    Maybe if PJ would play in the US more than 3 or 4 times (and not festivals) then maybe there wouldn't be such a fiasco when they announce 2 shows. They should tour how Phish and DMB does, then everyone would have a chance to see them every summer.
    It really doesn't seem like that's what the band members want to do with their lives though. :think:

    guess they probably should have chosen a different career path then, huh?

    Too bad they didn't start making music in the digital age where bands no longer make money on albums and have to tour to generate cash... :fp:
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    I think their careers seem to have gone pretty well, don't you? :lol:
    I mean, really? You think they should have chosen different careers because after 22 years of being in the same band they aren't stoked about touring all the time? I don't think you actually think that. Besides, they've all been touring and working hard. Just not necessarily with PJ.

  • I bags a ticket to the live in Dimitris's Basement gig.....I think this is a great idea!

    I would even pay 162.50 to be there!

    I agree....why not give everyone tickets to every show.....b'ut in a cruel twist of fate you dont find out if your ticket is legitimate until you get to the gig! Then if you dont get a legit ticket you get diverted to somewhere else to watch on tv....hahahah!

    The ongoing traumatic discussion on ticket availability is just too much....seriously people....we love the band but for those who are obsessed with why they cant be guaranteed a ticket....go outside....take a deep breathe......theres more to life than seeing a band.....and if theres not......then get something else to think about!

    I like the humor in this thread! Its about time this debate got lighter!

  • but what happened? during riot act tour for usa you could get 1 pair to as many shows as you wanted, why is it lotto now just because there was 2 shows? if pearl jam had announced 40 usa shows would 10c be the same and give ticket for as many shows as you want? i remember 2000 tour binaural though you only allowed 1 pair for a whole tour though. but both of those is better than a fuckin lotto. im 0 for all on lotto so far, and have a feeling i lose both chicago draws on thursday again , i hope i win but i usualy dont win anything in lottos,

    if we gonna have a lotto, can we have some poker tournaments too for tickets, maybe i can actualy win a poker tourney , but a lotto i have no chance yet:fp:

    they should just play one private party at every 10c members house for 162.50.

    With my luck, I won't win the lottery for that show.

    (I do enjoy the lottery)
