Everything downtown is sold out or over $300 a night at this point. Sucks because when i was first thinking of doing this trip downtown was around $150 and there were plenty of rooms. Will be staying about 3-4 miles away and probably take a cab in or something. Though I am keeping my eye open for rooms opening up.
So, I guess the best way to avoid having to drive to/from the show/downtown is just to take cabs? Or is uber an option?? i've heard of it but not quite sure how it works or if the cost is solely based on miles, etc???

I read there is going to be a "Wishlist Pre Party"? I spoke to a bar owner today and he will have the pre party. Drink and food specials, Pearl jam on radio, giveaways etc. It is just a couple of blocks to the venue. How do I get in touch with the Pre Party folks? I have no problem setting it all up. Just so glad Pearl Jam in in my hometown again after 18 years! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Uber is a great option here. Plenty of uber drivers. If you have a friend who uses uber, they can send you an offer for a free ride up to $20. That's a good deal.
I live at a huge loft complex a mile and a half from downtown. They have a corporate apartment they rent out. It is 2 bed 2 bath loft apartment. Huge open floor plan and lines are included. Fully furnished. Just no shampoo and soap. I just called and it's available on 4/16. It's only 150 for the night. $100 security deposit. Whomever rents it signs the agreement for the night. I have lived here for 4 years and it's a great place. Pool, game room, workout room, grills etc. Let me know if you are interested and super responsible. Can't trash the place that's for sure. I can give you further details. Just trying to help fellow PJ fans. Thanks.
I know this is a long shot but if anyone would like my two reserved for two GA, I would gladly make the trade!!! I also have two extra seats in 205 to offer.
I'll ride the wave where it takes me...

I am not sure if this is still accurate but the last time I was in GA, was I think New Jersey it really sucked that anyone who had a reserved seat could come into the GA section but the GA holders could not go into the Reserved seat sections and the GA got crushed after standing there thru some shit band that I will not name. There were fights breaking out and pushing and shoving it was out of control, I swore that was the last GA I was up for, of course I am 60 so that is different than most of you guys and gals. Just sayin'

I always love to hit the pre-party and visit with old friends and do the raffle for a good cause. I hope there is one and if so I look forward to meeting you.

for the pre party you can contact the Wishlist Foundation at wishlistfoundation.org. I am sure they would be thankful for your help - they are all great people.

Scott - I might be interested in that loft apartment. When would I have to let you know by? I do have my tickets already via lottery. Also, great idea with the preparty. Pretty sure there's a bunch of us coming down from Detroit to catch this show - so please let me know any of the plans - we'd love to be involved.

This is definitely not the case anymore....not sure when the Jersey show took place you are referring to above, but GA gets a wristband and they most definitely do not let non-ga ticket holders down into the general admission area. I went to the Spokane show and the Denver show in GA last time around and it was the best. Everyone around me was perfect. Not rowdy one bit...in fact, I remember thinking they could have sold a lot more tickets on the floor. The back of the floor felt downright spacious. I'm not the type to sit at the arena for hours on end in line to get to the rail, the back of the was great....I couldn't recommend it anymore unless you need or like to sit.

I liked the Trappe Door in downtown greenville. Very good selection of Belgium beers and strong enough american craft. Food was very good. I would not call this place cheap but it is not fine dining... kind of nice gastro pub style.
Dude you made my day by mentioning this place. I love Belgian beers! Coming in from out of town and I now have my drinking spot for the few days I'm there

Just booked my flight and confirmed my car rental. Pretty stoked.
Depart Toronto at 8:45am on Saturday and arrive in Atlanta at 11:00am. Hop in the rental car and enjoy the 2 hour drive to Greenville. Arrive in Greenville ~2:00pm and take in as much as I can before the show. After the concert enjoy the post-show celebration before hitting the road back to Atlanta. Aim to return the rental car at ~4:00am and catch the 6:00am flight departure to arrive back in Toronto at 8:00am on Sunday morning. Done and done.

Thanks for Wishlist info CapnBob. I will contact them today about the pre party. It's going to be a great time in Greenville with PJ and all the fans!
No problem bro - hope it works out, I enjoy the Wishlist pre party's and raffles.

Very happy to see Greenville for the first time at the umpteenth time I've seen PJ! I booked the La Quinta Inn on Woodruff for like $70/night (scary!). Hopefully, it's close, looked like it.

Wow..that's a quick turn around. It's gonna be fun.
I'll be a the venue with or without ticket, but would like to be set beforehand...!
I have to swap: 1 Hampton 10club Reserved (130xxx) 1 Raleigh 10 club Reserved (130xxx) 1 Columbia GA 1 or 2 Columbia 10club Reserved (130xxx) - I could trade the pair for a Greenville single and get paid face value for the 2nd ticket
Looking forward to this show - staying at embassy suit so planning on using hotel shuttle, hopefully that plan will work out post show... already getting really excited to see PJ for the 7th time
Can't wait! Parents lined up to watch the kids, and the wife and I get a weekend in a great town to watch our favorite band! Doesn't get much better......at least for us anyway! hahaha!

I have to swap:
1 Hampton 10club Reserved (130xxx)

1 Columbia GA
1 or 2 Columbia 10club Reserved (130xxx) - I could trade the pair for a Greenville single and get paid face value for the 2nd ticket
or I'll pay face value
