***Offical Please Play Seattle Thread****

Happy Birthday America and thanks to our troops. Here here, Well said.

Other than that one statement I think your point is half right. We here in the Pacific North West do have a lot of great bands. Although many acts dont head this far up. This also can be said for other parts of the country too! So for me I try and see some small bands that people have probably never heard of at smaller venues. Some are good many are just o.k. Pearl Jam has had some shows in the Seattle Area in the fast hand full of years although they are either secrete shows, which means by the time you find out about them there sold out. Which is most fustrating because I ckeck this board every day and have some friends in the music industry. My eyes and ears are open like a tiger. The other shows sell like crazy. Grandmothers and kids alike seem to jump over fences when Pearl Jam comes arounds. I always find my self saying "where the hell have you guys been hiding." It just makes it harder to get tickets. THe Gorge which they played in 05 and 06 is about 3 hours away. Your basically travelling and having to spend hotel or camping money for a show. I think we here are just suprized that we haven't seen Pearl Jam play a tour show here in the Seattle Area in a long while. (Two shows just to make sure everyone can see ya.) At this point if I lived in California I would have been able to see them a lot more. Just a thought and point of fustration. Fustration will pass and make me party that much harder when I see them again. My old friends.

But then again aren't we all fustrated that this round of shows is over. I feel like someone pressed fast foward on my life and I missed something.

DVR is ready though for Rock Honors.

Man I wish I was wealthy I would be all over the f...ing place rocking out. 1 show for Ed, heck no. All of them. Pearl Jam....all of them. Green River...yep.

Oh..............yeh.....Green River....................

I can't wait.

Good luck with this....from the Dirty South. :cool:

I am in for this, but I can't see a "showbox tour" going off since they could sell out 2 or maybe even 3 straight nights in the Key.

I would like to see the showbox stuff go down, but another back-to-back charity-fest in the Key this Dec. would be great.

Just my 2 cents.

damn, a showbox show would be sweet in 08

Midwest Please! It's not like they live here.
