    Not if the band just bought the venue for the weekend. They would make back the cost through the (tens of) thousands of loyal folks who would come and gladly pay for tickets for more than one night. Maybe it's an extra price to bring vehicles in for two or three days/nights....have some vendors available for food, water, a camping area, and of course, mega-merch! Seriously I think their management could handle it. It's not that complicated. Hire some volunteers to work food trucks or empty garbage cans and they get to see the shows.
    Oh it's so do-able.
    I'm getting those chills again....

    From FB:
    In light of recent events, I'm reposting this from our Wishlist Foundation Group for anyone interested.
    Back in early September, Wishlist Foundation began working on developing a fan-sourced (crowd-sourced) campaign to raise enough money to host a Pearl Jam concert weekend on or around October 22, 2015 at the infamous Gorge Amphitheater in Gorge, WA.
    Part 25th anniversary celebration, part thank you, part activism fan movement, Wishlist Foundation plans on rolling out this campaign between Christmas and New Years.
    Today another crowd-source event was announced to bring the band to Forest Hills, NY that will last the next 88 days. Wishlist was approached by the organizer to work together via PM, at which point I informed him of our existing plans, offered to work together/include him in ours and genuinely wished him well when he politely declined.
    Because our campaign will launch within the 88 days of the Forest Hills campaign, I thought it would be polite and in good community spirit to mention the Wishlist campaign in advance, as a preemptive attempt to dispel any potential negativity that Wishlist was trying to 'step on his toes or steal his thunder'. That isn't and won't be, our intent.
    We realize people are now interested in our campaign, but we're not ready to release any details more specific than I posted here. When we announce, we want to make sure we do it right - with facts, specific goals, specific ticket expectations, rewards, etc. We're not going to have our hand forced because someone else in our PJ community is borrowing the same awesome idea from the Foo Fighters fans.
    We LOVE the fan community. It is our family and has been for the last ten years. Myself, and all of us at Wishlist, genuinely believe that each and every fan can make a HUGE difference and a HUGE positive impact on the world, within our fan community and especially with each other.
    We've seen it happen. Witnessed your generosity and extraordinary efforts.
    Fan motivated and created events are how Wishlist started. We support lots of individual and smaller fan group related projects, causes and more. We've supported individuals and fans both publicly and quietly out of the public eye. I don't feel the need to list them - it's not about naming names to prove a point.
    We're grassroots. We're volunteers. We're fans. We wish everyone who is trying to do a good thing the best of luck. It's how we believe the world should be.
    "With my two hands, I can change the world"
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    OF COURSE it all depends on the band's desire to play where and when....really its up to them. Don't want to make them feel pressured I mean shit they do so much to show us their appreciation and get to as many cities as they can. Let's all just stay grateful. :)
