    There is a difference between playing three full shows in a row and playing a few songs at a fan club only event in between two shows. If you go in expecting the band to appear and play 30 songs you are going to be disappointed. But 2 or 3? That is quite possible.

    I'm still looking for a ticket should anyone have a spare. I'm happy to play tour guide if you're an out of towner and introduce you to a pretty darn cool group of friends who already have tickets if you're feeling social.

    Exactly. I'm thinking a 6 song set. All acoustic except for last song which will be Porch and Ed crowd surfs, lol

    I think anything is possible, since they haven't played in the city of Boston since 2010. It's always been a special city for the band.

    A 4-6 song set over an hour or so. If they picked out some of their favorites and talked about how they wrote the song as a group before each song that would be the most special ever.

    I love the old boots where crowd noise was the standard. It just felt more real

    +1
    Made you were feel like you were there. The 2010 boots were the last ones I remember that you could really here the crowd noise. Hopefully they change it going forward so you get some of the crowd. That being said, it's nice that we can even get boots from the shows we attend in the first place

    The band could just walk in, say hello, then walk out and I'd be ecstatic.

    I'm not attending Fenway 1. I have an extra for Fenway 2. (My extra for Fenway 2 was sold but now it's available bc the buyer wanted 4 seats together and fortunately for her she found them.)

    I'd love to sell my extra Fenway 2 to someone who has an extra HOB ticket or who can connect me to an extra. All I wish for is as advertised.... A screening of the show I'm missing in a room with a bunch of other pj fans. How amazing will that be???

    They probably will have Pearl Jam popcorn + drink combos @ the HOB. Won't be surprised if every one in the audience will be taking home limited edition Pearl Jam Cracker Jack boxes. :p

    I thought the House of Blues was a restaurant. Or am I thinking of another place.

    House of Blue Orlando is a restaurant and music venue.

    HOB in Chicago & Boston each have what's called 'the foundation room' which is separate restaurant from the concert hall. Both are considered part of the HOB.

    edit: this could be the case for all HOBs, I've only been to the Chicago & Boston locations.

    So, will I be able to have dinner from the restaurant while watching the show? I don't want to be hangry during the screening.

    I was thinking the same thing. My wife will be about 5 months preggers and will want to eat

    Past events I've been to at the HOB Boston have required a separate ticket for the Foundation Room on a show night. May be worth giving them a call to confirm if that is your plan.

    Also, there are dozens of bars and restaurants in the area right around Fenway. You will have plenty of options to eat/drink before going in.
