    Attendance for McCartney in 2014 was 25,192...I find it hard to believe they'll squeeze in another 10k
    How can that be? You mean the show in July of 2013? The capacity of Safeco is around 48,000 and the field was full. I was there and it was totally packed (other than the outfield seats behind the stage). Seattle Weekly said 45,000 attended which would make sense (less rear outfield seats plus on-field seating).
    SEA 9/20/92, SEA 12/7/93, SEA 12/31/94 (MS), SEA 11/5/00, SEA 11/6/00, SEA 12/8/02, SEA 12/9/02, BEN 10/22/03, GOR 9/1/05, SD 7/7/06, LA 7/10/06, LA 7/12/06, LA (EV) 4/12/08, LA (EV) 4/13/08, LA 7/12/08, LA 9/30/09, LA 10/7/09, SEA 12/6/13, SEA 8/8/18

    Read the fine print and make sure they do not have the right to raise the price on you. Fenway they do according to what event is going on. 
    N'ah both the rate and the spot are guaranteed. 
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    They're talking about the McCartney show in Missoula, MT. Not his show at Safeco Field.

    Wouldn't Seattle too? 
    First show in 5yrs. Only west coast shows this year. Why wouldn't they sell out fast. 
    That's what I think. Plus, this is their first time doing a show in the summer since the 90s. Maybe since the 1998 Yield Tour? All the Seattle shows after that have been in the fall or dead of winter. Add to the fact there will be traveling fans in the middle of travel season, I think it will sell out just as quickly as the others.

    Wow, hotel rates in Boston are insane.  Looks like AirBNB may be better

    I was joking, but anyone who complained just got their rate raised $15.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    Jesus Christ hotels in Seattle with "group rate" discounts are insane. Pearl Jam have basically turned in to a destination event with their concerts. People traveling to them instead of the other way around and dropping $1500+ on a hotel stay alone. The Silver Cloud "official" hotel for these concerts, I originally thought it was $449 for 3 nights! Ha! 
    i really hope this doesn't become a trend and we still get proper arena tours.  Not everyone can afford to travel across the country for these destination shows.  I'd love to make it to the Seattle shows but it's just not in the cards for me this year.  And my brother lives there so I'd have free lodging.

    I'm at a point now where I don't even think about hotels.  It's airbnb every time, all the time.  

    Much like Uber vs cabs?  When's the last time anyone took a cab (if Uber is available?)

    Probably want to give the Seattle event a few days to be in the spotlight. Hopefully get the remainder of the dates within the next few days.

    I'm thinking tomorrow is the day for the rest of the shows to be announced.  Then have lottery signups starting tomorrow and run through monday at noon. But thats just a guess.

    I'm guessing Friday is the rest of the dates, with ticket info and pre-sale through next week.

    They announced lotto winners Feb 8th for Wrigley/Fenway for 2016 for what it's worth.  Chicago shows were 8/20 & 8/22, Fenway was 8/5 & 8/7
