What's Next - After the 2014 US Tour
I have heard thru numerous friends and individuals that are close to the band that we might not see Pearl Jam for a long while after this 2014 US tour. Numerous band members want a long extended breaks with family and there is no willingness to go back into the studio and record anytime soon. I hate to say it but DENVER might be the last of Pearl Jam "LIVE" for many years to come. I will attend Lincoln NE and "SHOW #50" in Denver CO both GA floor this tour and can't wait. I expect epic shows both nights.

It's part of them and they made the commitment to take it where the universe calls it.

I would expect a few years of small summer tours (like a handful of dates and some festivals). I know the guys aren't all about the money, but they have been making more dough that most of us for a few decades now. You have to earn to keep up that standard of living. It's not like the old days where they would do 3 legs and take a few years off. The tours are pretty small now, and it seems they do a handful of shows every year just to keep some income coming in.
So that's why I expect. PJ's like any of us. They've gotten used to their standard of living and need to pay the bills If tours are small then they probably can't take full years off.
