    San Dieguito Performing Arts Center- Encinitas, CA

    Not that this would ever happen but it's the house that Ed built and I am an alum of the High School so it would be very special for me to see him play here.

    La Paloma Theater (also in Encinitas) where Ed lived and across from several killer surf spots

    Lastly, the Casbah in San Diego...no decent images but a lot of you may know what this place means to Ed and any San Diegan who loves music.

    I have no idea if EV is going to do another solo tour, but why not give EV and his management some ideas of the next place to play?! If we save them some legwork, maybe they'll consider some venues and locations that they would normally not consider.


    Post the following info for your suggestion:

    -Venue name and location
    -Capacity of venue (you can usually google that info)
    -Website link
    -Photo of inside of venue



    My recommendations:

    Carpenter Theatre
    Richmond, VA
    Capacity: 1,800
    http://www.richmondcenterstage.com
    carpenter-theatre-inside.jpg


    Byrd Theatre
    Richmond, VA
    Capacity: 1,500
    http://www.byrdtheatre.com
    *note: this is actually a movie theater, but hosts rare concerts, and has a working retractable organ that is played before movies on weekends

    The National
    Richmond, VA
    Capacity: 1,500
    http://www.thenationalva.com
    national_theater.jpg


    *Note: Richmond is conveniently located 90 minutes south of DC, 90 minutes west of Virginia Beach and 70 minutes east of Charlottesville, so selling out relatively quickly would not be much of an issue. :)

    +1 These are the three I would pick.
    I am the artist formally known as "Cameron4President"....

    The Fabulous Fox Theater in St. Louis, Missouri
    Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire?

    I'll not lose my faith, it's an inside job today

    How PJ/Ed has not played "The Pearl at The Palms" in Vegas is beyond me. If theres a building with at least half your name on it, you gotta play it. Holds around 2000.

    I live in Columbus, Ohio and so far Ed hasn't come closer than Chicago (6 hours) or Nashville (6 Hours). So, I dont care if he comes to Cleveland, Cinci, Pittsburgh, Indinapolis or what, but it would be awesome if he played a show for us in this region. Here are some local spots in Columbus that seems to fit in with some of the places he has played...

    Ohio Theatre (capacity 2,791)

    Pearl Jam played here 11/18/91 with the Smashing Pumpkins

    Newport Music Hall
    http://www.promowestlive.com/ (capacity approx. 1,700)
    newport-music-hall-columbus-oh--large-msg-122733734583.jpg
    Pearl Jam played here 03/31/1992. Claims to be "America's Longest Continually Running Rock Club". Ed inncorectly mentioned this show at the 2010 Columbus show saying it was their first Columbus show, probably because PJ.com does not list the 1991 show.
    words seem so out of place.

    Any of these would be a dream come true! I can't imagine what it would be like to have Ed play your hometown....but I think I would be willing to give it a try.

    Plus, we have some great water to paddle! The great James River:
