Chicago...PRIVATE SHOW... ohmygod...

[panthergirl]

** Vic Theatre Private Show on Aug. 2nd! ** updated

--------------------------------------------------------------------

An exciting, rare show opportunity awaits you!

As you already know, Pearl Jam will be headlining the Lollapalooza Festival on August 5th. In preparation for the big Lolla event, they have decided to perform a smaller show on August 2nd at the legendary Vic Theatre in Chicago!

We are inviting you all to this special pre-Lollapalooza performance, but the Vic is an intimate little joint and therefore, we have a limited number of tickets to sell. However, we are offering the opportunity for you to purchase a pair of tickets for $150 USD plus applicable fees. No single tickets will be available. Tickets will be first come/first served. These tickets will be general admission, with no early entry. This show is 18 and over.

The ticket sale will begin on Thursday, July 26, 2007 at 11am PDT. To purchase these tickets, please visit the web-store at http://www.pearljam.com/goods. The pre-sale will end July 28th at 5pm PDT or while supplies last. We expect the tickets to sell out, so please understand that “SOLD OUT” means sold out.

Before you purchase these tickets, please make sure you are able to attend ... Check with your boss to make sure you have the time off, check your bank account to make sure you have the funds necessary for travel expenses, etc. As a rule of thumb, if you purchase, you are expected to attend.

Rules:
* This is NOT an all-ages event. You AND your guest must be 18 years of age to attend. IDs will be checked at the door.
* You must be an active member as of Friday, July 20, 2007.
* All sales are final. No refunds. No exchanges. No transfers. No way!

Instructions:
1) TO PURCHASE, go to http://www.pearljam.com/goods and click on “Chicago Tickets”. Purchasing a quantity of “1” means you are purchasing a PAIR (2) of tickets. No single tickets will be available. Please make sure the billing address is accurate for the credit card you will be using. Visa and MasterCard are the only accepted forms of payment.

2) WAIT ... We will notify you via email with an additional confirmation once the pre-sale has ended. This confirmation will contain more information about how to receive your tickets. You can view the successful ticket order in your Ten Club Profile, by logging into your Ten Club account, click on “PROFILE” – your order history can be viewed in this screen.

3) KEEP WAITING … Ten Club tickets WILL NOT be mailed to you in advance of the show, but must be collected at the box office on the day of the performance. You must be present and show an official form of photo identification to collect the tickets. In lieu of hard tickets, you and your guest will be wristband-ed at the box office, so both parties must be present. Bear with us … this is to help prevent scalping!

Again, please understand we have a limited amount of tickets, but we would like to give every member this wonderful opportunity regardless of location or seniority! Give love!

Questions can be directed to tickets@tenclub.net, or by calling toll free 1-800-724-8038.

Good luck to you all!

This is a private event. No public ticket sale is scheduled.

[smellrose1]

I really, really, really need to find a new line of work!

[Jde-PJ]

goodluck getting tickets serena.

[panthergirl]

thanks jason!!!

i'mgonnaneedit!

[melody chord]

This is incredible!!!!! I can't believe it!!!!

Never thot I'd be lucky enough to attend a fan-club only show. Seems like they always happen on the left coast, so this is a dream come true!

Now if only I can get my paws on those tickets Thursday. I imagine there will be a riduculous rush. I guess I need to close out every program on my slow-ass computer to ensure that it runs as quickly as it can.

Good luck to all the Lolla peeps! Somebody has to get those tickets!

(I WILL DIE...if on my first click to purchase it says "SOLD OUT", 'cause that's what seems to happen to me every time)

[yer ardy]

why......do they......do this.....to me.
good luck to everyone going for tix...


**sigh**

[panthergirl]

i wish everyone one of us could go.
together.
and i hope everyone of us who tries on thursday, gets lucky.

