To me wisconsin is in the northern part of the country, not the middle.

That's what I was thinking too. I guess we just have to wait until it's officially confirm
Edit:
Actually it looks like Minnesota is the northern part of the country. but now that I look at the map of the US, it does look like Wisconsin is some what in the middle of the county. Oh well, guess I'll be waiting for the official news.
Ok fair enough, there is still speculating to do but if Neily's info is correct then you do know more than before. You know it's not at Grant Park or The Gorge so you can at least make arrangements with friends in the area assuming you have any left after the amount of shooting board members comments down in flames on practically every thread on the forums! Honestly your comments spoil my enjoyment of reading threads on here sometimes as the topic in question usually gets abandoned and taken over with back handed responses to your know it all negative comments. You should learn to communicate with some manners here and stop sitting by the sumbit button waiting for threads to jump on. No offence....
Thanks for the information. I'll take anything I can get.

Less than 20 miles from home- that works for me! Assuming, of course, I can get tix. If they are promoting this as a destination show and it's the only one(s), it could be tough to even get lawn.
ok so i know we can all have our opinions and disagreements on here. god knows there have been plenty of arguments.
i myself as of late have been mentioning that all of this festival talk is for nothing since the band even stated its no so much a festival and blah blah blah, yada yada yada.
but to sit here all day and keep bickering is useless for everyone. people on here that have been right time after time, just trying to pass on some form of concrete knowledge is always nice to have. can i plan my date yet? no. but now i can know how far im driving and how much i might be paying for a room.
tearing people down time after time, is not what this board was meant for.
i hope to see you all in wisconsin...unless i get a stomach ache from eating too much cheese.
peace, love and pearl jam!
-robby
p.s. - please dont let me eat too much cheese...i REALLY want to see pearl jam
So, only a 24 hour, 1,700 mile drive from my house. Perfect...
and a 30 hour 1900 mile drive for me
or
$800 for 2 round trip tickets
sorry eyed, unlost, BD, thrilla, 81, RYE...not going...I can't afford it....$1200 just to get there and tickets, unless somebody really does want to chip in for a RV to rent and drive.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

There's nothing better than paying a few grand to fly in from overseas to see Wisconsin. Or if you are lucky enough you can pay an extra $500-600 to stay in Chicago for 2 nights.
They had better put something special together for me to head to frigging Wisconsin. That venue can be a logistical nightmare.
If it is in September, we wont hear anything until May or June.
And they better come to the Northeast to collect their paychecks.
Is Milwaukee the most convenient big city to fly in/out?
Milwaukee is close to Alpine...otherwise another hub would be Chicago and then you'd have at least a good hour if not longer drive up into the Milwaukee area...If I were you...I'd just go straight into Milwaukee. But that is my opinion.

Thanks....I'd rather stay relatively close to the venue in a city that isn't as hectic as Chicago, so Milwaukee makes sense!
I am hoping there is a Brewers game the Thurs/Friday before the shows (not that they are "officially" happening yet!)
international airport near by???

Yup $500/$600 in the offseason. :roll:
When PJ played there in 2009 my 3 nights was just about $225 total at a four star hotel right in downtown. No need to try and inflate every price for no need.
...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...

Most people don't plan on going alone.
If you booked the Chicago Hyatt right now for August 26-28(2 night stay) it would cost you $358-$958 for 2 people depending on what room you wanted. So how exactly was I off on price. that's just the first giant hotel I checked.

You stay at the motels/hotels in East Troy. Most of which are about 10 miles from the venue.
