It’s 6 o clock on a Sunday. The Regular crowd shuffle in

There’s some old fans listening next to me...just hoping that they will win

He says, Son, can you get me some tickets 

I really want to go to the show

But it's sad and it's sweet and I would feel complete

I could win for the Apollo show

La la la, di da da

La la, di da da da dum

Come and get us some tickets, PJ radio man 

Get us some tickets tonight 

Well, we're all in the mood for some melodies 

Pearl Jam gets  us feelin' alright

Now Rob With some tickets is a friend of mine

He puts up the tickets we need

And he's quick with the new singles  

Need an Apollo pair to mingle 

There is no place that We’d rather be...

We says Rob, I believe this is killing me 

As the smile ran away from our face

Well we’re sure that We could be at the PJ concert

If we could all just get some tickets for the Apollo in this place!!!

Oh, la la la, di da da

La la, di da da da dum

@NHiding

Nicely done!
Now where do we pick up our tickets?😄

First, I want to say that I’m very grateful to Pearl Jam Radio for making the Apollo event happen, whether or not I get to attend, if and when it does happen. Now, having listened to the station quite closely for the past month or so, admittedly in hopes of winning tickets to the exclusive event, I think it’s fair to observe that the station’s programming is not suited to prolonged listening. There is simply too much repetition—for example, both singles from the new album are played every hour. Like most PJ fans, I’m excited about the new album, but catching the same two songs every hour is a bit much. Also, the same 3-4 commentaries from the band members—e.g. Stone affirming that Led Zeppelin is his favorite band of all time, immediately followed by rotating classics from that band—are repeated multiple times each day. I want to say there is also heavy emphasis in the playlist on the biggest PJ hits like Daughter and Black, with both studio and live versions of these airing frequently. This is not a critique of Pearl Jam Radio, I am merely conveying my thoughts on the station programming and perhaps hinting towards some possible improvements, particularly for those who care listen for longer continuous periods. And I sincerely applaud the station’s original content like the Guest DJ and the Forum of the Faithful—programs such as these really bring the station to life. So keep up the good work and thanks again for offering us the exclusive event.

They don’t always play the same two songs every hour... that’s just ramping up to the album release. If you listen regularly, they play two full shows everyday and always have fresh commentary and programming from guest star dons and fans doing wishlist. It’s terrific programming.

when you are forced to listen to 5 hour blocks all in the same month... that’s not real world listening so of course it seems a little odd.

Isn’t Mike saying Led Zep is his favorite band.  Stone has really been thinking about Radiohead

No no.  Zeppelin is Stone’s favorite band but he cant stop thinking about Radiohead

And Mike is appreciative of RHCP letting them sound check
