    Can't remember if I posted here or not...

    I'm in, reserved. 349,xxx...

    If anyone from Seattle is heading to this show, could I possibly snag a ride? Probably will have an extra ticket for this show and Spokane (GA)...

    Did anyone that put in for reserved get shut out?

    My friend got Reserved with priority pick #9, so, I'm guessing no.

    This whole show is gonna be a blast... If my research is correct... Portland hasn't had a show since 2000??? I'm excluding the "Portland" show that was in Ridgefield, WA in 09 and the Theater they played in 06.

    This crowd gonna be ROWDY

    I wonder if they even sold them all.

    OK, back to this idea of Thanksgiving dinner... boxorbag and his wife, and LD_and happy (+1?) expressed interest. My husband and I would like to go too. Anyone else? Maybe we give it a couple of more days and then make a reservation? If more people want to join later we can see if the restaurant can accommodate.

    Why would you exclude both of those shows? The Clark County Amphitheatre is pretty much in Portland and most of the people there were probably from the Portland metro area anyway. And the show in 2006 at the Schnitz totally counts. Plus it was an amazing show, even if I did miss it and have only heard it on bootleg.

    That said, I already have my tickets reserved for the 11/29 show!!!

    Thanksgiving is the day before the show. Festivities generally include overeating, napping in front the t.v. with the (American) football game on, and heavy drinking in order to make certain family members more tolerable. :lol:

    There could be some bands playing Thanksgiving night as people get antsy from being cooped up all day and they don't have to work the next day, but a lot things will be closed.

    Yes, Oh Yes. I live in Portland area and was shut out of lottery! I joined club in 2011 so I'm sure I have a high number. Anyway, I am very bummed. I have never seen Pearl Jam live. If anyone out there has a spare GA, just 1 ticket for GA, I will pay graciously! You will have a friend for life and beyond! Please be that person that keeps me from crying all night for the next 4 months! Thank you all for your time and consideration!

    Thank you,

    Dawn

    yes, with a bunch of other high carb dishes...stuffing/dressing (basically chopped up stale bread mixed with butter and seasonings), mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, etc.

    WARNING: DO NOT attempt to go to ANY department store/do any shopping, on Friday the 29th...the stores will all be crazy and you will not be able to get out in less than an hour. People will be lining up at 4am to do holiday shopping.
    Best bet, find a Fred Meyer (it's like WalMart-but clean and organized, and they sufficiently stock cashiers), get what you need, and check out in the grocery area.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Hey locals....

    How's the White Eagle? A friend keeps trying to turn me on to Mcminnemans hotels. I'm staying for a few days and thought I could get some opinions...so what's the skinny with these folks?

    Thanks in advance.
