Pearl Jam touring "10"

[t8yman]

it wasnt free fella, it was a fiver. which I think was donated to charity as well. IIRC

[Greeny_Musicchild]

Yeah, me and my mate paid a fiver. Paid £30 or something to join the fanclub to get the cheap tickets though

[ampersand]

listening to ten now thanks to the fail thread

great i usually just listen to newer pearl jam when i do.

[When Jokers Attack]

Could be a good gig anyway. I quite enjoyed Gunz n Rozez the two times I saw them.

[t8yman]

I just listen to pearl jem, they are much better, tour here more often and are cheaper tickets.

[guypjfreak]

I'd rather Soundgarden did. Why can't Pearl Jam find their own drummer?!

[worm]

i reckon soundgarden will tour then breack up again so hands off matts ours now

[rabid]

Anyway does anyone want to buy the two tickets

that'll teach you

[pehaw]

So I've just read t8yman's first post and rang my brother-in-law who plays bass in a Pearl Jam tribute band in Liverpool - telling him to get on t'interweb and get the f**king tickets booked for him and his mates.

Then i scrolled down. Fucckkkkkk!!!

Oh well, give 'em a chance to check out the competition.

I'm not answering my phone tonight.

[metallimuse]

So they'll charge a fiver when it's for charity but Iron Maiden (for example) are £50? FFS!

[rabid]

I'm confused,are you annoyed at Metallica or Maiden?

Metallica could charge so little as it was a big venue and Maiden charge so much as its a small intimate venue (Brixton Academy?) which you normally wouldn't see them in.

[Greeny_Musicchild]

That Maiden price is for the Arena not the Academy. I'm annoyed at so little being charged for a charity event.

[rabid]

It was a fanclub event where all the money went to charity. They could have charged £50 and given none of it to charity like 90% of all big live acts. I don't see the problem.

[ampersand]

Or charged £50 and given it all to charity.

He's saying that it's sad that we'll pay so much for these tickets when they make rich people richer, yet so little when it's for charity.

You can understand when it's a clothes shop selling second hand gear because the goods are of distinctly lower quality than those found on the high street, but when it's a prestigeous ticket that will easily sell out then it raises the question: why charge so little. It's a token gesture if you ask me.

and they also could have done it for free like rage.

or charged £200 and alienated a lot of their fanbase.

there's far bigger things that you could be criticising metallica for. a charity gig definitely isn't one of them.
