They wrote that maybe the 6th of july they will play in Udine. They also wrote about an insistent rumor about a new date: the 7th of July in Locarno... do anybody know something about that? I'm really interested because i'm a journalist :-) and I live near Locarno. If it's true it'a a huge news...

in italy every media tells us that on 6th there will be pj in udine so i think it is near the truth
for a second gig in locarno i can't say the same thing but hope there will be it cause i prefer to go there instead of udine

I think Locarno will be a great place, Piazza Grande is small but not to small.

g'day mate

Locarno would indeed be great after all it's just around 3h from Zurich. Would be a nice trip to the sunny south

cheers

Udine seems to be a big maybe. Most of the press that talks about it mentions the press release from the Polish Universal as the source. Those who actually bothered to do some research got nothing in the sense that nothing has been really decided yet and is more likely that they'll do the Heineken Jammin' Festival if it's going to take place this year (last year it didn't).

La storica band di Seattle potrebbe suonare in Piazza Grande il prossimo 8 di luglio. La Good News però per ora non conferma

L'8 di luglio i Pearl Jam potrebbero esibirsi in un'imperdibile data ticinese in Piazza Grande. La storica band di Seattle potrebbe infatti suonare per la prima volta in Ticino nell'ambito di Moon&Stars, manifestazione che dal 2004 anni porta a Locarno i più grandi nomi della scena rock e pop mondiale.

La settima edizione di Moon& Stars avrà luogo dall’8 al 18 luglio. La Good News di André Béchir, il promotore di eventi e concerti zurighese che organizza il festival internazionale locarnese, lo scorso mese di dicembre ha infatti siglato un accordo con il sindaco di Locarno Carla Speziali per riproporre la manifestazione per cinque nuove edizioni.

Il concerto locarnese è stato anticipato dall'etichetta discografica della band, la Universal, sul suo sito polacco. I Pearl Jam, secondo queste indiscrezioni, saranno inoltre impegnati nelle seguenti tappe: 1°luglio all’Heineken Opener Festival di Godynia in Polonia, il 3 al Main Square Festival di Arras in Francia, il 4 al RockWerchter Festival di Werchter in Belgio, il 6 allo Stadio Friuli di Udine, il 9 a Bilbao in Spagna al BBK Live Festival e il 10 all’Alive Festival di Lisbona in Portogallo.

Se nel web - sui siti musicali italiani e sui blog di fans dei Pearl Jam - c'è grande fermento, dalla Good News però per ora non arriva nessuna ufficialità. "Non possiamo confermare questa notizia", ci dicono stamane da Zurigo. "Possiamo però dire che il programma sarà reso noto in una conferenza stampa che si terrà a fine febbraio. E che quest'estate Moon&Stars durerà circa 10 giorni e avrà fino ad un massimo di 10 concerti".

Ma quello che sembra certo è che se la band americana potrà davvero festeggiare proprio a Locarno i suoi primi vent’anni di carriera, culminati con l’ultimo album “Back Spacer”, in Piazza Grande s'annuncia già sin d'ora il pienone.

Unfortunately i can't read Italian properly... but it's just rumours... would be fantastic, Pearl Jam in Locarno ...... The venue is somehow similar to the concert in Pistoia 2006

as i said before.... this venue is a must for a band like Pearl Jam!!One of the rare special places in Switzerland for concerts.

but I think is not realistic.... 8.7 Locarno, 9.7 Spain & 10.7 Portugal.... would be a bit of a rush...

Hell of a rush, and thats why I dont think they will play Glastonbury either. Dublin 22.6, Belfast 23.6, Hard Rock 25.6, Glastonbury 26.6 and Nijmegen 27.6.

Stone Gossard promises a special show, "where you will think of what happened in his time"
This year, Pearl Jam, celebrating its 20th anniversary. In this context, GAFFA Pearl Jam expert Henrik Tuxen - author of "The Pearl Jam Footsteps" - made a marathon interview with guitarist Stone Gossard. Here speaks Gossard and Tuxen among others, on an upcoming concert in Denmark, and Tuxen pose the following questions:

There was great speculation in Denmark, since I announced your tour schedule for summer 2010. There was a hole in the calendar on 1 July, Roskilde Festival starts, but it is so filled now with a concert in Poland. So I come not to Roskilde?

- No, we do not. We looked at various options, we had to tour. We do not want to tour more than three weeks longer, we will not be away from our families and normal lives. We looked at places we had not been long. We need to Ireland where we have not played in many years, and we must play in Belfast for the first time. We're going to Scotland for the first time in a long time. It was the dates that gave the most money, and it was what could best be done. We should also pay bills at home. But we come back to Denmark again, and it will be a special show again, I am sure where you want to think about what happened in his time.

They won't play 3 days in a row in 3 different countries. That's for sure. So july 8th does not make sense.

You are talking about Heineken Jammin' Festival but the only avaliable dates for the band are 6 and 7. A tuesday and a wednesday. I've never seen a festival like that with dates on those days. They usually run from thursday to sunday or less.

I'm hoping someone can give me some tips on where is best/cheapest to stay in Berlin for the show. Which is the nearest airport to the venue?
