i was not thrilled (to say the least) when this rumour reared its ugly head last year, but then it ended up not happening. hoping it falls thru again this year, but it seems to have a lot more validity now than it did last year. *sigh*

i guess we'll see what actually happens when dates come out.

i was going to say the same thing it was brought up last year and never came to fruition and do not feel it will happen being the pirates come back to town that monday so who knows. Normally even when the stones came through years ago they did it when they first left and had a whole week for set up and break down same with bruce..... Just a though

[McIsaacMC15]

if this is seriously at heinz or pnc they it would be completely stupid... Star Lake is one of the best venues out there and after the shows he played there last yr i cant see them going to a frickin stadium and only 1 night... that would be even more bullshit... i just hope none of this is true and we all get the 2 nights at star lake like usual and how it should be... im not lookin to spend 90 bucks on a ticket and be in nosebleed sections... sorry to every11 that likes the ideas of pnc or heinz but i think it would ruin the DMB experience... one night and at a stadium would be complete hell

[McIsaacMC15]

as a matter of fact im so pissed right now im gonna light up a J and just start drinking now bc this is such bullshit

i almost did too, but then i realized i didn't even read it cause there was nothing grammatically correct about either of his posts. it was an eyesore to read from the first few words.

I'm sure they enjoyed playing in an open parking lot next to Three Rivers.

It's going to be at PNC park. It's not a bad place for a concert at all. I'm all for a change of venue. Hell I've been going to starlake since 02. Down to one night sucks, but that weekend is opened since the buccos are out of town.

What she said. I hope this is a rumor. I just have waaaay too much fun at Starlake! But look on the bright side girlfriend - if it is at PNC Park / Heinz field - it's a party at my house!

[dmbmuskie]

I'm definitely not making the trip back home for a show at PNC.

[Deadman23]

I really hope they play at starlake this year for the usual 2 nights. I went for a Jimmy Buffet concert at PNC a few years back and it was horrible. That stadium just isn't a good place for concerts with a stage. The only reason id be happy if they do it at PNC is if they go for 2 nights.

[pantalanagatuba]

a show at pnc would be great for the city. i was at the three rivers stadium concert jul. 3 2000 (the last show at three rivers before it was torn down), and it was a fantastic show, probably still in my top 4 or 5 shows i've been to since 98. pnc will be much better than heinz for a rock concert, and imagine the backdrop at such a beautiful stadium! people will complain no matter what happens. so let's just enjoy whatever happens, especially since starlake got one of the best, if not the best, shows of 09. i'm sure they'll put on a great show. anything is better than when they skipped pittsburgh altogether in 2001.

As much as driving out to Star Lake annoys me, I really am not thrilled with a Heinz Field OR PNC rumor.

I will admit the 3 Rivers show was great. But, I saw Jimmy Buffett a few years back at PNC and it was the worst. show. ever. (comments regarding the artist aside - I enjoy some Jimmy once in a while). The sound sucked so bad, I left early. To compare, I was very close floor for 3 Rivers. I was like last row of the 100 level seats for Jimmy. Unless you're close, the sound / stage set up stinks when it comes to ball parks and stadiums - in my opinion.

I did look at the SpringHill Suites to look @ room rates for the day (to speculate on any truth behind the rumor. Higher rates = something is going on) and there are no rooms available on July 10. VERY odd given there are no sporting events on the North Shore that day. Maybe there is something to this .....

Well said.

Playing at PNC or Heinz would be ludicrous. Let's hope that these rumors are false.

Post Gazette isn't the best place to see a show due to getting there and in/out of the parking lots BUT I would much rather do 2 nights at PG than 1 night at PNC Park or Heinz Field. HF is waaaayyyy too big and I heard the sound isn't that good there. I saw the Stones at PNC Park and it wasn't that bad, but still it is huge.

I never had trouble getting out of there, but I always parked across the bridge. I'd be on the other side of the tunnel within 5 minutes of getting in my car.

If the table games are in the casino by July 10th.. I might not even make it into the show.
