    if the people in the orchestra are going to be chilling doing nothing, then they're going to have to deal with me dancing and singing all over the place

    even if it doesnt selll out the seats will be filled


    you are right, Robin Hood will probably just give these tickets away to their larger donors for free, but they won't be appreciated. I am not a huge Allman fan but I sat on the side of the stage at a show at the Beacon 5 years ago and it was amazing, great venue. I hope this concert is awesome and I am wrong since I do plan on being there.

    Sounds kind of lame...

    When is this show, before or after MSG? If it's before, that's really not cool to the MSG attendees to expel energy on the "fancy people" that can afford to donate.

    How much were these tickets? $2500 for orchestra and $250 for balcony?

    One last question: Will they be hanging the Verizon text message screens on the Beacon stage?

    I'd have to agree with that. When I saw they were playing there I couldn't believe it. Great theatre for a show...especially them!
    crap, I can't think about it and must stop reading this thread...

    Let me start off by saying that I am still looking for an affordable ticket and plan on being there. I just got off the phone with Lucy and there are still plenty of $2,500 tickets available. I also have a friend that is going with his work tickets (8 of them) and he said the people with him will know 3 songs from Ten and be on their Blackberries the rest of the concert. I think the majority of the board will be rocking out in the balcony but not sure that the band will be putting on their usual performance with a ton of lame and bored people sitting in their seats front and center. Obviously just my opinion and with that being said I plan on being there and hope I'm wrong. Still looking for a ticket.



    huh?
    my enjoyment of a show is NOT dependent on those around me at ALL. sure, i totally get how the band feeds off the audience, etc...but i also believe pearl jam is WELL aware of who will be in the audience, and that does included ALL the fans who may not be front and center. i am sure the band can and WILL feel the collective energy of all the fans present. in a 3K seat venue, it will not be difficult for that vibe to flow from band to fans and vice versa.


    seeing pearl jam at the beacon = priceless. period. :) i KNOW i will not be let down.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    The only thing that's going to suck is a bunch of hip New York people will be sitting in the best seats. But if that forces the Olsen twins to give $2500 (each!) to charity instead of buying a new handbag or whatever, it can't be all bad.

    The other thing is it's the night after Mansfield II, so Ed's voice might be a little sore. An acoustic set would be sweet.
