PEARL JAM ANNOUNCES FALL 2013 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR DATES

Excited to get an OKC show (and Dallas as a backup for me). I haven't seen the guys since '03. Wish I could afford to make both shows. I saw Eddie last November, now PJ this November? What great bookends this past year.

Just to clarify for the person asking what if you win tix for both GA and Seats! You can only have a pair of tix for a show so no chance of that.

A couple surprises with the tour dates; first off no Boston show. I know Worcester is in Massachusetts and there is a Hartford show but Boston has always been an epic place to play. On the plus size saves at least an hour of driving/dealing with Boston traffic. Eastern Canada and the Midwest both get screwed due to London and Wrigley respectively. Besides Charlotte and Charlottesville, VA the south gets screwed over again other than a festival but then again the South always gets screwed. BTW, WTF is Charlottesville, VA!?!?! The closest major city is Richmond which is over an hour away! Why are the playing Charlottesville??? No MSG is no surprise because its being renovated Brooklyn is better than Jersey. Best news of the first leg is for the first time in 17 years the band will play Baltimore instead of DC.
Las Vegas is surprisingly left off the west coast tour. Good to see the band play cities for the first time in over ten years in Oklahoma City, Dallas and Phoenix. Nice to see Spokane get a show and I hope Calgary won't be flooded by the time the band shows up.

Do you think they skipped Toronto because they are playing London in a few days? That would seem odd, especially if they have a new album coming out and you'd assume they'd want to play new songs for people . . . they always seem to hit Toronto. I am curious as to why they are skipping it this time....

I should have signed my gf up for the 10C this pas week! :x :evil:

Anyone think a second Hartford date may be added? If not, I have a feeling that this will be a very long show considering it is the only one in a four day span.

Why no Florida dates? I was really excited about the tour announcement hoping for at least one date but we got screwed. :evil: Unless they add a date after playing New Orleans.

Going to both Brooklyn shows. Probably at least one Philly show and Hartford. Anyone need a free place to stay, mi casa es tu casa. I live in Staten Island NY.

A REAL big thank you to all the members of Pearl Jam for choosing to come to Texas on the tour.
Austin in 2009 has been too long ago.

There is much love for PJ in the lone star state.

I can't wait.

I agree. I'm from Jacksonville and some people here really sucks. I'm still hoping for a date after the Voodoo festival

Honestly we suck as a crowd. Wish I could get Florida fans to be better but I dont think that's going to happen.

Road trip to visit some friends in some far off places awaits.

Can't Wait.

Really? Most artists who have played in Charlottesville agree it's as good as any place in the country to play. It's an absolutely gorgeous college town that is not too far from Richmond and DC but without all the "big city" nonsense and chaos. Acts much bigger than PJ (from a strict "sales" perspective) come through regularly, so even though I personally never thought it would happen it does make a lot of sense. Having said that though I have to think that maybe there were conflicts with the Verizon Center in DC with the WIzards or Capitals that forced them to look at alternatives.

Regardless, this has potential to be an incredible evening. It's not often that at this point in their career they actually play a town for the very first time.

Question about the lottery, never entered it before:

So Iooks like I'm putting down 1. Baltimore GA, 2. Hartford Res, 3. Pitt Res--I want to go to the Brooklyn shows, too, but what are my chances putting them down so far in the list? And: will more shows impact the priority of the number of shows you put down (for example: Would someone who puts down just 1 show have a better chance at getting that show than say if I put Brooklyn down as 4. and 5.? Does this make sense?)

Thanks in advance for the help! So excited to meet so many new people on tour!

The quantity of shows you put in for doesn't have an impact other than your odds getting lower with your 4th choice, 5th choice, etc. If someone only puts in for one choice, they're still up against everyone else who made that particular show their first choice. If you put Brooklyn as, say, your 5th choice keep in mind anyone who has made that pair of tickets their 1st through 4th choice will automatically have priority.

Cool. Honestly, I just put them in actual order of preference and hope for the best. And don't forget it's possible you could get drawn for every show you put in for.

Doubt that'll happen, but always a chance! Planning 5 shows--3 with 2 other friends going, the remaining 2 solo--is difficult!

You're not kidding. I used to catch as many shows between Boston and Philly as I could. Now with the lottery and one-night-only-per-two-night-run, it's way too much up in the air. Just sticking with Worcester and Hartford and hoping I even don't get shut out of those!

I need help. I used my friends debit card for shows but there's no $1 fee. Is that because its a debit card ?

Did you get a confirmation email? If so, don't sweat it.
