    The rumor of other shows following this one will also have people skipping on spending a lot more money on this weekend.

    agree. but, I think other shows aren't a rumor. I just heard a broadcast with Mike saying there is a tour end of year.

    works for me. but i'm still going to PJ20

    Exactly. They are still rumors though. However, my point is, these rumored shows(if there are quite a few) will deter people from traveling to WI on a busy expensive weekend thus no huge open field will be needed. There will be plenty of tickets.

    I am not suprised that it is Alpine Valley. It seems like everytime they come through Chicago, Ed mentions wanting to play Alpine Valley. It seems to be a venue they like playing. Most people in the Chicagoland area would prefer to go there for an outdoor concert. It is always a fun time. Is it the easiest, best place in the world? No, but . . .

    No venue would ever satisfy everyone.

    [ They are still rumors though.

    really? A member of the band says they are doing shows and it's a rumor? :lol:

    By the way that member of the band also said there would be a PJ E.P. a couple of months after backspacer. Let me know when that comes out.

    Did he say how many? 2 shows aren't going to affect the PJ20 crowd. 20+ would.

    so if a friend of your told you they were getting married you would say that was a rumor becuase sometimes weddings are canceled? Is there any light up there?

    You need to learn what "rumor" means and what "departure" means and then come back and play.

    Since the majority of the people will be coming from out of state/country, what are the chances that the 10C will offer hotel packages to 10C members?
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    I booked immediately, the day the first rumor hit.

    I would say chances are pretty darn good.
    Hoping I can jump in on that when all is out in the open and announced.
    Booked in Waterford just as a safety net.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Thanks! Yeah..I might book a "safety net" too..things are already booking up fast. As long as I book a place with no cancellation penalty, then I don't see the harm..

    Yeah, I really can't imagine that they won't offer some hotel packages..so many people coming out of town and staying more than one night :)

    It being PJ20 and all, huge & spectacular, something hyped up & talked about for months & months. There just gotta be 10club hotel packages. There just gotta be. :angel:

    For outsiders... rent a car... unless you plan on getting drunk and high all day in the parking lot.

    what are we supposed to do if this is our plan?

    Not having public transportation is going to suck
  • Sprunkn7Sprunkn7 Posts: 5,286
    Yeah, driving will be a drag. I'm not a shuttle person either....so looks like someone will have to be the designated driver each night.
    Is the Alpine resort on site, like no driving? I hear it's booked, but maybe an option in a hotel pgk, just like the camping they have now? Ahh, the speculation is killing me.

    I haven't been to Alpine since the last Pearl Jam show there. Oh gosh, that was back in 2003. I think the space near Alpine to camp/stay is very limited. People book weekends out up there throughout the summer without a concert.

    The parking lot is essentially a big field and allows tailgating. That is probably the main reason it is a favorite spot around here for concerts like Phish, DMB, Jimmy Buffet, ect.
