Concert announcement for Edmonton tomorrow is definitely The Hip...
I think we are still a couple of weeks away from an announcement. I remember that the '05 tour that was also in September was announced in May and at that time that seemed like a very early announcement... Mid May perhaps?

The 05 Canadian tour was announced in Mid April, not may.
Tickets went on sale for the CA tour april 26th, 2005.
Tempers are wearing thin. Let's hope some robot doesn't kill everybody.

We didn't know about any of the Canadian show's or when ticket's went on sale that time. Just day's before they were playing the Canadian Nation Anthem on their main page. 12am midnight PST 10club on April 26th 2005, they posted the show dates & the 10club ticket's went on sale right @ that same moment. I just woke that morning, 7am Halifax time, on April 26th with dozens of emails & happiness delight that they were playing Halifax & I could buy the 10club tickets right now. It was very shocking they didn't give us any heads up when 10club tickets would go on sale. If they would of done this today, especially for East Coast USA show's, it would be a scene like no other.
They had been playing the Canadian Nation Anthem on their main page for at least a week before hand, and most dates had been leaked by the time the tickets went on sale, so it wasn't much of a surprise.
Point being......it wasn't May.

I didn't know about a Halifax leak. That the shit out of me.

Atleast one 20th anniversary show got announced
Sloan is playing The Starlite Room (Edmonton) on May 31st to celebrate their 20th anniversary. Tickets on sale Friday.
Adolescence in essence is all about trust.
Leaving is for the answering machine.
really hoping that there's an east coast gig(s) this year! i'm skipping U2 in moncton on this hope !!!
Agreed, Sloan seems to be a Canadian's rite of passage.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

I stand corrected. Also, I don't recall most of the dates being leaked by the time the announcment was made. I specifically recall being shocked at the Kitchener, London and Hamilton shows.

I have a ton of connections in Thunder Bay (My Hometown) and had no idea of that show. How PJ pulled that off I have no idea :shock:
I remember when they announced the concert and ticket on sale date/time, there was one guy who literally set up a tent and Hibachi grill so he could guarantee himself a ticket and be first in line
For a city with a population of 115 000 that was a concert nobody ever expected to see roll through town, especially when the biggest show before that, some would argue was Kim Mitchell :?
Thanks again PJ for rocking out the Gardens

Oddly enough, Thunder Bay's one of the few cities I'd heard mentioned before the tour announcement. This was posted here:
"I think that this Canadian tour thing just might happen, and it may be more cities than we would expect. Our little 3000 seat arena in Thunder Bay, ON was contacted by Pearl Jam management. They wanted to know about the capacity and availability of the arena. Unfortunately, I couldn't squeeze any dates out of my source, as he knows that I'll be on here right away."
I almost had a heart attack when I read that (I'm from Thunder Bay, too), then wrote a blog entry about it that concluded, "Pearl Jam in Thunder Bay. The mind boggles." Never in a million years thought it would come to fruition; that's still the greatest night in my life as a music fan, and it wasn't even the best Pearl Jam concert I saw that weekend!

yeah, I remember just before the Tool announcement came, Wheeler mentioned something about a concert announcement the following day, and said "get your screwdrivers ready". Real subtle.
I FUCKING HOPE WINNIPEG GETS ANNOUNCED. I don't give a shit about the Jets/Coyotes/Thrashers. Gimme some PJ!!!

Apparently the last Vancouver show was off-the-wall. The band seemed to have a great time, the crowd was loud and the set list was awesome. I wasn't there though.

yes, the show was a great one. vancouver always is for pj, packed to the rafters.it sold out in 4 or 5 minutes, then they released behind the stage. if you've ever listened to the 05 boot, ed said at first encore "from where we're standing, not only do you look good, but you're fucken loud as hell!" it was awesome. so, it's a must to attend :shock:

Fuck that!
PJ announced on Monday and the Jets return announced on Friday. Great week ahead from start to finish...
Aren't radio stations usually the last to know? I'm guessing we'd here something about fan club tix before the radio announces it?
No kidding. I guess every concert announcement is going to be pj. Lol
I heard a rumour about September a few months ago. Let's hope this goes through. I may be taking a few days off work this fall.
