Pearl Jam

Lately it seems as though I’ve been getting a lot of stuff for free. I’m incredibly grateful, but it did make me stop and think about karma, and that whole “giving back” thing. There’s a much larger picture for me to think about, but for now, I can do something small.

Back when Pearl Jam tickets went on sale, I used my Ten Club membership to get mine. The caveat to that was that you had to buy in pairs, no single tickets allowed. At the time I figured no big, I’ll just sell the spare and I’ll be good to go. Instead I’ve decided to give the spares away.

The nitty gritty:

* There are three tickets up for grabs. One for Montreal on Wednesday September 7th, one for Toronto on Sunday September 11th, and one for Ottawa on Wednesday September 14th.
* Ten Club tickets had, amongst others, the following conditions: they must be picked up on the day of the event, they can only be picked up by the ticket holder, and you will not know where you are seated until you get your tickets. That means two things. 1) You’ll need to meet up with me at the venue before the show so I can give you your ticket, and 2) you’ll have to spend the show sitting next to me, in an as yet undetermined spot in the arena.
* I’m going to use a random number generator to choose who gets each ticket. I’ll be doing that on Friday afternoon. That’s Friday, August 26.
* If you’re interested, either tweet me or leave a comment below and I’ll add you to the list.

I wanted to let anyone who was interested have a chance to get a ticket and figured this was the easiest way. I couldn’t come up with a less douchey way than this blog post of making sure all the info was in one place. This isn’t a ploy to get people to read my blog; that would be pointless seeing as how I haven’t blogged in over a year. I just feel like I get a lot of random good fortune and this was an easy way for to spread a little of that around.

I don’t know if this sort of thing is supposed to have fine print, but the basics are above.

Good luck!

And the tickets go to…

Toronto: @elle_dee
Montreal: @bloons

Congrats folks, and sorry to those who missed out. Thanks to everyone for entering and/or helping me spread the word. It was a bit of fun, and nice to be able to do something small for a few other people.
