From DeLuna Fest's website:
"We have a few more surprises for you this year. Next Tuesday, DeLuna Fest 2012 will release its final lineup announcement, including the third headliner."

So excited..I hope they're nice surprises!

Can't wait! Check out this link if you'd like to join some fellow PJ fans for a party while at the festival. http://www.cometotheporch.net/2012/05/pj-party-at-deluna-fest-click-here-if.html

I'm up for a PJ party. I'll be sending my email...

Hope this brazilian tourist don't get lost LOL

Lots of Brazilians are going to be there it seems! My buddy edibervan and his wife are coming in from Curitiba for the festival as well.

Yep, is easier for us to get to Florida than to get to Montana HAHAHAHA although I thought about it since I'm gonna be in NY...but I gave up $$$

I just got the email. Wow! I won the early entry tickets to the show in Missoula. And it couldn't have come at a better time. I have been through so much over the last ten years. I am 43. I married at 30. We divorced 3 years later. I didn't make enough money and we lost a little girl. She comes from a wealthy family. Money wise. We had a son, Hunter Douglas and then we lost a baby girl Audry Kay. I wanted to go to counseling. All she wanted was another baby asap. So, we soon had my little Belle'. She filed a month after Belle' was born. There was no abuse or adultery. She just had a melt down from loosing Audrey. It is hard, but I have also lost my brother and my father when I was 15. So I know about death and how it can change a person. I hold no ill will towards her. She and her family began what is known as parental alienation. They drug me through courts for 7 or 8 years until I was flat broke. All the while I was building a strong bond with my Belle' and HD. She married a couple of times. Both for money. Married another guy and moved with the kids far away. I tried setting up web cam visitation, sent letters. Only to have them all returned. She never gave them their letters. I had made up my mind to step out of the corrupt legal system in my county in Oklahoma. No more money or circus shows. Last Fall I received a call from her latest attorney telling me the man she married wanted to adopt the kids. I was devastated. I had never missed ONE SINGLE child support check. I paid 1k a month. Which left me eating one meal a day for many years. After some time and thinking. Also spiritual soul searching. I decided to allow the adoption. I knew I was being called some kind of monster to the children on a regular basis. So rather than have them live with that constant onslaught of lies. I let them be adopted by him. I did it b/c I LOVE my little girl and boy. I want them to have a happy childhood like I had, until I was 15 and dad died. I have struggled with many demons over the years. But this one was the knock out punch. I am not sure why I am telling you this other than it is Father's Day this Sat. So you see, winning the tickets on this Father's Day means so much to me. In a way, it is like God showing me I am not alone and that He is taking care of me. He loves me. I do apologize. This is not my style to spill my soul onto the floor for all to see. I just want you to know... This will be the hardest Father's Day yet. But you ALL just made it a little easier. Thank you. I hope the band plays Come Back. I listen to that song everyday. Hoping and praying, when they are older, they will come back home to me. Pearl Jam and all involved - THANK YOU FOR THIS SPECIAL GIFT. Perhaps tonight, I will see my babies in my dreams and have a moment with them once again.
See you all in Missoula.



From the bottom of my heart - THANK YOU ALL.



Much love - Matthew



P.S. This will be my 1st Pearl Jam show.

We just got back from our first Soundgarden gig (@Download festival among Metallica, Sabbath and others) and now we are all fired up for Pensacola! Nothing can ease the wait for it now!
It was very tricky to find us mileage tickets to Pensacola, but we got it... Anyone in Brazil in need of any kind of help just PM and we´ll make it work!

Weird Festival...
it looks like only PJ and FF are out of line here!
Well, ok... never been an indie music fan to attend these numbers, maybe something good will come out!

Adding ZBB which plays both nights of their own festival in Nashville on 9/21 & 9/22, pretty much lands them on Sunday 9/23 to do their headlining and means it's all but certain that PJ goes on Friday night 9/21.

it's been up in the 10C tour section that PJ is playing Friday night

At Jazz Fest they have the first few feet infront of the stage sectioned off for the VIP ticket holders. The general admission ticket holders have the area behind this section VIP area. The Deluna pixs look just like what Jazz fest does.

I don't see how they can regulate who is up front unless it's sectioned off. It's a general admission festival!

Hey Walks on his own, spill away, brother. It sounds like the winning tickets couldn't have gone to a more deserving person...don't get me wrong, I'd have loved to win, but if anyone besides me had to win them, I'm glad it was you. You have been through a whole hell of a lot more than I could ever imagine and you keep your head held high. You are a beautiful soul and it sounds like you did everything in your power to make sure your kids were raised with love, and I truly thank you for that.

MUCH, MUCH LOVE to you!!! Enjoy every second of this beautiful experience to come...

Hey everyone, I don't know if it's been said in the pages back, but does anyone know if they are going to sell single day tickets? I only wanna go Friday night to see Pearl Jam, and than try and hit Atlanta on Saturday. Please let me know if anyone has any information on this. Thanks!

[joannawilson]

I asked DeLuna specifically about single-day, and they said no. I looked back at past years, and they didn't sell single-day then, either.

Hey all, I definitely recommend hitting up Midtown also, the second show of a back to back usually comes with some rarities, even though it's not the same venue Atlanta should have the more interesting set list. I just saw them in Europe and this was the case in Manchester and Am'dam. But who knows with the boys they could rip the library right open for both shows. C u all at Deluna and Midtown!

[rhinomagic]

How about PJ plays a Ten Club show for us Gulf Coasters a couple of days ahead of DeLuna?

No harm in that, is there?

I thought for sure they sold them last year.

Not selling single day tickets has to be the dumbest idea ever
