    HI, I am not from the area, we're travelling from NJ.

    But, I checked out Googlemaps and found an Irish pub, good reviews and only a 6 min. walk to the Bell Centre..
    Here's the website: http://www.hurleysirishpub.com

    Perhaps this could be an option for the pre-party? ;)
    I'm from Montreal and yes, this is a great place! But, because there is live band everynight, it could be difficult if we want to listen some PJ all along! :lol:

    There is http://www.mckibbinsirishpub.com/index.php , which is very cool also!

    Live band every weeks, and everytime I go there, I hear at least one PJ song! ;)

    FitPearl, which would you recommend? I'm looking for something close. Still haven't heard back yet from Gumpy's so I might give up on them? It's less then a month away. Would like to get everything booked sooner then waiting the last few day's.

    I went a few times at the McKibbins, but just once at Hurley, I cant even remember how it is inside(big enough?!).

    McKibbins has 2 floors, but Hurley seems a bit bigger.

    Regardless that I think both are pretty similar!

    I say, give it a try for both, see if owners contact you, and compare the options?!

    for distance, both are 5-10 min by walk from Bell Center.

    Having no luck reserving an official place to host the preparty. :(

    Also add the Wishlist Foundation goodies that are shipped out from the USA to Montreal, Canada won't make it up here. Shipping costs are too expensive. We are trying to find a few friends who could help us out. If you are going to Alpine Valley then traveling up to Montreal by car then traveling down to the Toronto Pearl Jam show's would be somebody we would be looking for . If you are interested in helping us please give us a shout.

    Thanks! :)

    If we can't get a fundraiser organized with such limited time, and the merchandise and everything that goes with it, should we at least plan for a meet up at a local bar?

I already spoke with 2 managers, but I'm waiting on the official confirmation of the owner, whos calling me back on monday! Both we're pretty confident about the event!

    So, fingers crossed and I'll let you know on monday!

    It was my choice. I can't say yes to everything Pearl Jam tells me to do.
    Festival show's & it's atmosphere are not my thing.
