One month from today will be an epic day at Wrigley for Pearl Jam fans! As a part of that Saturday night show, can you please play Evil Little Goat for the first time ever? Who knows, maybe it will help break the curse of the billy goat!

Here's more on the curse:
The Curse of the Billy Goat is a sports-related curse that was placed on the Chicago Cubs Major League Baseball franchise in 1945 when Billy Goat Tavern owner Billy Sianis was asked to leave game 4 of the World Series against the Detroit Tigers at the Cubs' home ballpark of Wrigley Field because the odor of his pet goat (named Murphy) was bothering other fans. He was outraged and allegedly declared "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more," which has been interpreted to mean that there would never be another World Series game won at Wrigley Field. The Cubs have not won a World Series since 1908 or played in one since 1945.

this city is so filthy, like my mind in ways

    ha ha ha - I like it. Those two would go well together - maybe Evil Little Goat to intro into Leash!

    Knocking off the dust on this request I posted before the 2016 Wrigley show in the hopes that maybe Monday it’ll make it back onto the set list and not get scratched! Let’s celebrate the curse being broken!
