edited September 2008 in The Porch
Was in the car today listening to the radio when i request for "Rearview Mirror" came on..

The DJ then went onto say how Neil Young is headlining the Big Day Out with Arctic Monkeys.. That is confirmed.

She also mentioned that she heard a little rumour that PEARL JAM may be making their way down to Oz for the tour also. Its just a rumour at this stage though she mentioned!!

Imagine that!!!

Did anyone else hear this???

    Aren't they pretty much rumored for every single large festival in the world every year? It's like clockwork.

    sounds sweet, especially with My Morning Jacket and Neil Young confirmed and KoL rumoured.
    PJ would love a trip to OZ with their fav friends/artists!
    I had it all once I gave it back

    yeah, but i heard months ago almost straight from the horses mouth that there were plans for early in the year, straight away i thought BDO!

    i still hope for their own tour, not a BDO based one, but will not complain if it becomes true :D

    I'm with you v_s!

    Waaaay over BDO's and I really don't know if I want to battle with thousands of teeny boppers, who possibly don't even know any of PJ's songs other than a couple or radio hits :rolleyes: BDO sucks IMO and I don't even think I'd bother :(
    I'd rather them just do a proper tour here WITHOUT BDO :(

    If Pearl Jam are coming down here in January to perform at the Big Day Out it obviously means they're gonna do some more shows .. as in an official tour.

    Well that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. :D

    Im definitely at the Perth BDO....

    Even if I have to contend with 15 year old skanks, atleast i'd see my boys ;)

    Then when they come for their own tour, I can go to that too :D

    this would be awesome already buying tixs to BDO because of Uncle Neil and now this rumour.. crazy. But PJ have been rumoured to play BDO for years now.
    I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

    Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

    I love you forever and forever :)

    I agree with your theory :) I seriously doubt they'd come all the way here just for BDO.

    What are we looking at for tix?

    Do we expect Pearl Jam will play sides?

    What about what happened years ago, when those people got injured? I thought they werent going to play events like that anymore?

    Im so outta the loop :p

    Still there have been rumours on the radio before about PJ performing at BDO. I wish we had something more to go by. :o

    I'm gonna be broke enough already doing the whole Aus tour......maybe I could squeeze Perth BDO into my budget??? I hate BDO, but if you're going, I could just strap myself to your back and you could do your emu run and get us past all the idiots, to the front! :D

    Yeah PJ said no more festivals after the Roksilde thing in 2000 but have obviously changed their mind since they do Lollapalooza now.

    They do other festivals....so yeah, I s'pose BDO isn't out of the question??

    I'd still rather spend my $$ on the actual tour and see them amongst TRUE fans :)
    Same with Uncle Neil....rather spend my money on his own gig.

    LMAO :D:D

    For sure!

    I tend to freak unsuspecting citizens out when I run, and would be more effective if I had a Dwellingite on my back...kinda like Yoda :eek:

    Are you going to do all shows next 'TOUR' tour?

    I can totally see your point, and to be honest when I listened to your reasons I was almost swayed to opt out of the BDO, if indeed they are playing....

    But I just couldnt live with myself knowing that I missed a show, within 250 kms of me :o

    Plus, you could always hope, that we WILL be amongst 'true' fans...the majority of the croud wouldnt know who PJ are and will leave us standing there in our own little crowd ;)

    Didnt realise how my post sounded :D

    You dont look like Yoda, you are merely a wise chicka-dee, wanting to become a backpack :eek:

    It just reminded me of that thread ages ago, saying Caption this Picture, and it was Yoda on the back of Luke :D


    I will be at both Brissie gigs with you all :D

    I just went and had a look at the Big Day Out website and there is no lineup listed for 2009 yet. I suppose we all should just check on there regularly?
