    I'm going to Seattle so I'm hoping for a second show, but just wondering why they wouldn't announce it at the same time as Worcester if it was going to happen?

    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 8-)

    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 :!:

    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?
    I believe they still use it for bumpershoot

    Memorial Stadium is still in operation. They use it mostly for football games & used to for Bumbershoot too. I haven't been to Bumbershoot in years though. I think it was a GEM of a show since it was for charity & it seems like a rather small venue in comparison to others. We saw a Husky scrimmage game there this past spring. I hadn't been there since 98' I was shocked. I think it is still my favorite PJ show though. I'll never forget hearing Yellow Ledbetter at the close. Good thing they brought in their own sound equipment. The sound there was absolutely HORRIBLE for the UW game lol.

    I've never been to the Gorge. It's on my bucket list though. I sure would LOVE to see PJ outdoors again. :corn:

    allthought they SHOULD still use it for Bumbershhot, i think they focus so hard on making BUmbershoot the WORST most embarrassingly awful festival in the nation, they now have all main acts in the Key Arena. I have not been there for years either, but that is because they consistently book headliners that should be headlining the Paramount or the Moore. every year it gets worse and costs more.

    Worcester is in the first leg, and Seattle is in the second... The dates are what? Nearly a couple of months apart? We could be waiting a while before we either hear a show announcement or give up hope.

    Also, people still seem to be able to pull Seattle tickets from TM. So even though the website says it's sold out, maybe it's not? Get 'em tickets, people! :mrgreen:
  • Seattle's show is definitely Sold Out.
    It does say "NOT MANY LEFT" but when I tried this was the reply I got "High demand! No matches...
    Search again for these tickets (a fan may have let them go) or change quantity/ticket type."

    Not sold out. I just found a single in sec 225 (not that I can go :cry: ). Obviously only singles beside and behind the stage are left.

    yeah, if there are any other shows to be rolled over, they may come first. Even west coast rollover dates.
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...

    I was using ticketmaster.ca instead of .com.... I can't see why that would matter, but....

    Mine showed section 222 just now. Will try to tweak around a bit. Thank you!
    I wasn't logged in so maybe that made the difference. Section 222 is behind the stage.

    We will also be behind the stage, but there are so many people from here in that section that it's gonna be a blast :D

    Best of luck of scoring what you want!

    I mentioned this a few pages back but it appears to have been overlooked..

    Do you think they are waiting to announce a second show in order to sell more tickets to other NW shows; ie - Portland Spokane, Vancouver?

    It would make sense that if there were two Seattle shows people wouldn't be as interested to go to Portland or Spokane etc...

    Just putting that out there. We may get lucky next Monday and announce our show like they did with Boston.

    Also - Berlin 2 2012 and Prague were announced a few weeks after the initial sale... So don't give up hope!

    This CAN and probably WILL happen!! Keep the faith guys!

    Very possible they're waiting for those shows to sell more tix. There are TONS of tickets still available for Vancouver. Like, in the thousands it looks like. To the point that I'm a little concerned.... Wtf Vancouver????? What happened to your taste in music?? :fp: Also, it looks like very few people from the US are willing to cross the border for some reason. Not sure why that is.

    Well, as somebody who just crossed the border over the last 2 days to see Jay Z / Justin Timberlake in Vancouver (no comments from the peanut gallery), the border, and traffic in general, were absolutely miserable. Took over 5 hours both ways. I'm glad I picked Portland as my fallback show this tour instead of Vanc, not sure I could handle that drive again.

    Say what? "Took over 5 hours both ways." .. from Seattle to Vancouver? I gotta plan more time on the trip. Before the Vancouver show I'm heading up from Seattle for 2 day's. Then the day after the show heading back down to Seattle.

    Kinda shocked Vancouver hasn't been sold out yet, where it's a city close to Seattle. I would be making the trip up if I lived that close. Show would of been sold out by now if it was happening @ the Halifax Metro Centre I'll tell ya. :idea:

    The train is the only way to travel between Seattle and Vancouver. There's a beer car for your drinking needs and the price is very reasonable if you get your tickets early. Plus it's a beautiful trip.
