    Yup, over here. It's actually for a friend, but I told her I'm keeping my eyes open for her.

    Hi, does anyone possess a spare standing ticket for ISS dome in Duesseldorf? Would be very grateful for a chance to buy it!

    With the venue change, the standing tickets sold for the LTU arena may well end up being seated tickets.

    Beavis : Is this Pearl Jam?
    Butt-head: This guy makes faces like Eddie Vedder.
    Beavis: No, Eddie Vedder makes faces like this guy.
    Butt-head: I heard these guys, like, came first and Pearl Jam ripped them off.
    Beavis: No, Pearl Jam came first.
    Butt-head: Well, they both suck.

    Ahh this is great! We'll have to meet up before the show, we could head off to the venue together too.

    when will everybody arrive? We'll get there the day of the concert, I'm not sure what time we'll be there and when we can check in etc. Most likely have a good lunch and bratwurst and off to the venue. It's coming close!

    We get there the day before, the hotel isn't too far away from the venue if i remember correctly. You wanting to get to the arena early?

    Not sure how early, kinda depends on when the doors open. In Arnhem I was there at 3pm and friends who came around 6pm still had entrance to the front area, now I know Gelredome is bigger, but this time i'm not going really early, dunno what time doors open in Dusseldorf..

    We should really organise a meet-up spot for the pre-show party. Any body have any ideas?

    I booked a room at The Tulip, right by the LTU arena when the show was going to be there. But, I'm not locked into that, and was wondering if there are any better choices now that the venue has changed. Any advice? I am already booked for the night before at the backpackers hostel... but was going to change the night of the show.

    Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    just a fyi: Mate of mine saw Interpol this week in Amsterdam and told me they rocked hard, so I presume it'll be a great opener!

    and I've been listening to the Futureheads and they have some great tracks too!

    Saw Interpol two years ago at the Oxegen Festival over here in Ireland. They were epic to say the least. I'm not too keen about having two openers though, surely this will only cut into the length of the PJ set list... unless they want to break curfew again, which of course I have no problem with :D

    Looks like we chose a good hotel then, full of PJ fans! See you all there i hope.

  • Realized this might be a better place for this post.

    I just found out that I need to go to the Netherlands for work the same week as PJ will be in Dusseldorf - I will be about 35 miles away. There is no way I am going to let this pass by without trying to get into this show.

    Will there be scalpers outside of the venue? Will I have a decent shot at getting a ticket? Every US show there is always someone selling but I don't know what to expect here. Also, any locals have any idea how I might be able to get from Venlo to Dusseldorf? I think there was a rail link between the two but I am not sure how this might work trying to get back after the show - I need to be back to work for Friday AM. I will ride a bike if I have to. I am really looking forward to experiencing PJ in an European setting, should be a blast!

    Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
