    Going on comments that Mike said Elton John would be performing you could probably almost bank on it being Elton John and Leon Russell, considering Neil guests on their new album due out on the 19th Oct!

Pearl Jam will probably be the "headliner" one of the 2 nights, but probably not both nights. One year The Who played near the end on Saturday night, and near the beginning on Sunday afternoon... Neil likes to mix it up that way. Or sometimes an artist has a show that night somewhere else so needs to play/leave early. When Pete Townshend showed up unannounced one year, he played in the afternoon then had a WHO show in San Jose later that night (which I snuck into after the Bridge concert! Ha! Saw most of the Quadrophenia set...)

    Do they announce the schedule in advance? I would like to get a red-eye back the east coast and go to work on Monday. But I also want to see both PJ sets. If PJ is closing out the show on Sunday, that probably won't work for me. Does the biggest name usually close the show on Sunday?

  • anyone know when tickets will go on sale? I found a ticket site that has tickets, but it doesn't seem legit since the Bridge School website says nothing about tickets being on sale.

    What if you could sit just a few rows from the stage? :)
    I could have permission to sit on the stage, and sing Twinkle twinkle little star with Neil and Peg....

    I would rather sit on the lawn.....

    Bridge school isnt about where you sit....At least to me it isnt....

    But dont get me wrong...You Pearl Jam elitists will find a way to drive me fucking nuts with your seat locations....

    They will get tickets, just like any show, brokers get their "unfair" share.

    The schedule is never announced. Not even at the show itself. Crew of course knows the order, which they are given day of show. That info generally makes it's way through the crowd from those in the know. But as a rule, there is no "announcement" of the running order of the acts, and those in the know don't get the info until day of show. Neil almost always plays the final set on Sunday, so even if PJ was before Neil, their set would probably be over by 8:15 or so. SFO is about a 30 or 40 min drive from Shoreline. That is a likely scenario, but it would suck to book a flight and then miss the PJ set.... good luck!

    ...
    Pearl Jam's position in the batting order is up in the air...
    Will they play before or after Elton John?
    Elton John has seniority as far as year making music... but, Pearl Jam's Anniversary date is that weekend.
    So, having Pearl Jam bat ahead of Elton John would work out for those that have Sunday Evening travels plans.
    I guess Ol' Neil will decide.

  • I apologize if this was already touched on but I'm too lazy to go through the 15 pages of this post to verify.

    Anyway, I have some questions for the past Bridge School Benefit attendies.

    How much have tickets gone for in the past?

    When do they go on sale? (I guess that's a stupid question as the Ten Club has yet to release the offical word).

    Thanks to whom ever responds. 8-)
