10c sale is this weekend. no word yet on public sale. my morning jacket opens for them. nice.

I've got my eye on that show at Van Andel. Pearl Jam has always been a band I've wanted to see live.

TRIPLE nice!!!!

Got my tickets allready...... May 9th in TO...

My morning Jacket makes it all the more epic.

Got the e-mail from Ticketmaster this morning...tickets for the shows at Van Andel and the Palace go on sale Saturday morning.

Gee, I hope they come to the Northwest.

We don't get to see such cutting-edge acts around here very often.

On a related note, Built to Spill has postponed their Detroit show in April. I'm half tempted to use a mad faced smiley, but I...just...can't....do it.

see you bitches in gr.

BTS is playing GR?

I think he's referring to PJ.

I fucked up and slept in on Saturday and missed my chance at the best seats. I wanted to get two tickets in case someone wanted to tag along...wink wink. Plus, I've got some other friends that live up there that might be interested in going. I might look later at Stub Hub or something if someone is selling their tickets. $50 is pretty steap for a show as it is...they'll only get worse when I buy them from someone else who is probably looking to turn a profit. Stupid me, I'm going to turn around drop $100+ on a Wings playoff ticket in the nosebleeds when those go on sale but I won't spend $50 to sit in the upper tank at a concert considering all seats cost the same. I loving being up close to the stage. If I can't be up close, I won't bother going.

Get tenclub ... you are basically assured to get some fo the best seats in the house.

It costs 10 bucks a year, but i have gone to 5 shows in the last 3 years, all with great seats.... some on floor, some about 3 to 10 rows up on the side of the arena.

Well worth it IMO

That was sort of a subtle jab by me...I'll try and be more clear....he's assuming I'm going to PJ in GR.

there are very few bands i'd pay huge jack to see in an arena/stadium nowadays: pj, rush, radiohead, and the boss are all i can think of right now. $60 OTD for pj is worth it considering they'll play 25-30 songs per night and you never know what you're going to hear, except for the usual live staples. i'll spend that $60 even faster to see pj in a 11k seat arena like van andel before a 20k seat place like the united center or the palace. we had good seats at the uc when i saw them in 03 but there were a LOT of people high up behind us. every seat at van andel arena is a good seat when you keep it in perspective. and if pearl jam is going to play within an hour of me, well even better.
