Global Citizen Festival (NYC/2015)

[96583UP]

Anyone else not get the 10C email? ... No unique code for me ...

guess it's either VIP 1 or listening from the tennis courts with a 40 and a black and mild

[LetMeSleep]

Rumor mill says they will be playing Hungerstrike with Beyoncé singing the Cornell part ... while Jay-z drives around the crowd in a mini-Ferrari spraying Moet on people

That sounds amazing.

oh now I'm going to be disappointed. Nothing could live up to that.

VIP doesn't look like a very good view ... 1/2 is gonna be all off to the side ...



... and it's potentially far away from the centre aisle in which Jay-z will be doing this during hungerstrike:

Ugh.... I have to be in NYC on Monday the 28th for work. Is this worth going a few days early?

That was pretty easy, picked up 2 VIP 2 tickets via ten club code

Got mine too!

[CopperTom]

It'd be nice if this was added to the Tour section too.

[epilogue]

I never got no stinking code!

How much is it?

[CopperTom]

Between $0 and $175.

[CopperTom]

My code no longer works, otherwise I would have sent it to you.

I appreciate that, friend. And congrats!

$225 for a VIP3?

for 2015 pearl jam? at a festival? with no new music?

pass.

I got VIP 2 for 150.00. The prices went crazy after 10:01 am.

While the special announcement was lame and they do over use it, it's hard to criticize the band for playing with others - no matter what kind of music they play - to raise funds for a good cause. I don't think they've ever played Central Park, so that's got to be on their bucket list, too, so cool.

Interesting that the ten club email noted that this is the only North American 2015 show....maybe that bodes well for a new record. But probably not.

So another year where my membership dues show no benefit. Though there's always hope of a 10C only 15th anniversary reissue of TB2K, with accompanying "Merch Band 2015" bonus DVD.

If they started putting out albums every two years in return for a few years without any shows I'd be totally down with that. And I'd keep the membership.

Yes, totally agreed. A new music subscription element to the membership could also be pretty great.

I love that idea. How 'bout one new song per month? I'd drop $$$ for that.

Guys I also started an official thread in the Tour subforum if you plan on going you can connect with other RM users.

[lowlight79]

[CopperTom]

The prices changed quickly. We both got em cheap.
