Oh this is during school holidays and I'll be off for 2 weeks. Guilt wiped. Woo.

Oh, you're right, it is - hmm.

I probably still won't go, I'm not that interested in the film, though I'm looking forward to the soundtrack.

Sorry 'sleep. I can't seem to get that bug in the old teleporter fixed. Looks like you're on your own there.

I'm actually quite looking forward to this. I love a good Gold Class experience. I've only ever been twice, so it's a rare thing.

Having said that we just finished basketball season and as a coaches gift the parent's of one of my teams gave me a double voucher to Gold Class as well, so looks like I'll be living the high life a few times in the next couple of weeks!

A review! (from someone who was pretty close to the action it seems...)

Firstly, it's important to clarify from the start, if you're walking into this with the expectation that this will be a film showcasing the band's performance, you'll be disappointed.

The same if you're expecting this to be a documentary about the band and where they're at in their career. If you want those, please refer back to Live At The Garden and PJ20.

Instead, what's offered is a film about frontman Eddie Vedder and his lifelong relationship with his beloved Cubs, an obsession that began as a four-year-old attending games with his uncle.

OK, I am never going to watch this.

yeah, that does sound pretty unappealing.

WTF? I was going to see this with friends maybe but No WAY am I doing that now. I hoped it would be MOSTLY concert clips

it's like the most self indulgent thing i've ever heard of.

I heard there may be boobs in it.

a film about a famous singer watching baseball. sounds like some failed shia lebouf art experiment.

Half arsed telephone 'Interview' with grinder.com "We all bring songs to the table until the final mix when Brendan/ Laura Dern/ Sean Penn swiftly announce that our leader thinks we're not on point. Were then legally instructed to announce one by one and in different business speak to Classic Rock magazine that it's a democracy and we should all be grateful such a talent took the wheel back in the day because we're now playing Wrigley Field and Danny Clinch is filming.It's every boys dream"

God bless the Cubs, Padres, Mariners. It's about your hometown de jour.

It's almost Foo Fighters, but Dave has a sense of humour and his band mates aren't Cucks.

I've ordered Gold Class and actually can't wait to see Stone and Jeff's complete disdain through awkward body language.

Funny thing is, I still bloody love them all, including the goatee, and except Boom.
