Rolling Stone implying there will be extra dates...

edited July 2009 in The Porch
....The new dates kick in one day after Backspacer’s release with a pair of hometown shows at Seattle’s Key Arena. Seattle previously had a taste of their band’s new album when the city’s Showbox was the host of a commercial featuring Pearl Jam playing “The Fixer” among other new tracks. From there, Pearl Jam head south for a four-concert residency at Los Angeles’ Gibson Amphitheatre — with a quick detour at the Austin City Limits Festival — before heading to San Diego on October 9th.

After that, there’s a 19-day gap until the band’s next two shows in Philadelphia, so keep an eye out as Pearl Jam will likely add more cities to their trek. The band also promises to play New Zealand and Australia in November 2009 (One wonders if the awesome surfing there have weighed at all on Eddie Vedder’s decision to venture into the Southern Hemisphere.)....

    The missing three weeks is exactly why people need to chill. There has to be some shows added during this gap. It would make no sense if there wasn't.

    Yeah. But what about this from the email the 10C sent.

    At this time, there are no more North American dates to be added to the current tour. However, keep your eyes on the horizon ... Australia and New Zealand are next. Details to come soon.

    Lets say you live in Mass, and you want to see PJ, and buy tickets to Philly because PJ is saying no other dates... and then they add a show in Mass... well, you've just sent a lot of needless carbon monoxide into the air, and spent a lot of money on airplanes and/or car-gas and more money on hotels.

    So, it would be nice to know where the tour is going, before hundreds of thousands of dollars is spent by their fanbase, that may be needless.

    Um, that's how tours work. They hold back dates to see how the first dates sell. Especially smart in this economy.

    I guess I just don't give a shit about that. If there isn't a show near me, I don't go. I don't travel long distances for any band, even my favorites. I don't understand how people drop thousands to follow a band around. Sorry to hear the bands current way of announcing tours doesn't work out for you, but I can't say I feel any real empathy for this perspective.

    Rolling Stone has been dead on with all the news they have announced regarding PJ. I wouldn't doubt this for a second. The fan club wants these shows to sell out quickly hence why they only announce a few dates at a time. They say there won't be any more dates so that people will think this is the only chance to see the band. I bought into this when I purchase tix to Chicago. I live in MA and thought that would be my only shot. If I keep my hopes up, before Philly I might get to see them in NYC or Boston.

    i don't see nyc or boston getting any shows though it would be easy, easy money for the band. if any dates get added, i'd expect them to be midwest dates, but who knows.
    i have a paper here that entitles me to fast track status

    Ummmm, no that's how "Pearl Jam" Tours work, every other band that I can think of doesn't do it like that and I've been to about 500-600 concerts in my life, every band that I can think of doesn't do it like that. So to say "that's how tours work" unless you are ONLY talking about Pearl Jam I don't know how that statement makes ANY sense.

    If that's how they like to do it (announce tours) now then fine, but please do not make it seem like it's a common practice in the music industry with other bands, because it simply is not.

    I don't live in Mass - and I'm sorry you feel no empathy for those who are in this position.

    At some point everyone, even you, there is a distance where it's just close enough that you want to go to, and just far enough that you have to think it thru. And after you think it thru, you say "It's close enough, I have to go" and you buy tickets. Then, if they announce a show 1/10th of the distance, you're saying you wouldn't mind that you're driving that far for the other show, and are going to miss the show next door, just because they chose to announce it this way?

    At this time, there are no more North American dates to be added to the current tour. However, keep your eyes on the horizon ... Australia and New Zealand are next. Details to come soon.

    I agree. While 10C hasn't always given us all the info as soon as we'd like, I don't think they would explicitly announce this just to get us to buy tix to the shows that have been announced.

    I think they said that so that we don't have to have discussions like this.

    well i live in Mass and i say fuck it...i'm going to Philly and if they come to Boston i'm going to those too...and it doesn't matter if they announced them all together, it wouldn't change a thing...if you can't swing a show then you don't go..that's just how it is...fuck..i wish i could afford to go see them in Europe! but i can't! so i am content with what i have and not bitching about what i want.

    We are all really happy that you have seen so many concerts. I don't understand how that would make you an expert on how tours work, but thanks for letting us know.

    To correct you, many bands do a similiar thing where they release dates and hold back shows to see how they sell. I hope that isn't too hard for you to understand since you said you "don't know how that statement makes ANY sense." Many bands do it, it's a fact. You see what the market is for your ticket and if they sell out then you add more shows, especially in a poor economy. It looks better PR-wise as well because you don't want the press to pick up on "Pearl Jam sales are low for all these dates" then that hurts things as well. It's just smart business, but you already know that because you went to 500 or 600 concerts, can't remember which.

    Those potential dates mentioned are probably roll over dates for Philly and San Diego. Possibly a third Seattle show, I gotta believe demand will be pretty high for Seattle.

    10C announcement also said this:

    In other words, no additional cities will be added. Additional dates, as rollovers, to already listed cities is likely.

    The board said West Coast dates. So thats what it is. Of course there will be more dates. Santa Barbara, Maybe Santa Cruz, Frisco or Mountain View, Portland. Thats the west coast people. Maybe Red Rocks. But then ya gotta fly. If they stay on the coast they can bus the whole thing. Vegas maybe. Why not? The Coast usually implies something with an Ocean nearby.....So plan on that.
