Even 2013 when they played 3 South America shows, they played 3 Canadian shows, and the band fucking loves Canada, and Canadian Tours are hella easy to set up
Lol ya I dont know how many people are going to come on here saying we're dreaming and it makes no sense for them to play Canada this year. No its more like it would make no sense if they didn't play Canada this year. Do the research people its all there lol.

Even if you compare it to how they played in South America and Canada in 2013. Take last year for example they played in Europe and some American shows then go back 2 years to 2012 same thing toured Europe with some American shows. In 2011 where we're they Canada and South America. 2010 in Europe and some American shows. 2009 is actually very similar to 2013. Instead of playing London they played Toronto, played in Chicago, did a big North American tour then went to Australia and New Zealand then like I said continued in Europe and US in 2010. Its all a very similar pattern. Read this before you doubt Canada in 2015.
2009 Backspacer came out they played Toronto and Vancouver that 2009 year . Then 2 years later in 2011 we saw Pearl Jam tour Canada. 2013 Lightning Bolt came out they played London, Calgary and Vancouver that 2013 year. 2 years later in 2015 we will see Pearl Jam tour Canada once again. That would be why the tour similarities in 2009 and 2013 because albums came out.
They announced the 2011 tour in early May, if memory serves, so that would most likely be the targeted time for a 2015 announcement too. If there is no rampant speculation and solid intel by the end of April I would say we are out of luck. But until then, we will always have this board.

All I'm saying is that if they don't announce it. They will be breaking a trend that started 10 years ago or maybe even longer because in 2003 they played Toronto and Montreal and later near the end of touring played Mexico City x3 so even back then they still played Canada and South America same year.
Would love to see them tour Canada again this fall! Seems crazy to leave Canada out of this tour. Come back to Winnipeg!! The energy at their last (and only!) 2 shows here in the last 10 years was amazing!
I haven't been to Canada ever as an adult. Seems like the perfect reason to break that trend!

Someone feels they may not come because there hasn't been any rumours about it. I guess every time they've come before there's been rumours about it. What do you think?
there were no rumours about the Midwest Tour last year except for ACL, highly confident this will happen, along with 2 Gorge shows
Denver was rumored and those rumors were spot on.
Yup.
To the comment about London/Wrigley, the London show was a surprise but Wrigley was rumored/confirmed the day after the Wrigley Springsteen shows in September 2012 by Rich Russo (New York DJ and fan of Springsteen and Pearl Jam).
Similarly, there were rumors in December 2013 of Pearl Jam having holds on venues for May 2014 (Toronto, Montreal, St. Louis if i recall) but this of course didn't happen. Right after ACL was announced April 2014, rumors about Denver and Lincoln surfaced.
My point being, usually rumors of holds on venues surface months in advance of shows being announced. This was even true of the 2010 tour when they announced shows six weeks before the tour started, the May 2010 MSG date was rumored around the time of the Spectrum shows. Pearl Jam doesn't usually surprise us with tour dates.
