate and fear
    Invisible
    In repair
    A hundred thieves
    Cast a spell
    This is hell

    Help me

    The man they call my enemy, I've seen his eyes
    He looks just like me, a mirror

    The more you read, we've been deceived
    Everyday it becomes clearer,...

    Clearer.

    Not my enemy,.. no, not my enemy,..
    Don't speak for me. No, not my enemy.

    Indeed, but I am feeling optimistic. Our tech guy is in the office upgrading our internet connection right now, so maybe I won't get completely shut out when the sale happens. Of course there are other factors at play as well...

    Now that the Springsteen shows have been sold out (mostly), I'd bet we get an announcement about the other Pearl Jam show(s) Wednesday, with a public sale Friday.

    So are you thinking no 10C sale for this one?

    I still think it will be next week. Because the NBA schedule has not come out yet and I think they're going to not just announce the Philly shows, but fill in the gaps between Seattle and LA and SD and Philly, as well as announce Australia and NZ dates. I read on one of the Australian music sites that tour info was coming in August.

    So we just have to wait a little longer.

    You might be right about Australia/NZ/West, but I don't think the NBA schedule is a factor -- It's not uncommon for there to be two or even three big events at the Philly sports complex at once.

    Not for Philly, but for the other shows to fill in the gaps. You can't play outdoor shows in many venues in mid to late October.

    I'm sure promoters can get their hands on sporting event schedules before they are released to the public.

    one other thing I thought of is maybe they are trying to do the paperless ticketing that Bruce did today for the additional shows. I can see PJ getting behind something like that, especially with a show that will be in such high demand.

    I'm not sure it's necessary, since most/all of the great seats will be 10-C, which distributes them in a similar manner.

    my friends that are not exactly "in the know", so to speak, keep saying "my friday tix say venue finale" on them... i keep telling them it will not be the last show

    it seems like false advertising at this point... i know a few people that are pumped to be going to the "final" show at the spectrum.. and they are going to be heartbroken when they have to drop $200 more for the real last show

    it is printed on the 10/30 ticket though that it is the last show :lol:

    If that's true, that was really dumb and unnecessary on The Spectrum's part. That show would have sold out no matter how they billed it.

    I agree, outside of events booked months ago, if PJ is playing arenas through Sept/Oct- they may have to wait for the NBA schedule. But most areans probaly have it by now, if the public anouncment is next week. Most places proably have to block any reservations until the NHL/NBA schedules are done to know what dates are going to be available. This won't effect the spectrum, but other palces in the country it may.
