  • You in the band? So why do you care?
    If they dont sell what they need to make money here in this attempt they won't play here again .. what I dont get is why does it bother you NE people so much?
    You getting your show in Philly and NYC people are getting their shows in MSG.. unless you are the band's accountant I dont know what your problem with the south selling or not tickets is....

    It's more shows they could be playing in Philly AND NYC that I'll be going to. That's just it. "MY" show in Philly isn't just my show and the NYC show isn't just "their" show. I'm going to both. Lots of NY folk are coming down here as well. Boston folks. That's quite a ride. You figure with how long that stupid Play the South petition was, those folks would be in man up mode when it comes time for the actual shows.

    You have any idea how long it is to drive outta Florida?
    just to get out of FL to the closest state of GA is like a 13 hour drive... just to get out of FL you cant possibly try to compare the commute of you people up there to people in Florida..

    I always go to shows in NYC, this is the first year that I will miss them at the MSG and Camden, other than that every tour I've been up there, thought this time I'll be going into 6 months pregnant at that time which makes it difficult.
    But you cant generalize an entire region based on assumptions when you guys don't even live down here.... I would drive to SC if it wasnt like 15 hour drive.

    So you are really bothered because the southerners are getting shows and taking up dates they could be playing up in the North? Give me a break!

    Jesus, giving across SC takes so fucking long you forget where you're heading. That state is fucking fat left and right and up and down.

    it's sad but true because this is all it is... that guy spinmyworldtoblack just said it loud and clear that what bothers him and that FL, SC and VA are taking up dates they could be playing in the north so that he could go to 7 shows rather than just 3.... its sad that some PJ fans in the North can be so self centered and selfish...

    I don't know what the fuck they want us to do. i bought my tickets. Two pairs in fact. We are limited to one pair each show so it's not like we can snatch a lot of them up for our family and friends who will be going, but aren't in the fan club. And seriously, stop bitching about the petition. I don't know what board settings you guys have on but whenever I get on here, it doesn't automatically open for me. If I want to read something, I have to open myself. You guys might want to change those settings. I'd be getting pissy too if I HAD to read threads I didn't want to. And do you guys seriously think that PJ would play the NE region two or three weeks straight? No. And for one good reason, it's bad for business.
  • What uproar? The board uproar? I can guarantee you every single one that bitched on this board about no tour on the South bought a ticket yesterday.

    Many of you seem to forget the the board is a tiny fraction of Pearl Jam fans out there. I'm in the South and travel when they don't come here rather than bitch but I didn't see no uproar about no shows on TV or the papers.. only on this board and the board is not indicative of the PJ fanbase in the South.

    What I dont understand is why does it get under ya'lls skin that there are still tickets available, how does it affect you?


    No sarcasm here, but I didnt realize this.
    I never got an email
    and honestly I have been going so digital with my music with no radio at all.
    I have been staying in and chilling from the winter.
    I decided to go out for chineese, so I had the radio on for 10 mins, amd matt cord in philly mentioned the 19th
    I ran in and it had been so long since my last time here I had to relog in, the only reason I still had my password was from when i was banned in sept 06, I just kept saving the email, so there was not much wait cause as you remember there was a time where your username was screwed up sometimes it can take a day.
    And not to mention my number lapsed like a few days, it renews on the 9th, and this was like the 21st and they let me slide.
    And here I am going to 7 shows, I havent listened to the radio since last thurs, and possibly would not have posted.

    wow
    talk about fortune and misfortune

    and the big hole in my savings.
    Some people have religion I have Pearl Jam.

  • the funny thing is this barometer of standards is rediculous.

    I mean if camden and msg dont sell out in like 2010, these people are going to be calling for them to skip those states too.

    I know. This is new to me, I have never seen this before, this competitiveness, and this bitching about certain cities not selling as fast.. :confused:

    whats up rockstar!!!!!!!!!!!!

    there were plenty of people in that play the south thread....

    who were nothing but rude and ignorant towards plenty of people here...trust me...i know....they tried to get me banned for life...

    because they didnt have a fucking clue what a sense of humor is....

    there are plenty of people in that play the south thread who showed plenty of hatred and hostility towards us "Yankees"...

    nobody is innocent here....... plenty of the "play the south" people were practically begging to turn this into a competition.....

    but its over and done...

    the south got their shows.....
    the north got their shows.....

    and SPEEDY doesnt give a rats ass!!!!!! hehehehehehehehe
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    I don't think Pearl Jam decides where to tour based on whining and petitions.

    I give them more credit than that.
