    They've been there for days.  They just aren't selling.

    I guess it's a bit of west coast effect.  The cities here are all a little further apart.   You can string together a road trip of dates as easily due to driving distances.  Quite often the more remote west coast cities don't have the demand that the eastern shows do.  They usually sell out (eventually) but it makes it moderately easier to get tickets (except in seattle).

    I’ve noticed that this: https://community.pearljam.com/discussion/284317/2-exclusive-tickets-to-intimate-pearl-jam-concert-on-march-26-at-apollo-theatre-in-nyc/p1

    is one of the few threads on this forum that you haven’t dropped by to turn into a discussion of how PJ is manipulating its fans into paying unaffordable ticket prices (for reasons that I’m still struggling to understand). Unlike the MSG show, in this case winning that auction actually is the only way to buy your way into the show (as far as I can tell). I’m curious whether you have a problem with the charity auction for Apollo tickets, and if not what you see as the difference between that and the Vitalogy tickets for the regular tour stops. 


    that is not a word I have used, but the market prices did not set itself. Many fans were confused at the rumor phase of two East shows. Seemed to not make sense. If they were squaring away Cali or Canada for lack of shows there, why squeeze in 2 shows if there no time for the East? Of course we can rationalize any decision that might explain the decisions made. But the fact remains NY is possibly the only market that can support a $4600 per pair Ticketmaster listing. An auction is much different than a TM listing, but those bids are not exponentially higher due to the limited East appearances and zero news on the fall?

    most fans with other significant obligations are smart enough to walk away from something this enticing. Some might not be.

    The answer of course is to boycott New York until it rescinds its shortsighted scalper protection laws. Service the east by playing Boston, Hartford, Jersey, Philly. Include Toronto and Cleveland. Plenty of shows for New Yorkers to attend without helping scalpers make money.

    I don’t think they are, no.

    Ultimately, skipping NYC would hurt fans. And realistically, NYC won’t really be affected by one band boycotting the city. Pearl Jam made an unprecedented number of tickets available for the Ten Club. So most fans at the MSG show will have paid face-value. Fans have the option to buy or not buy tickets from the secondary market. However, if they don’t play NYC, then thousands of fans will definitely miss out. But I agree that I hope all of the cities you mentioned are included on full tours since so many fans (like me) seem to have missed out on MSG.

    It is what it is.  One NYC show and one industry gig with no other show for hundreds of miles. It is simple math.  A ton of fans wont get it. Mostly likely me included.  If there are any drops for MSG, they will be very limited and probably crappy seats.

    I'm really curious to see what the scene is like outside MSG in the hours leading up to the show.  I assume that some people without tickets will head over for merch and hang around to see if anyone has an extra....but the normal situation with the scalpers roaming around asking who has extras and who needs would seem impossible, unless they plan on selling fake hard tickets to suckers that don't know any better.

    Can we keep this chat to ticket drops? Some of us get an email everytime people get into a cat fight or discuss the merits of the NYC ticket demand.

     Careful with those S.T.D. Tickets 
    It may lead to E.D. and then you can just forget about F.