My best friend Hillary lived in the apartment building next to the Vic for two years until she moved to Australia this winter. Her email to me today was just one line... "Why? Why of all places did they have to choose the Vic?" Oh the agony of being so close yet sooooo far! Such a great venue in a cool neighborhood...parking is very hard to find though and I reccomend taking the L for those of you who are going. :) Good luck with tix tomorrow peeps....I'm sending you ticket karma vibes ~~~~~~~~~

Is it normal that my stomach has been in a huge knot since I woke up today?...

And what's the chances that I'll be getting any sleep tonight?

I'm practically sick about getting these tickets :confused::confused::confused:

And since I still have dinosaur dial-up, I'm going to a friend's house to use their cable modem. Kinda hoping to even up the playing field since everyone I'll be competing with has broadband at the very least.

Lotsa luck and good--good-- good--good vibrations, bopbop...

I didn't have any luck at all, even with my friend's cable modem:frown::frown::frown:

The first ten minutes I couldn't even get the stupid page to load...and after that all I've gotten has been 'out of stock' for the last hour and 45 minutes. I've refreshed the page bazillions of times.

I can't believe it was this difficult. I cried all the way home from my friend's house. I'm inconsolable and will proceed to bury my head in the pillow for more bawling!!!!!!!!!!!

[panthergirl]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

i am SO SO SO sorry.

i totally know how you feel.
are you gonna try to go to the vic and give it a shot the day of the show???

you never know...
never say never!!!

Thanks:bigsm:

No way in HELL am I giving up!

I'm still refreshing as we speak:vamp:

Sounds like a lot of people at Synergy that wanted tickets didn't get them. Souls and laptops are now in the process of being bargained there, ha!

My next thought is to send out the word to everyone that knows anyone who might have a single ticket to sell.

But I would need two, so I need to find two people with single tickets.

If all else fails, we'll be l-o-i-t-e-r-i-n-g outside the Vic with our ears against the building :bigsm:

According to folks at Synergy, it isn't over until it says 'sold out' at ten club...right now it just says 'temporarily out of stock'....

KEEP REFRESHING MELODY!!! DON'T GIVE UP!!!!


and a big congratulation's to PGirl!!! :oldman: :silly: Fantastic!

Thanks, broken:bigsm: You know I'll be refreshing until my fingers fall off. I'm the eternal optimist, so this is what I tell myself...

'hey, people's credit cards can be declined'

and...

'sometimes the 10C releases things in bits and chunks' ( I once tried to buy a poster that was 'out of stock' for three days, and then suddenly it was in stock)

and...

my former two-single-ticket idea.

Or I could take my husband's approach.."you're still gonna see them at Lolla" :bigsm:

I'm so happy for you and the hubster, p-girl!!! At least we'll have a representative in the house so we'll have a full report of the action. There's a lot to be said for vicarious living:silly:

[hollie]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.....!!!!!!!!

I'm sure there will be people selling some outside....but if you do buy some from someone outside, make sure to have them go with you up to the entrance to make sure they are real tickets. i just read recently that someone over at synergy got scammed by that.

[reallygroovN]

oh my goodness.

i've been checking, but according to the cubs website, the game is completely sold out (but there may be a chance the day of to get some from the ticket window)...

edit: http://replay.tickets.com/buy/DoublePlay?orgid=22347&agency=CUBM_MYTIXX
those maybe a little pricey, some of them are boxed seats
http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/chc/ticketing/seating.jsp

[panthergirl]

eeeesh..
those are pricey.

i may be able to get them on ebay.
i would so rather have them waiting for me at will call
than have the pressure of getting 5 of them there ( a friend is meeting us)

[merlin]

Have a great time at the shows, and at the game. We will be there in spirit.

we were just looking at that one...
i have to see if i can meet the seller there though to get them -
just sent a message asking - because i don't think there's enough time for shipping ... even overnight would be cutting it soooo close

and 7 hours is a long time, they'll go up considerably.

but i'm a gonna try :bigsm:


wooohooooo!!!
