The South America tour 2015 and the possibility of a Curitiba show: Ten years after Pedreira's 2005

So... I saw a lot of threads here asking for PJ in festivals, cities, with a lot of campaigns to raise funds.
Recently rumors pointed out that Pearl Jam is coming to South America again. The Brazilian fans are so happy, even that this rumor may not be the truth. 2015 it’s a magic year because it’s been 10 years since the first time that the greatest band in the world played here. As you guys can see in the videos at internet or released in PJ20, the band was amazed with South American crowd and with the venues. I don’t want to be soppy, but you guys must remember the show that this band played at the Pedreira Paulo Leminsky, city of Curitiba. I know that Eddie had drunk a lot, but he said that it was the most beautiful place that PJ ever played. He was amazed with the trees, the rocks, the lakes in this venue. I recognize that I am being tendentious, but I really think that Pedreira Paulo Leminski has its beauty such as The Gorge and Red Rocks.
This place was closed for shows in 2008 due to some problems with its neighborhood. Due to this reason, the 2011 show here was at Paraná Clube's stadium (I confess that I thought it cool because I am a fan of this soccer team). In 2014 we had the great news that the Pedreira’s would be opened for great events and rock shows!
Until this moment, there is a Kiss show scheduled for April 21, but who cares? We want to see Pearl Jam playing in this magic venue again. The Ramones, Iron Maiden, Paul McCartney, Pixies and ACDC also played there before.
I know that I a wrote a lot of stuff, so I would like to let some pictures of this venue. I am not a fool, and I admit that there’s a lot of thing to get involved to schedule a PJ show, but I wonder how beautiful it would be with Eddie singing ‘Do you see how that tree bends? Does it inspire?’ while he points his finger for the trees of this venue!

The dressing room is up on the rocks and there is an elevator that lead the band to the stage. Here is a pic of the band after 2005 show, going back to the dressing room.
