the tour may need flights but they have to drive their gear by trucks so it can't be more fucked up
Where does the rumour of shitty lollapalooza in Sthlm come from? Same owner as Rock Werchter?
Pearl Jam has declined festivals in the nordic countries before (e.g. Peace and Love in Borlänge, Sweden)...
... would rather they play Sweden but sticking to skipping festivals.
Unless Way out West in Gothenburg due to:
The festival is vegetarian and has been completely meat free and largely dairy free since 2012 and has been certified in accordance with ISO 20121 since 2013, a testament to the festival's sustainability efforts, which have seen it reduce its carbon footprint year-by-year.
Throw some of your weight around PJ to do the right thing and only play vegetarian festivals @Kelly Curtis
Do the right thing.
I've smuggled drugs and alcohol in to fests plenty, but jerky would be a new one. I feel like I'm up for it.
Spicy 1 - Lodz (Northeast from Imola and connected only to 2 countries by flights)
Spicy 2 - Budapest (Train to Warsaw and multiple flights to Budapest)
Spicy 3 - Paris (Direct flights from Budapest @ ~120 Euros + close to BST in the UK on )
Not sure why I'm trying to solve this puzzle from Australia, but hey, it's fun to play.
Agree that Spicy 1 smells like Lodz. It is also about 2 hours by train to Warsaw, from where you can get flight to Budapest. Spicy 3 could also be Munich. That way Germany would get 2 shows, using that piece of the puzzle. Didn't check flight prices. But then again, Spicy 2 could be somewhere totally different (ljubljana, zagreb. )

Just to say that IF they are to play BST in London, the first announcements last year were on 27th November. Always a great set up in Hyde Park but seriously hoping there's a golden circle section. Also hoping its not on the same day as my daughters school prom....decisions decisions.
BST always has golden circle, sometimes diamond circle too. For Neil Young there last year it had both gold and platinum, prices were £399, £199 and £99 respectively from most to least.
The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits

Jerky is shaped just right for a certain place for you to conceal it, might taste a little funny afterwards though.

Day off work and I wanted to play! So to further summarize the hints - Thanks Dimi
- No shows in Finland, Ireland, Greece, Istanbul, Pula, Schalke, Warsaw or Gdansk, Spain
- Playing somewhere on 23d June not Zurich
- Playing somewhere 26th - 28th June - not Gothenburg
- Appears to be a show in Poland- likely Lodz (maybe Krakow again)
- Playing Werchter which is 2nd - 5th July
- Playing Imola on 5th July
- 3 Spicy shows are only 3 indoor shows after Imola
- Vienna not part of spicy three but not been discounted as playing another date
- Hungary date is not next gig after Imola
- UK date will be festival - prob BST
- Amsterdam is also a likely certainty and next gig will be south after that
- No logical sense to tour order - east - west - north - south - east - west - east
- Spicy 1 - only has 2 countries that have flights to it
- Between Spicy 1 & 2 will need a 2 hour train and then flight
- Between Spicy 2 & 3 direct flight at least 120 euros
So here is my guess: 13 shows of which 7 indoors, 1 outdoors and 5 festivals. Only a month give or take to wait and find out lol.....
Amsterdam 18/6 - indoors
Vienna 21/6 - indoors
Berlin 23/6 - outdoors Prague 26/6 - indoors Stockholm 28/6 - festival - Lolla is 28-30 Copenhagen 30/6 - indoors Werchter 3/7 - festival Imola 5/7 - festival Spicy 1 Lodz 8/7 - indoors (looks like only flights here from London & Dublin) Spicy 2 Munich 10/7 - indoors Spicy 3 Budapest 13/7 - indoors London BST 17/7 - festival (on basis that BST is a week later next year due to footy) Paris 19/7 - festival (Lolla is 18-19)

12 dates version, throw in indoors in Barcelona and outdoors in France
EDIT: But then again, one of the hints was that one country will get more than one show. Maybe another one too. Back to the drawing board.... dammit
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
Spicy 3 could also be Munich. That way Germany would get 2 shows, using that piece of the puzzle. Didn't check flight prices.
But then again, Spicy 2 could be somewhere totally different (ljubljana, zagreb. )
