1 day away and 10C still hasnt made any announcement of the beacon show

Possibly because it has nothing to do with the show?

No big deal. Tickets are gone, and they've got bigger things to deal with probably - such as bootleg distribution.

They'll probably post the setlist afterwards.

Personally, I dont think the setlist will be anything super impressive, this will be the show they play all there hits... I dont know much about this show but it seems like a rich people concert...not a fan concert. I mean, I don't doubt fans will be there but I think it is going to mostly be people that can afford the high prices and have nothing better to do on a tuesday night. I could be wrong.

Is that why you think the 10C hasn't announced the show?
Because the set list is going to be lame? In that case they shouldn't
have announced Mansfield 1.

(kidding......)

lol, good point but you see, I think the show is going to be worse then Mansfield I--even though I dont think Mansfield was that bad, just alot of repeats--I am saying it is going to be a Pearl Jam's "greats mainstream hits show".

And no that is not why I think it wasn't advertised, I think the cost of the tickets and because it it a private invite only show.

what gives?

why would they at this point? 10c had absolutely NOTHING to do with the ticket selling process, it is ALL a robin hood foundation event that pearl jam is participating in. i do agree perhaps they could've announced pearl ajm was planning on participating, given a link to the robin hood org website, etc.....but should've been done weeks ago BEFORE tix went on sale, not now. however, they didn't. i am sure they left it all up to RHF, and perhaps that's what the organization wanted. seriously, while pj may be playing the gig, it is not 'their show'....it's all about 'robin hood rocks.'


for those thinking it will be an all hits show....could well be! and ya know what? couldn't give a shite! pearl jam are playing at the beacon...i am there......i am HAPPY! however, i am also an optimist and i believe they'll throw out at least 1-2 gems for those in attendance. bottomline live pearl jam = BLISS.....and in a 3k seat venue in NYC in support of an AWESOME organization? what's not to love?! fantastic!

seething with jealousy that I am not able to go to the Beacon show. Some guy had two orchestra tickets on EBAY last week that ended up selling for about $1300 for the two of them. Not that I need to spend $1300, but the airfare and hotel would have been cause for a divorce in my house.

Seething, I say.

Take care,

one hand....divorce
the other hand....PJ at Beacon

I call it a toss up

How is that any different from something like the Bridge School shows (or even Vote for Change)? Weren't those also benefit shows organized by someone else? And yet I am pretty sure both were advertised here. I do agree with you though that by this point there is no real reason to do anything.

already addressed that point, and of course, simply hypothesis. at this point tho, seems silly to ask the day before the gig, why wasn't it announced, that's all.


also, bridge show and VFC, BIG shows....RH gig, VERY small. so while all benefit shows, not the same either. in my mind, RHF called all the shots here, and pearl jam/10c respectfully followed their desires. it's all good.




and get_right, says the man who's in the pricey seats gratis. btw - i am in the lower balcony, so i hope those rare gems are for me too.


oh, and for VFC - while no 10c tickets, we DID get a presale TM password.
