pearljamdude420

even the canada shows as time goes on they get less look at montreal

98 then 2 years 2000, then 3 years 2003, then 3 years 2006, then 5 years 2011. now what pj wont come back to canada to montreal until 2017 if they keep fading a year every 4 or 5 years?

It was posted when Wrigley was announced Fall Tour dates would be announced later on. Its just a matter of when they get announced. There are rumors of them Playing Voodoo Fest in New Orleans at end of October, and a Dallas show around that time too.

I got you brother, but the "!" after the stay tuned post leads me to believe a plan is starting to come together

And a post on the X band site seems to indicate they will be opening some PJ shows in September, so its only a matter of time now

Call me weird but I kinda prefer that they play less these days.
They are all in their 40's and have families and like the Euro Tour of 2012 I would prefer that they did 10-15 shows and were on fire each night playing for 2+ hours than go back to 30/40/50 date tours and get burnt out.

if i was in their position I would do the same.

I'd rather see one/two incredible shows than go to five or six on a tour that are really good but not explosive, if you know what I mean.

you're weird


with less shows that means less chances to win the f'n lottery

A widespread Canadian tour might not happen this year since it did just happen in 2011, but I do think we will see a wider spread than usual tour of the US. And that will probably include a few Canadian dates. Toronto and Vancouver, hopefully Montreal.

More Vancouver shows please!!!

If you are talking about Wrigley field then that was a simple demand beat supply.

I wanted to go to 4 shows in Europe, I entered the lottery and got tickets for those gigs. I want to to go to both Ev solo shows, I got tickets for those. When a full tour is announced it will be easier to get tickets as people will pick shows nearer to them rather than than THE ENTIRE WORLD wanting to see one show at Wrigley.

The lottery works, if you don't get tickets then you go general sale.
It worked in Europe and I don't think there were that many people who wanted to get into a gig who couldn't.

There is a flaw in your reasoning, after the original site for Europe crashed, Tim or Kelly said that the supply and demand in Europe was almost equal. Yes Wrigley is different, same as PJ20 was. But it will not be the case in the US. Especially in the Northeast.

And a full PJ tour is still small as compared to most other groups.

My comparision is with a Euro tour against a US tour. Past two years there has only been Alpine, a couple of festival gigs/larger gigs and Wrigley and London forthcoming. Once the US tour occurs then we can see how that pans out. But the demand is huge in the US currently as there hasn't be a "full tour" for a while. I think/hope the Autumn dates will calm this down a bit.

if we are talking Crowd surge then that was the worst few days. I live and work in central London and I called them up offering to go to their offices with cash to buy tickets.
After the stress we went through with that I am thankful for the lottery. You apply and sit back, if you don't "win" then you have to sit in a queue on ticketmaster.

Additionally no matter what 10c do, someone will be upset and will cry about it on the internet.

I followed your comparison and I wanted to point out, even with the crowd surge fiasco, it was noted the supply and demand in Europe was almost equal for 10c tickets, kind of why they were upset the system failed. So even with a "lottery" your chances of scoring tickets was very good. Even when PJ tours the US, demand is still huge in certain areas of the US, regardless of how long they have been off. I think it will be even worse now. And there will still be people traveling to shows from outside of the area where the tour is.

there won't be a full cross canada tour (a la 2005) until PJ40 I'm guessing. Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. The usual.

I might have to travel this fall. They ain't comin' to the Peg in 2013, I'm damn sure of that!

"a real usa canada tour"

Last time I saw the two countries on the map they look quite a bit larger than your regional tour request.

...and I'll be one of them hopefully going to the East Coast as there is no Euro tour this year. Sorry in advance :oops:

Hopefully less NYC, Boston, Philadelphia etc... and more random places. States or cities that don't get as many concerts. I always thought the crowds were better in a places where they don't have the over abundance of entertainment. They are just so excited something amazing is happening that people go nuts( in a good way haha). I'm not saying shows at MSG aren't terrific I'm just saying those cities and crowds get to see epic bands all the time and won't typically be as into the show as someone who doesn't have major bands in the backyard every week.
