    Hmmmm, since he wont make it to Chicago, what are the odds he'll go to the event in Boston to see Cubs at Fenway?

    VIP tickets are still available at $1200/pair.
    Another 10c member and I went in on it two years back and got front row. Shook Theo's hand but for some reason didn't think to take a pic with him. Some shots from that event: https://www.flickr.com/photos/tschavitz/albums/72157655715664765

    i just read about the boston event. i've been the paradise countless times. seeing eddie there would be a dream. all i see is a place to 'buy' the $1200 pair VIP package. where were the GA on sale/how much were they? i'm willing to pay a lot to be able to see this. think they'll be on secondary scalper sites or ebay soon?
    First Show: Springfield, MA 4/6/94

    Tickets were about $75 after fees for GA. Ticketmaster won't allow print-at-home tickets to be downloaded until the day before the show. Tickets can be transferred via Ticketmaster's site. Make sure you don't fall for scams if people claim to have e-Tickets they can mail you before the day of the show.

    How was the VIP Event? Did Eddie attend that? Did VIP get you early access to the floor and the rail? What can we expect for number of songs?

    Sorry for all the questions but trying to justify $$$

    From what I experienced in 2015 (things may play out differently at this event), you won't see Eddie mingling with the crowd before the show. VIPs get earlier access inside the venue, they cater an open bar/food, and there's a chance (no guarantee) of meeting people like I did with Theo Epstein. A few of us near the front of the VIP line decided to skip the food and took turns grabbing drinks for each other so we can hold our spots up front.

    The show itself is a few hours long, with local acts playing and more or less jam sessions with local celebs and performers. In between acts they'd auction off random items to benefit the foundation. EV was only expected to do 3 songs in 2015, but he did about 8-10 with others. I'd keep expectations low on how many songs you'll get, but if you're a fan of the Cubs/Red Sox, supporting local charities, and EV I'd recommend checking it out.

    I have the recording from last years event and it is in my opinion not to be missed. If you live near this, just go.

    Was EV advertised to show up at past shows like he is for this Boston show? Or were those unannounced? He did that two years in Chicago?

    They didnt announce last year. Liz Phair was the headliner and EV wasnt even on the lineup. The scuttlebutt started after he sang the stretch that day.
