    Just out of curiosity, has Pearl Jam ever canceled/postponed a concert due to rain?  I'm almost 50 so I need to rely on others for memory at this point in life =)  
    They canceled one in South America this year. Its not the rain, its lightning that is the problem.
    That was the rain and wind though. It fucked the grounds up pretty bad. That night wasn't even that bad as far as I remember. 

    Tuesday thunderstorms now. WE GOT THIS!!

    If memory serves, they didn't cancel.  The government of Argentina canceled it for them.

  • We are flying in Saturday morning. Reserve seating for saturday and monday shows. Flying out Tuesday morning. THis weekend will be my first and second PJ concerts. Hope to see both of them. Between plane tickets, hotel, Uber and train passes, boarding the dogs, airport parking, 2 vacation days, it should be all worth it. However, I wont be able to extend the trip if Monday gets cancelled and moved to Tuesday 

    Wrigley 8/18/18

  • Finger crossed it all the weather moves to Tuesday but packing a rain jacket and poncho to be safe.

    Lyft around the city is sometimes faster than uber. 
    Air & Water Show too. If you’re new to Lyft they discount  your first 10 rides.

    I pulled a single from TM as the show came closer.
    Row D, Stones Side 
    Ticket marked Obstruction 
    It was the speaker wall in front of me. Stage lights helped stay warm. No idea how the hill people survived.
    Took the farmers roads back to Chi. Sunroof open, huge moon, heater on high, blasting PJ Verona or Milan.
    I still carry that stub, I want it autographed!

    And of course this is the show I win backstage passes for.  Uuuuuuuugggggghhhhhhh

    Backstage????  Nice!  How'd you end up with those?  Hopefully things work out for Monday...
    I won them through global citizen. I was so pumped and now I am so deflated. 
    You serious man? If so, I REALLY hope they get this one in for your sake. Let Mother Nature be on our side! 
    I am dead serious. I am on Pearl Jam’s guest list! I am still taking it all in. 
    A weather delay would be good for you.  More time being backstage with the band.  
    Now that, sir, is a prime example of finding the good in things!
