    Jazz fest rumors. Where are they coming from?

    I have no clue. As far as I know the rumors are coming from people who just want them to play there, and therefore are saying it's confirmed.
    The Jazz Fest rumours are legit rumours that have come from multiple sources.

    I've only seen the jazz fest rumors as speculation here too.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    I just hope they announce a Soldier Field/Wrigley show awhile in advance. I want to go to a show so bad this summer!

    They announced Wrigley on January 22nd or 23rd I believe? The public onsale wasn't until February 9th. That I'm positive about because it was a really bad day for me! Fingers crossed and good luck when they go on sale!

    Where exactly? I went last year and probably in 2 years but not this year! Future wife's family pays for it too :( really wish they'd push that back a year

    I feel like I'm missing something. I know this is ALL speculation, but why do we think a hypothetical Euro leg is hypothetically cancelled?

    Again, all hypothetical: If a spring US/Canada tour is moved to Summer, why wouldn't a Summer Euro tour get bumped to fall or even 2017? Why is cancelling it the only theory that I'm skimming over while barely reading the posts?

    Because the dates overlap. The leaked European dates started just before Bonnarroo and continued to early July.

    It is entirely likely that they will return to Europe in the spring of 2017, but bumping the European tour to the fall of 2016 seems very unlikely as Euro tours tend to be centered around a series of spring festival dates.
    and there is the european championship in football (soccer). they toured europe many times during a world or european championship. there is not much else going on as at least half of the continent is watching the footy.

    hrm...

    jazzfest is a tough one for me... 6 hour drive is a bit much, but somehow I still can't justify flying to new orleans from houston... Went last time they played I wentwith my wife, but the overcrowded city, overpriced hotels, over-reserved restaurants, etc made it not that great an experience other than the show itself (good setlist for a festival show)...

    that being said: I am taking note of the fact that Jazzfest doesn't have a contractual clause restricting bands from playing in Houston (i.e. VoodooFest, ACL)... maybe there is some truth/glimmer or hope that a date here is possible.... :)... though I'm not going to get my hopes up
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    "Legit rumours" what exactly does that even mean??
    I think people are assuming they will play jazz fest only because pj will be touring in the area at the same time as jazzfest. That's it. Nobody has "sources".

    a "Legit rumour" is a rumour that you want to believe, hopefully posted by someone you want to believe...

    actually, I'm worried hotels.com is going to ban me when I cancel the 37 nights I currently have booked... thats what im worried about LOL

    Lol. You deserve a ban! ;)
    I checked my reservations the other night and actually saved about $100 per night in NYC after I noticed a price drop... canceled & rebooked asap!

    The real problem will be is if all the dates I have booked are accurate... ouch!
    We booked our hotels for Ottawa, QC, MTL and Toronto... in hopes the dates are true... i have also been checking out prices to make sure they are staying the same, so far so good.

    wow this is the first time i have ever read anything negative about jazz fest and nola.
    maybe it wasn't your first time to the city...but i've been 3 times now and done jazz fest once and it's the greatest city in america. nothing even comes close...but i wouldn't travel all the way there just for pearl jam. that city has way to much going on besides any rock band playing.

    I live and work in Houston.

    Half the city of Houston lives here Monday-noon Friday, and drives back to Louisiana/Alabama Friday afternoon. Come lunch time Friday, the I-10 headed east is a parking lot.

    With all the money that the city of Houston pumps into the Louisiana/Alabama economies, personnally, I prefer not to give that area of the US my tourist dollars. Especially when I see the attitudes of my co-workers that travel back there every weekend (and the people who live there) towards the Texas economy.

    So in short, it doesn't take much for me to have a negative view of New Orleans. That being said, I have been there many times, and have countless stories of people I know well mugged, car jacked, etc around Bourbon street and the French Quarter at respectable hours. I have also have had pleasant experiences/trips there... Jazzfest itself was fine, the festival is well run and the city is clean and respectable that weekend - that being said, I was gouged for every dollar they could bleed out of me... as I would expect to for a high-traffic weekend. No different than Austin ACL weekends or Chicago Lolla weekend... I would make the same complaints about those cities, and I had a great time every occasion i've attended...

    blah blah blah.... the short of it is, I would rather fly to Florida and/or Toronto to see PJ than drive to New Orleans....

    and I would definitely argue with you labelling new orleans as the "greatest city in america"... that is definitely a stretch.

    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    JazzFest is a great experience, if you DON'T go to see the main headliner all the time...it's crazy crazy crazy at the Acura stage for the Sat. headline acts, just look up pics from Elton John last year. It's much more fun (for me at least) to see acts on the other stages. If you sit at Acura all day to claim a spot you are missing most of what's great about JF.
