I love you Chicago people, really I do. But you guys have to slow your fuckin' roll. They'll end up like PJ20 and you'll end up not even caring any more. Just give it a few more years. 

Nope. And in fact, as time has gone on, I've wanted them more. I admit, I had all but given up on the 2013 show until they announced the plans for the 16 shows. That tease even got me hopeful the 13 show might be included in some way. Obviously, we'll survive if they never see the light of day, but then the question must be asked - do you really want to live in a world without Wrigley boots?

And still no 2016 box set?! Disappointing to say the least.

I get that they asked for a little more time to do something special and that probably means a BluRay. But that was nearly a year ago! Video was shot, audio was recorded, what's the hold up??

Only thing I can think of is Pearl Jam likes to give work to smaller manufacturers as their way of giving back, and said little guy can't handle the order.

I forgive there's still no 2016 Holiday Single. It's only July. BUT WHERE IS WRIGLEY?!?! Just sell me the audio and I'll buy the BluRay later.

And Pearl Jam need a new concert to sell. I think they've released every song from Showbox 2003 DVD on YouTube.

No one buys concerts anymore.

We did. Nothing. Nothing is embarrassing about it.

that would be a terrible world..... we need the happiness and joy that would be generated by the Wrigley boots!!!

Can't make a box set when all the shows haven't been released.

Imagine those awaiting the 2013 Wrigley boot....

Imagine me then, I'm still waiting...the recording of The Soldier Field show, July 11, 1995, was released from the vault on July 11, 2017.....so it looks like I'll still be waiting for 2013 Wrigley Field boot in 20 years.....and I'll still be here.....

I wouldn't say it is embarrassing.  I'd say it's disappointing not to hear any info or updates on it from the 10c.  Even if it's to mention in an email or sticky that it's 3-6 months away.   Granted after not getting PJ20 boots, or Wrigley 2013, it's not too surprising.  I wish they would release the Fenway night 1 video that they showed at the HOB the next night.  Nothing has been said about that.

I'm fine with the wait. I do think they should have released the digital files already though. That would have been an easy double dip as I'd say a good portion of those interested in the physical media would have bought digital last October and still purchased whatever it is that's yet-to-be released.

Pretty big of OP to forgive them for the Christmas single.

That shit's divine.

What fell through at PJ20? Did they ever announce a video for that or something?

Agreed! Still waiting for the PJ20 Alpine Valley boot! Come on guys!
