    So why didn't everyone just confront these idiots and tell them it's not happening?? I doubt it would have actually lead to a rumble in the parking lot. They would back down and smarten up if everyone else in the line refused to be on the list and refused to let anyone cut in line. How come everyone is so scared of the list people?? Are they particularly intimidating? Armed? I don't get it.

    Me Neither. Didn't hear or see anything about it in OKC or Dallas.


    OKC had the venue staff enforcing the list because "this is what Pearl Jam wants". Hard to disregard the list and it's people when security is involved.

    I wonder if they were telling the truth about it being what PJ wants?? I doubt it. They just knew it would make everyone cooperate and reduced their chances of having issues with the line people.

    Someone got mugged in front of the Oracle building today...for reals. Now she doesn't have her passport, can't pick up her tickets to Spokane, or Seattle, and can't go to the Vancouver show.

    I'm pretty sure they lied out their ass about "what PJ wants" but the event staff bought it.

    If some random fan was telling me to get a number and write my name in a book, I would tell him exactly where he could put his little notebook. It becomes a whole different animal when the people that CAN keep me from entering the building are involved.

    Someone tries to cut ahead of me with some list in their hands, I'm grabbing that list and making like Lou Brown in Major League when Roger Dorn handed him his contract.

    I heard about this too, I hope the 10 club can work around this so at least she can go to the shows. I know she was at the Brazilian consulate, so maybe they can some how issue her a temp id that would suffice. The poor girl is going to leave the US with a very bad taste in her mouth otherwise. I know people want to be first in line, but you have to be realistic, lining up in Oakland, CA at 5:30am is not the greatest idea in the world.

    that being said, I wish her luck. Poor thing.
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    That suuuuuucks! .... Doubt it was a line person or a 10C member who robbed her though. There is a lesson here: Never walk around with your passport unless you're heading to/from the airport/border!!!

    a list? come on!

    and one that the list makers think they can delagate who goes on it and where? :sick:

    Just another reason why some pj fans are elitist, self absored, entitled a-holes. someone deserves a kick in the stones...

    im seeing more and more of these reasons each day why i decide i wont associate with other fans at shows.

    im in and out like white ninja

    I'm with you on not associating with people. I meet up with people I already know and have a great time.

    It's sad for those of you who can do GA. I admit I am jealous of not being able to get GA (I have PTSD and close quarters like that trigger my PTSD) so I do reserve seats because I still have that little bit of space.

    But to me it seems like every city has had a GA issue. It's pretty shitty that people think they are entitled to a spot I'm glad I know I won't have to put up with this shit.
    My butt itches!

    Yeah, another good point. Just because it's for PJ, it doesn't mean being all alone in a strange city with lots of crime for a GA line up will be safe!

    OKC had the venue staff enforcing the list because "this is what Pearl Jam wants". Hard to disregard the list and it's people when security is involved.

    So... I can't remember where I read it, but it was pretty recently. There was an article with Tim Bierman (president of 10 Club), and he stated that "the list" was a load of BS. If anyone can find it, please post a link.

    What do you mean. Can't you just use your driver's license or other government ID from your own country??

    That's sucks for the girl from Brazil. Hope she had photocopy of her passport or other proof of identification for the consulate. Hope it wasn't one of the girls on the rail next to me in Phoenix. Nice people... Shame some stupid fuck robbed her, if this is true story. :nono:
