MarcO Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 well personally I can't stand them but if you are a fan, here's a heads-up that Canadian tour dates are forthcoming. and their front homepage seems to suggest that is indeed the case (you'll need sound to catch my drift): www.pearljam.com apparently they have one of those clubs you can join giving you preferred seating. So if you are into it, now is the time to look into it. good luck Pearl Jam fans!
c-towns Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 i only see dates for the 2003 tour, wtf a-hole?
MarcO Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Posted April 13, 2005 hey, then just ignore it.hmmmm. opening page is playing "O Canada" and their official message board is all abuzz with talk of imminent Canadian dated being announced. They're even suggesting people sign up for fanclub ticketing status by April 19th, so as to be prepared for when the dates are announced.I'm really only trying to get word out because I know there are some huge PJ fans out there.Last you'll hear of this from me.
CookieMonster Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 This is very exciting indeed! The club is called "Ten Club" (I know because I'm in it :blush:). I decided when I was 14 that I was going to marry Eddie Vedder...I LOVE those guys!
meggo Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 I decided when I was 14 that I was going to marry Eddie Vedder...meeee tooooooo! boy was i miffed when he married that beth girl. my penchant for eddie has since waned... however i would check out a show if one came around.
Lazlo Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 Nay on the Pearl Jam but I wouldn't mind a pearl necklace. Splooch Splooch.

SolarGarlic Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 There ya go Cookie! That should make you a happy little gal HE might propose this time around you know Cheers, I'll be trying for tickets myself...
Gr8FuL Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The tickets prices are listed in the price of a pair...its about 60$, not too bad!! I'll be hittin up the Halifax show for sure......not sure why they stilll have rooms at the hilton in Saint John booked, must just be a stop over, since they arent gonna be playing here!!
Homestar_Runner Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The tickets prices are listed in the price of a pair...its about 60$, not too bad!! I believe those prices are also in USD. That works out to approximately $75.00 Canadian. I'm hoping to see at least one of them.
jonyak Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 that is an insane amount of money for a band who at one time was fighting for lower ticket prices, and who puts on possibly the most dull live performance.
secondtube Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 jonyak, i'll stand firm in saying pearl jam has been consistantly the BEST touring band of the 2000's. i'm sorry you think they put on a dull live performance...some of it may not be technically perfect, but dull it is not.
Tooly Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 damn thats alot of money for such a sucky band
SmoothedShredder Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Yes, lasts years show in Toronto, which included someone falling out of a tree for "In my tree" (Thanks God! He was okay of course). Eddie getting drunk off of Wine given to him by Geddy Lee that day or the day before, and feeding it to a mask of GWB which he wore out on stage for the encore and then placed on his mic stand for some Vintage Geddy wine tasting... and then for the Triple Encore(ok, 2nd maybe, I could be hyping it too much), he defied security and came crashing out after the house lights came on, to then play Baba O'Riely to a crowd who was scattering back to their seats becasue they assumed it was over!!! Also, too many Ramone covers (those guys were sucky too. Kidding) Truly boring... I won't even trouble you with the voice echo-sample delay chant Eddie opened the 3rd encore with in Montreal the night after... too boring... hehe... Or that during three nights in Boston, and over 8 hours of performance, they managed to play over 100 different songs... none longer than 7:00mins. Clearly not enough to keep my attention... But I guess this wouldn't be Canada without someone piping in and sharing their negative sentament Kitchener... what! Goulet!!! ~W
jonyak Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 hey man just my opinion.. I used to be there number 1 fan..then they became mediocre. sorry
secondtube Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 see, i used to be a mediocre fan....then started listening to the LIVE, as opposed to the radio, then realized not only are they amazing live, they are only getting better!!!its not often when your on purposely picking the latest shows to listen to, rather than the earliest stuff....other than for Neil Young and Pearl Jam, i can't think of any other band that "I" consider "improving"...most are just floating along, enjoying average success.
secondtube Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 but, for those of us who are fans, and want to go to the shows...i must ask:what is the best way for a NON ten club member to possibly get tickets?how popular are pearl jam in southern ontario? is kitchener on a sunday night gonna sell out w/in minutes?what about hamilton on a wednesday? i'd like to go to both these shows....think TM will be a possability?
SmoothedShredder Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 It certainly will test the market in a unique way. I'm thinking it will be a quick sell... U2esque... but with 6, or 7 shows within 7 Hours of Toronto... you could find yourself getting very lucky, or not lucky at all... all-in-all membership has it's privlidges . But as you can see from this thread, not everyone is going... so what do I know? BTW, I would think my definition of a Number 1 fan is someone who looks forward to the maturation of a band... and not someone desperately holding on to a moment in time they can never hold on to again... Perhaps you require McCready back on the juice inorder to hear what your looking for, but I prefer him in his current happy and healthy state. But once again, what do I know... I'm new here. ~W
secondtube Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 i assume your getting your full allotement of tickets?i'd only be looking for a single...i dont think T would want to go....
