Now that its looking like baseball stadiums only for the US tour; does anyone know of any venues they will play in the US that do not allow GA in front of the stage? I live in NJ and would like to see them in Philly; but Cititzens Parks allows GA and I prefer to have a reserved seat. I got third row in Fenway in 2016 due to seniority. I guess I will try for Fenway Tix again as I know they don't allow GA there. Any other stops on the tour that do not allow GA? Thanks.  Andrew

To get 3rd row at Fenway your number must of been low 10,XXX. I saw multiple people with crazy low numbers fairly far back like row 13 and 14 especially night 1 with all of the VIP tickets in front. Of course there is the lottery for rows 1,2 and 9,10 but that is different. With regards to the other shows Chicago obviously has a history of GA. Safeco has had both and so has Citizen Bank(if the rumours are true) so we will just have to wait and see. For that matter Fenway has had GA at it's concerts too so who knows maybe Pearl Jam will this time too. 

I was row 8 with a 139XXX fan club number.

Thanks for the clarification my memory must be bad. I thought I remember people with 50XXX not even in the top 10 rows. Maybe night 1 was different then night 2.

I'm dumbfounded that Fall Out Boy is booking a venue that big.  Yikes

pretty sad day when such a shitty band can play at a historic venue like Wrigley.

Fall Out Boy may suck (I honestly never heard one of their songs) but I just learned Rise Against is opening that show and they kill it. Listen to Ballad of Hollis Brown (Dylan cover) as their version is amazing.  There are newer good bands but sadly not the ones the masses enjoy.

Journey & Def Lepard are touring stadiums. Busch Stadium in STL confirmed

You posted this and I thought it was a joke. Now they are playing Fenway and I think I might go.

The VIP seats at Fenway were out of hand... Way too many.

Seems unlikely with the band playing Wrigley shows the last few go arounds, but yesterday a friend who works with Live Nation/Alpine Valley told me the venue is working to secure a PJ show for its 2018 lineup. The venue was closed for the 2017 season for the first time in 40 years after failing to attract major headliners and chose to use the off time for repairs and upgrades. So far, Alpine has booked the Zac Brown Band and Dead and Company, both for 2 night stints this summer. Would be a great way to welcome back an awesome venue with a vist from PJ! Here is to wishful thinking!

They are playing Citizen’s Bank Park in Philly for sure, likely second weekend of September. This per an executive friend that works at the stadium. 

It's either between Sept 3-9 or 20-27. Those are the weeks the Phillies are away.

That’s exciting news and hope it comes to fruition! Thanks for sharing

PJ is not the show for Kaufmann Stadium.  It's a country music band that I have never heard of.

Just did a quick search and found the thread that listed night 1's locations. Not as bad as I remembered but still a lot of rows in front of some great 10 club numbers.

This makes me think that we are a long way from an announcement.  LeafsJaysCubsRaptorsFan said February/March announcement, which seems right if they are still planning the tour.

Not true - more false rumors.

That’s the wrong guy

ponner1us

Demetrios' twitter post is just a recap of the Reddit post that everyone shat on yesterday for being an "unbelievable rumor."  So I wouldn't hold your breath, although it would be nice if we got some news soon.

Sorry PJNB, just saw that you said the same thing above.

Oh - that isn't him?  Sorry.
Plus the tweet refers to Reddit so it probably has little validity.

Demetrios is one of the best forum members involved here ever. Always helpful and super nice. 

Anyways- he just posted a link from reddit. He is not claiming this info himself. Hope it’s true though- especially philly.

Lots of vacation this year and cant wait to hear an announcement. Between this thread and endless Falcon Heavy delays its been an exciting few weeks of anticipation.

Any idea if we hear anything next week?

There's a reason Pearl Jam will be the last band to announce the ballpark shows....there are only 3 ballparks and 6 shows so they will sell out without needing any time at all.

seattle
chicago

(I haven't been around the forums much because I have not believed any of the previous rumors.  The above feels right to me.)

Wow, huge slip with those seattle dates on the site. Weird it is just Seattle tho..
