Okay, I don't want to crush anyone's dreams or anything, but I guess I should post this: I had sent a futile email to 10C about lotto options for those who didn't try for a Seattle 1 IF there would be a Seattle 2 with the same rules as Worcester, and they replied with:
"Sorry there are no plans for a second Seattle show.
-10c"
I wasn't even sure if I should post this, just in case they are simply trying to keep it under wraps, like, throw me off the scent, or are being technical about it, i.e. haven't completed plans for it or no plans YET but there will be or something. :? You'd think they just wouldn't have replied at all if that were the case maybe, but who knows. 10C also likes the cloak and dagger thing sometimes .... Anyway, I figured I should offer all info possible to those who are hoping for this.... Definitely not a good email to receive. Who thinks that's the bottom line, and there will be no second show in Seattle?
thanks for posting this, definitely better to know. hmmm...so maybe the fact that some people phoned ticketmaster & were told there was a second show just means that pj had reserved key arena "just in case", and maybe then decided not to proceed with seattle 2?? they could always announce it tomorrow, but if they don't announce this week i guess it was a pipe dream after all :(
oh well, would have been great but i think i am going to put this dream aside now and get back to normal life...counting down to portland - less than 4 months to go now!!!
Do you honestly expect 10c to come out in an email right now and tell you "Yes, there are plans for a second Seattle show and there will be one on 12/7 and we are going to announce this at a later date, but please don't tell anyone. Thanks, 10c"?
They can say whatever they want, but a second Seattle show is going to happen people! Or at least I hope so Keep the faith!

No, I didn't expect anything like that from them. I just didn't expect them to actually lie. I just thought they wouldn't answer at all, or would wait until after an announcement to answer.

Not much info here, but I emailed Key Arena about booking a suite for the 2nd show and they replied saying they have heard of no additional show, but said I can book a suite pending a 2nd show.
Strange how I could book a suite if there was no hope of a 2nd show. So I'd say there's definitely hope!
I would completely expect 10c to say there are no plans for a 2nd Seattle show if you emailed them prior to it being announced.
I would bet they would have said the same thing to any fan down under about the Australian tour if they emailed them prior to Wednesday. Or said the same thing asking about a 2nd Worcester show prior to it being announced Tuesday.
Not sure why anyone would expect anything different.
...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...
Maybe they're trying to bide time while all the imports make their plans concrete (in order to allow more locals to attend?).
I thought about that too :think: I mean, is there even still hotel rooms available in Seattle? PJ fans are rabid, I guess the good stuff is already booked out.
We have booked hotel and flights right after we got the tm tickets... But we would still be there on the 7th Make it happen, PJ!
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

Because I don't understand why they would answer at all. Why answer with an untruth rather than not answer? They simply don't reply to emails all the time... Anyway, doesn't matter. As I said, my initial reaction to the email was to not really believe it (although know there is a possibility there won't be a 2nd), and understand that the reply is basically meaningless. I was simply surprised to get any reply at all.

Delaying tactics They want to prevent anyone from spoiling the surprise, so they deny it right away! Wishful thinking :shifty:
But what if they really take into consideration that Seattle is the last show and that people maybe got tickets because it's so important to them to see the very last show? What if Stone has a root canal appointment on the 7th, or it's a band member's grammy's birthday? Or or or ... :think:

No idea why they answered, my guess if they are getting crushed with emails from members asking about a 2nd date and finally decided to reply to hopefully calm it down some

I will not give up hope that they WILL add a second show. Years ago they added on a second show at Memorial Stadium. And that's the only way I was able to get tickets
It's been 13 years since I've seen them & 13 years since I won tickets to seeing them at the Key! Come on Pearl Jam please, please, please add a second show :!:
9/6/93: Portland Meadows Portland, OR
7/22/98: Memorial Stadium Seattle, WA
11/5/00: Key Arena Seattle, WA
11/29/13: Rose Garden Portland, OR
11/30/13: Rogers Arena Vancouver, BC
12/6/13: Key Arena Seattle, WA
10/22/14: Pepsi Center Denver, CO

I've been to all the Seattle Arena/Gorge shows since that second memorial stadium show in '98. It's still my 2nd favorite PJ show I've seen in Seattle (next to Gorge '05). I often wonder why they haven't played there again. Is the venue still operational?
