No Italy?

Seems weird.
Was wondering if anyone has heard of extended or added dates?
There's no show in the southern part of Europe (Portugal, Spain, Italy, Switz, Austria, etc).

Yeah but still they can sell out any show in Italy and that is the best place for the PJ shows. I mean I don't mind that they are going to Scandinavia it was a time to come back there but still no Italy is sad thing for EU tour
LIFE WASTED, BLOOD on the PORCH, LAST KISS is a WISHLIST DEEP DOWN NOTHING AS IT SEEMS WHY GO COME BACK ALIVE SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE and SMILE.
well they really trying to avoid "risky" countries. god knows what italy, spain, portugal, greece will be using as their currency in summer. there are serious bets the whole euro idea will not survive over new years eve ... really not surprised seeing them doing SEK, NOK, DKK, GBP next year ...
Yes, the new government called for "blood, sweat and tears", but no one here is queuing nor will queue for bread, right? We have no homeless wandering around like in downtown L.A.
The problem regarding Italy (I know nothing about other countries so I won't talk about them) is that there's only one promoter in contact with PJ and he definitely wants PJ to play at a Festival, i.e. the Heineken Jammin Festival (they already played there in 2010 and had to play in 2007 too but the concert was cancelled due to a terrible storm few hours before going on stage), but the Festival has been moved from early July to early June.
We hope he's gonna change his mind and choose another location (the Arena of Verona would be wonderful and PJ love that place!) instead of wasting time tryin' to move a Festival he doesn't own.
If you want to know the "state" of Italy, ask Springsteen who'll be holding 3 concerts here next summer, or Radiohead holding 4...
Don't let your minds getting f*** up by the dirty manoeuvres of the major economical powers: nothing is as it seems... ;-)
I might be completely wrong, but doesn't big bands/artists get paid up front for doing a show? So the perceived chance of selling all the tickets just increases the amount the bands can ask for beforehand? The exception to this being the absolute biggest acts, like Rihanna who demanded the right to receive 80% of box office ticket receipts over $565,000 for her latest tour.
Jeremy69: No one is saying Italy is a third world country, but you can't deny the problems Italy and many other European countries are facing.
Springsteen and Radiohead (as well as other artists) will be holding concerts in Italy, Spain and Portugal next summer, so why talking about economics?
I've been to Barcelona on holiday last month and I've seen no poverty around...
I'll be going to Amsterdam, Werchter and Berlin for PJ and I'm no rich man, friends of mine will go to 6-7 Springsteen or Radiohead concerts all over Europe, and they're not rich as well...
The point is that PJ don't play stadiums and have little time to tour Europe, besides discussing facts with a stupid Italian promoter
And yes, our economic situation is bad, really bad, and most of us will now probably work til we're about 80, but we still have a solid middle class and no raging poverty around.
Sorry, but this interpretation is quite sad.
Some band called Radiohead is going to play 4 shows in Italy next summer.
Either they are completely out of their mind or they don't share the same money concerns as Pearl Jam.

North Europe tour is awesome. Italy is just a dream of mine and having listened to all the Italian shows on boot makes me wish this could happen.
I'm pretty sure Italy is the band's favorite place to play in Europe, so I was just a little shocked...not even 1 date.
I don't think the economy has anything to do with it, I agree with the Radiohead and Springsteen statement. To be honest, those bands are bigger than PJ and they are putting multiple shows on.
PS: Berlin...July 4th is PJ, 6th and 7th is Radiohead
