This will be my first show at the United Center and wanted to know if we will get a 30+ song, 3 hr show?

Either way, I'm ready to rock out at both shows!

Thanks

    There's a curfew everywhere. Let's face it, the venue personnel want to go home at some point... I bet you get 30 songs tho.

    I think every show at the UC the band takes the stage about 8:50 and plays until like 11:15-11:30. I'm guessing the curfew is 11 since they always seem to go just a bit over.

    according to NashvillePJfan, Pearl Jam will start playing at about 8:30pm on 8/23, and will play straight through until 3 am in 8/25, shattering any and all expectations for these EPIC, FAN CLUB ONLY SHOWS!*

    *note, while it is completely false that these shows are even close to fan club only, in his mind, these will be the greatest shows ever and the world will end as soon as Mike hits the final notes of Ledbetter in the wee hours of Tuesday morning.

    i can't say if it is safe or not, but i've smelled it at the Q in cleveland as well as the EV solo shows last summer in chicago. that said, i was in the rafters at EV and in the upper deck in cleveland.

    now Bonnaroo is a completly different story....rumor was it, we were annexed by asterdamn

    ILLINOIS has a smoking ban indoors. So no weed or tobacco. The United Center lets you smnoke tobacco outside.
