    Speaking on behalf of those who did Saskatoon, Winnipeg and Thunder Bay, that's a tough stretch. I have no idea how the crew managed to pull it off :o I think they will skip Sask and take their time getting to either Edm or Calg out of respect for their crew knowing how difficult it must have been last time.

    That said, first row center seats, getting Mike's t-shirt and an autographed towel from Ed in Saskatoon will never be matched again. My favourite setlist of the ten shows I've seen ;)

    montreal is probably sept 15 ( based on what was written in the newspaper)

    film festival is sept 8-18, so I would guess that toronto is sept 17/18 with pj20 being shown on sept 16

    Where was September 15th mentioned in the paper? They played Montreal on September 15, 2005. It may have been an old article.

    Ok here is some food for thought.

    Toronto Film Festival is in September.
    Cameron Crowe`s Pearl Jam 20 is due out in September
    Pearl Jam is playing Toronto in September

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say PJ will play Toronto during TIFF so they can go to the gala premier of Cameron Crowe's movie. Thoughts??

    That would be awesome. And just imagine, PJ20 might happen, in Toronto, all taking place that week?

    Just imagine. :think:

    that sentence is about 2005 Canadian Tour:

    "Il s’agirait du premier spectacle de Pearl Jam à Montréal depuis son dernier passage au Centre Bell le 15 septembre 2005..."

    "It would be the first Pearl Jam show in Montreal since their last gig at Centre Bell on September 15, 2005..."

    ;)

    We drove up to Montreal from Boston on Saturday for my buddy's bachelor party. I would love to start planning a return trip for September.

    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.

    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.

    Agreed, Sloan seems to be a Canadian's rite of passage.

    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.
