    Kelly---Do you think the band hiring 'friends' early in their career has caught up with them from a competent business standpoint?

    c'mon Kelly... why was there no 2nd night announcement? You're blatantly not answering this question... are you contractually and legally obliged NOT allowed to announce this on PJ as part of the tour negotations?

    why no 2nd night announcement my friend? you know why... please enlighten us.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Hi Kelly

    3. Does Pearl Jam ever return after 2012 to the nordic countries? Do we have to wait another 12 years to a chance to get tickets for a Pearl Jam gig in the home country?

    12 years is nothing, try 19 ;)

    Kelly : Was a show in Finland on the planning board, I know Livenation Finland made an offer and there's a big festival on the same weekend as the Stockholm show?

  • The title of this thread is a DIALOGUE WITH KELLY
    WTF!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is not a dialogue.. you are not addressing our concerns..

    I wll not longer pay the PJ TAX.. You will no longer get my membership

    Wheres our HOLIDAY SINGLE FOMR LAST YEAR let alone this year
    and then insult us with this crap..


    are you really living up to your own claim:
    Our promise to do our darndest to get you the BEST tickets in the house to Pearl Jam shows around the world and early entry to general admission performances


    Pearl Jam? What the hell happened to you in the last two years i- its all commercial now.. from rip off re-releases.. to crappy show line ups and now this crap!!!

    I guess PJ have succumbed to getting their retirement fundi n place like all other commercial rock bands..

    (...Oh how it pains me to even say that...!!!)

    Hi Kelly. Here's a question and a comment for you. Why all the interest in answering these types of questions with us now? We've had the nighmare for years and recently the PJ20 and Ed solo shows were both a disaster. Nothing was addressed then. What makes this Euro tour ticketing issue more significant than these other two?
    You obviously did not participate in this presale or you would know the difference. I bought PJ20 tickets but it was nowhere as bad as what happened this week.
    Hey buddy. I'm on your side. So take it down a notch ok?

    Kelly---can you just do traveling fans a solid and let us know if an American tour is being discussed.......I think at this juncture that would be fair.

    Please don't mind this guy, Kelly. When he's not asking inane, self-serving questions, he's busy running a flea market in the Lost Dogs section of this forum.

    what are you doing right now to fix this or to get the people behind the "sabotage", we can give you ideas but I think you should hire an expert and get this thing rolling as it should be, I don't think can be that hard in the year 2011!!!
    thanks!

    is it just a case of too much traffic overwhelming the server? whether it be crowdsurge or 10c?

    or is it not even known if that is the problem?
    servers were fine.... humming along


    Sorry, but I'm not quite sure what this means and how the jump was made to sabotage. Are you now saying that it wasn't sabotage, and you don't know what the problem was? If so, why does the 10C statement point to sabotage. The forums are currently going really slow, probably because many people are interested in this thread and there are many fans logged on. Prior to that "servers were fine.....humming along." How do you differentiate between a traffic issue and sabotage? Is the only evidence you have so far is that the servers were fine before the presale and that both 10C and crowdsurge have had problems?

    I also love the band..and all the people who work there are great...But...

    There are 234 people on the board now and it is amazingly slow .....
    This seems very strange....
    I hope this is a test to find the bad guy because if it isnt the sever is having issues...

    Cheers and thanks for the work

    IS THE TICKETING ISSUE FIXED FROM HERE ON OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    for the past few years buying tickets through 10c has honestly drove me up a wall ..... and im close to taking my TICKET PURCHASES else where.



    THANKS KELLY
    don't blame you.. we all feel the same way. of course we are working on the perfect system.. any ideas? send them along

    why would we come up with the ideas? YOU'RE THEIR MANAGER! I'm a school teacher and wouldn't ask you how to teach a good WWI lesson on trench warfare.
    come on… really?

    Another quick point.
    Why must fan club tickets be sold in pairs, surely it would be best to have the option of one or two, thereby releasing more tickets to more people. Many people only want one then have the hassle of trading it.

    Thanks again .

  • Just to lighten the mood!
    Any plans on movie deals?


    :)

    But really. Take in the critisism. COMMUNICATE even when you don't have much/anything to say. Don't stay dead silent while we don't know what to do.

    And seriosuly, look over the tenclub. This year has been a plague in many ways. The ticket-thing has been a distatser for us since 2005. That is 7 years you could have made it work - but didn't.

    but thanks for booking Sweden this time around!

    Mr Curtis, I just wanted to point out how the site is currently crawwwwwling and there are no tickets on sale and/or nothing to "sabotage". Are the servers still humming?
