If it happens... I hope that it is a week before (August 27)... announced that day and tickets go on sale that day... one ticket per person... once you pay, you get shoved in the door... no ins and outs means no scalping. Foo Fighter style. Only the ones who do what it takes to get there... get in.
This way... the locals get a shot... not all of us foriegners that will be swarming in from every direction. If you happen to live in Milwaukee... you should get the shot, not a guy like me, flying in from Los Angeles or other Ports o Call.
If only 37 people show up and get in... GREAT. It's a rehearsal gig, not a Pearl Jam money maker. I hope they play for 3 hours and take requests from the peanut gallery. They will have a story that will live with them forever.

i already have my ticket.
they sent an email asking the locals if we were interested and if you were, you got a free ticket....
can't wait.
i'd tell you were and when, but i'm not going to be the one to create a cluster outside the theater.
The Vic seats 1000-1400, so we are probably looking at 500-700 lucky people with a confirmation email should this happen....Good luck...did they do a lottery last time or was it the classic F5 till you drop?

So IF the show is 9/1... presale is probably going to be around the 25th w/ the announcement maybe the 22nd/23rd?
I bet tons of venues are open so there's no easy way to guess where they might play.
But the Foo Fighters did do it right over the weekend - you check in and are ushered in immediately. While people WERE selling their second ticket, at least this helped a tiny bit to avoid even more scalping... no way to perfectly cut it out when you can buy pairs.
I want some white castle now... :twisted:

From what I understand, the 2007 warm up show was not supposed to be at the Vic. Initially it was supposed to be held at the Chicago Theatre and it was moved at the last minute because of some constriction at the Chicago Theatre. I would hope that a warm up show this year (if it does happen) would be at a venue larger than the Vic ...
I would love to have an excuse to make another PJ trip to Chicago

Chicago Theater would be great... could still sellout through the 10C, but can fit a lot more people which is good for everyone!
The chances of geting tickets are slim to none LOL. Better chance of winning powerball or becoming president
but if you did....
That's the ultimate gamble, right? If you get in its pure bliss, but if you don't its pure agony..
I got lucky on the Vic - 4 hours of refreshing and I got one of the pairs that opened up long after most people gave up... but those 4 hours felt like the worst four hours... just pure insanity.
But I'd take a show and a chance over no show and no chance - even if I may regret thinking that later!!

If this were to happen, it would be great. But wouldnt the ticket sale be just like the PJ20 disaster again??? I doubt they would have a new ticketing system in place by the time tickets would need to go on sale. If they actually do a warmup show, I hope they would just have a lottery for who gets tickets to avoid hours of frustration again.

i'm not. if chicago, i would expect some place different

Time for a Honking Seals reunion!
for the least they could possibly do
then you are talking just a regular small show.
i think a place that holds less than 2k would be cool...assuming i could get in.
but if you did....

my apologies.
if there is a show, and i don't get tickets, i'll be happy to trade you 10 c notes for yours.
some people get a litle too worked up about this kind of stuff, to the point that i feel embarressed for them.
