    I don't think it's stupid at all... I think it sounds great, if I was closer I would do it, its just that for me it's the money and 13 hour drive each way and I can't even stay all 4 days.

    I dont know why people though are so ticked off by the fact that some of us would rather sit this one out and wait for more annoucement if there is any.
    I know I wont be crushed if they dont announce anything at all and didnt go to Bonnaroo.

    I think its great for the ones that are going... I'm being called from the show and sending money with a friend to pick me up some merch so I'm good...

    (they are naggin' though and making it really hard for me to stay strong with my decision :D)

    Again, my post was pointed at those complaining about shows not being announced. I agree with everything you are saying.

    again im an adult.....i can make my own fucking decisions.....

    *waits for coffee*

    good morning everyone..........

    I agree with you. Just don't hassle the Ten Club because you want to see every show you can. I go to 10 shows a tour, so not saying you shouldn't go.

    Hahahaha I love when someone makes a rant thread, and then just get shat on in all of the responses, and doesn't post again in their own thread.

    I have a job that unfortunately forces me to work Saturdays through April 15th.

    HAHAHAHAHA... I love when someone makes an idiot comment assuming that people spend their life on the PJ board like they do.

    P.S. Have I posted enough times for you?

    I have to say this TS does not seem to have a clue. WTF are they on about?
    Also, I find the 'I won't go see a festival set' a pretty elitist view point. "Oh no, it's 10C shows or nothing for me, I far too pure to see a 'festival set' ". Get over yourselves.
    p.s. I'm really hoping for more shows to be announced, I think I'll badger the 10C for announcements :D


    *goes to badger 10C*

    Are you all idiots. I don't like festivals, but that doesn't mean I think they are stupid. I am not an elitist. I just don't want to go to a festival. I am not a huge concert person, but love going to Pearl Jam shows. So I am not going to pay a lot of money and spend a lot of time when the only part I will enjoy is the Pearl Jam set. That is why I am not going. My point is that people who would rather not got a festival than a regular show are badgering the Ten Club for dates. If you don't really want to go to a festival show, then why not just not go? That is all I am saying.

    I can't figure out why you are all so appalled.

    Your post makes no sense at all. I want to see pearl jam this year. I don't think it's my right (retarded thread title) but it's definitely something I want to do. now, I live 14 hours away from Bonnaroo, and about 2 hours away from NYC and Philly. so as you can see, it makes perfect sense to wait and see if they'll do a real tour before you make a choice unless you live in reasonable distance from Bonnaroo and/or really want to go there.

    So since you agree with what that guy said, and I agree with what that guy said, then in essence you just called my post perfect too. Thanks!

    bonnaroo = a GA PJ show, why the well would anyone want to miss this? You can go as wild as you want to and not have guards and people look at you like your crazy, I'm tired of people saying this doesn't count as a PJ show, fuck they are gonna do a 3 hour set! I have a shitty tenclub number so as soon as gates open Saturday I'm running as fast as I can to the front of the stage and waiting all day for PJ, front row hopefully! I would never even get within the first 10 rows at a 10c show, the same lame fucks get front row everytime at 10c shows, tapping their feet the entire show, but not this time!

    WOW.
    if you dont want to get flamed, the post what you 'really' mean.
    your first post sounded like you're ragging on people who dont want to go for bonnaroo right away, who want to see what else is coming. or that people shouldnt think twice about just skipping a year of pearl jam.

    then you said you're just saying its the people who blame 10c for not announcing things.

    thats quite the wide variety of people you're pointing at.

    wow, im confused, i cant tell who thinks who is right or wrong. if i choose not to go to Roo, and PJ dont play any other shows i can get to, thats my bad. im cool with that. i'll take my chances. i dont see how its an "elitist" point of view to say that "i dont really enjoy festival shows" it has nothing to do with it not being a 10c show , at all.

    whatever, all who are going , good on ya. have fun. i am sure if festival shows are your thing, that you will have a great time.
    Peace, Love.

    ive gotten through most of this thread now and i gotta say i feel sorry for the response you got man... i think maybe your original post wasnt quite worded as well as the above quote... its true tho... for me it wasnt that i dont like festivals, because i do... it was more about the money... i made a decision to not go... id love to hear about more dates but if no more come up this year within a reasonable distance and i am forced to skip a year or more then ill survive... i mean i went 3 years between my first show and my second... the last 2 years spoiled me but ill survive with the other good music out there!

    The only things that stop me from seeing PJ every year are ticketing limitations, the days off work, and the money to travel.

    A 'right' to see them doesn't come into it. Besides, like my good friend said, it's hardly just about them. It's seeing much-missed friends too.

    Yeah, my original post had two references to the complainers, but I can see now how it was not clear. The "wait and see" part wasn't for those who are just waiting for future announcements, but to those who are complaining.

    I too feel like sgossard, your original post was unclear, because it didnt really read the way you meant it based on your later reponses.... you sure took a beating from most of us.... (it's your fault anyways for not coming back sooner :p)

    hey weve all been there before... i mean, starting a thread that gets a huuuge negative response... i was in that boat just last week... you gotta be careful when ya vent around here cause your words dont always come out how you intend...

    we should probably make an amendment for "the right to see PJ" just to be safe tho :p
