There are way to many rumors of shows for the announcement not to be tour dates. I really dont think the ed solo shows are going to be PJ shows. If Eddie didnt have a solo album out I may think differently, but he does and is going to play songs off it.
To be honest, I'm actually looking forward to Ed on stage singing campfire songs and whatnot. Don't get me wrong, I'd love if the band was with him, but I certainly won't be disappointed with just Ed!
I doubt they will annouce the band will be with Ed, I have tickets to Vancouver... but I just don't see that happening.
That would be the most dishonest and deceiving move ever if you ask me, and I would be one of those people at those shows, I wouldn't complain but I have friends that didn't try for tickets because they rather save their money to see the whole band...
I definately dont see this happening... the tickets have Eddie Vedder printed on them, it would be like Radiohead announcing shows and the coming out and saying AHA! Fooled ya its only Tom Yorke solo :S, is that even legal? Wouldn't that be like misadvertising?
I don't know, like I said I have tickets to Vancouver so there is no sour grapes here, I just think that this is a 1,000,000 to 1 chance of this being the announcement, IMHO

You may be right, but seriously, the entire ITW catalog is maybe 60 minutes worth of material (and that's if he extends every song to twice it's normal length). Ed certainly has lots of other stuff that would fit into a solo acoustic gig, but I am still curious about the "april fools' part of it.

I think it was just a name for the tour they came up with. But I could be wrong.

5/23/2011- An utter embarrassment... ticketing failures too many to list.
I certainly thing any of us with EV tickets would be setting ourselves up for a huge disappointment if we put too much stock in these theories...it would be awesome, but sadly I don't see it happening - that said, there is something to "April Fools" and I am thinking maybe it simply means "solo" involves some friends...isn't the point of an April Fools joke to make the joke on April 1st? Maybe that means a Seattle show on the first with some friends along to give us a taste of what to expect. Seattle show could be "Vic'ish" in the manner in which tix are distributed to members. Maybe that is the tweet?
That would be the dumbest thing ever. They announce an Eddie solo tour and then suddenly change it to a PJ tour?
The Ten Club wouldn't hear the end of that.
It has to be a tour.
Why would that be dumb? Considering the mess that the Vic tix buying process was, I think it is possible. But, to calm the masses, they would have to announce other US PJ dates....

I think that April Fool's part of the whole thing is a Seattle show on April 1st...
I think they will annouce it with enough time only for the locals to make it, I think that even if they announced the show the same morning of the 1st, like at the Showbox or similar size it would absolultey sell out by that same night, and that way it will truly be a local show, that's just a guess though but you can't surprise people with an April Fool's Joke on March 19th, it makes no sense.

Cause I guarantee a SHITLOAD more people would be trying to get those TIX if it was PJ rather than Eddie solo. Why would the Ten Club fuck with the fans like that? That's no way to treat a fan club.

That's exactly my point. If PJ wanted to play small shows, this would be a great way to do it-- avoiding all of the chaos that ensued when they announced the Vic. Sure, people would be pissed, but so be it. They would calm down if they were also given a bunch of PJ dates along with this news.

If you wouldn't try and get tix for solo Ed but would only if it was the band, then you don't deserve a seat to begin with. Perhaps this is the reason that Ed was the only "solo act" from the band to be dealt with by the 10c. Because maybe it's not...
you started an entirely new thread to say you agree with the postings in another thread. that's laugh out loud hilarious. i'm gonna take a page from your playbook. first i shall start a new thread saying that i concur with your thoughts on this thread. then i will start a new thread explaining how pointless these threads are and finally to top it off the third thread will be to concur with my thoughts on pointless threads. you all should follow suit.
if you think what I believe is stupid, bizarre, ridiculous or outrageous.....it's ok, I think I had a brain tumor when I wrote that.

I don't think they would spoil an April Fools suprise on March 19th.... I do agree that those who didn't try or want to see Ed solo don't deserve to complain if it was going to be PJ shows... I am going to the shows and I will be happy either way.. I think that's the point.. True PJ fans should be rewarded for wanting to see EV so bad... It probably will just be Ed and some insane special guests, but I think it would be pretty funny..hence April Fools..it they were to be PJ shows..

and what about people who tried and had holds for hundreds or thousands of dollars put on their bank or credit card accounts, and didn't get tickets.... should they be able to bitch and complain????

They already did complain.... They got their money back.. It wasn't done on purpose.. As far as getting tickets, it's luck like always..

No they can't either. They tried and lost. Some tried and won. I don't get what you're saying. Would they have tried harder had it been PJ from the start or would they somehow managed to get seats if it were PJ from the starts? What you are saying is a completely separate issue.

I agree completely.. Also, what people seem to forget is.. these are very small venues.. it wasn't like a regular presale.. There were more people that didn't get tickets than did.. I think those of us who tried the hardest to get tickets to see EV solo are going to be rewarded.. I have spent the last month trading tickets and working with people all over the country and the world so I could see the last five shows... It hasn't been easy.. but I know it will pay off..

At least an ACL show, EV East Coast dates, and Avocado b-sides has some rhyme and reason.
I hope another announcement is coming though.
