    pretty sure its true why make it up and tell other ppeople..honesty is honesty just as yourself is being..

    I saw this option too on the Ticketmaster Mexico website, but I did a little more digging and it may be inside a secure area. So if you're not arriving inside that secure area in that terminal, it may not be possible. I'm not familiar enough with the airport in MC to know whether I will be able to access this pick up location. At any rate, there are a number of these Ghandhi book stores around the city where they also do "will call" delivery, including one a few blocks from my hotel. That is where I'm going to try to pick up.

    Who knew I should be planning my outfit for the show over a week in advance...

    Does anyone know of good place to go Friday night or if there is somewhere a group is already going? I'm thinking it would be great to hang out with a bunch of people down there for the show.

    Its so hard to get any information about the event or the venue from ticket master. I called and they really couldn't tell me anything. I'm guessing most people will not be there 48hrs prior to the event that are travelling internationally.I'm thinking we should all be good to go.

    Am I the only one that booked the Grand Prix? Nice hotel, 3 minute walk from the stadium.

    Let's have some drinks at the Grand Prix after and keep the party going.. Then everyone can get cabs/shuttle from there.

    Party on Wayne!

    Hey DSTRUB,

    We're getting in Friday early evening and are staying Friday night at the Grand Prix. No Saturday stay as heading to airport after for 6am flight back home. We're up for drinks or taxi to pre party perhaps.

    We should be buzzin hard after the show, so some after party drinks there will keep the buzz goin! Hopefully the hotel doesn't care!

    I am checking in hopefully early Saturday to Grand Prix

    Hello All!

    I will also be going to the Pearl Jam concert in Mexico City on Saturday November 28th. I will be staying at the Riazor Hotel,

    I am flying in from United States (Tulsa, OK). I will actually be arriving next Tuesday and will be leaving on the 30th.

    I am a little worried about getting a ride back to the hotel after the show as it looks like it would not be the safest walk.

    If anyone wants to get together before the show or share a ride afterwards let me know!

    I also have an extra GA ticket if anyone is interested.

    This is what it says when I log on to Ticketmaster and check my order:

    "Your tickets are being held at the venue's box office for pick up day of the event.
    Present your photo ID and the credit card you used for purchase at the time you pick up your tickets. Will Call pick up varies by venue & event but is usually available 90 minutes prior to the start time of the event."

    Is this not legit?
