    I heard they are playing 4 nights at the spectrum in october..... anyone going? Why can't people just be happy with the present.


    They also played MSG twice in 2008. People should be happy with the past as well.

    ...but seriously, this isn't a thread about how PJ might play Philly in August 2010. NY is two states away, and MSG is also a venue that fans are more willing to travel to. Apples and Chiwawas.

    I thought MSG was a TM venue? A TM stronghold for that matter. Perhaps LN is promoting?
    Anyway I am in favor of this!

    but damn, four nights would cost a small fortune

    Live Nation is first and foremost a promoter. They will put shows in a TM venue as they have for years.

    The price of having multiple events in a venue become smaller after the first night because they don't have to pay the stagehands and loaders for a 2nd, 3rd and 4th load-in. Same with expenses for load-out. They're paying IATSE, IBEW, etc during the show but to play just one night would incur more per-day expenses than multiple nights.

    Does New York only have MSG? Are there any other's places Pearl Jam can play at? :|


    Izod (formerly Continental Airlines) Arena is so close you can see the NYC skyline from.

    Nassau Coliseum is about 30 miles east of NYC.

    Jones Beach Amphitheater (summer only) is also about 30 miles east of NYC.

    ...I think that's it as far as large venues that PJ is likely to play.

    dont forget PNC in jersey.

    i really hope they get to jones beach again one of these days. awesome venue in the summer time.

    cross izod and nassau off that list though.



    YAY!
    :mrgreen:

    i thought i was all alone in this thinking, most people just bash!
    i think my first or second post of this thread, i expressed this exact sentiment!

    I hope you guys aren't fucking with us. I'll enjoy 2 Philly shows either way but I always miss the MSG shows even though I live in NY so the sooner the better.

    PM sent. If I get PM'd more info that's more than a loose rumor, I'll see what I can find out from my contact. I just can't imagine a booking almost a year in advance, when PJ has booked other shows there and canceled them several time just months before them. It just defies how things like this work, especially how PJ has booked there in the past.

    Coming from the guy who bet his 10c member number that the Phily shows would never happen... :roll:
  • What I would love more than MSG is 2 or 4 nights at SPAC they haven't played there since 2000 and it's so fuckin' close to me it's silly.

    You? I could jog and be there in five minutes!
