    You got a 10 page comment thread out of it, so at least there was content for the forum from it!

    Sounds like a scene from The Departed.

    A friend of mine, who occasionally has info come across his desk, told me this and as an excited fan, I decided to share it.

    A friend of yours told you that all your pipe dreams about the band (that you posted about, multiple times) for the last few years were coming true?  
    "Well, I think this band is incapable of sucking."

    No warning in previous newsletter to keep membership updated, no prior annoncements in newsletters... Never have an Alt Nation tale paned out. 

    odds was never really stacking up, right?

    Sources  close to the band are indicating that a major announcement regarding upcoming release of Pearl Jam Eleven, a double disc album representing their 11th studio album is imminent.

    Sources also say the band will be announcing a worldwide tour which begin January 2020.

    Early indications are that the album and tour will be an “all encompassing trip” featuring concerts, memorabilia and poster collection exhibits, as well “smaller” venue shows sprinkled in.

    Official announcement expected on October 10th, 2019
    must be coming later in the day, right?

    I told my wife about the big rumored announcement this morning regarding LP 11.  She said "Will it be called Eleven since you know...Ten? " I texted her at 10am when nothing was announced she said "Well wouldn't 11 be announced on the 11th?"  So let's see...

    Ovaltine was developed in Bern, Switzerland, where it is known by its original name, Ovomaltine (from ovum, Latin for "egg", and malt, which were originally its main ingredients). Unlike everything else in this thread those are facts.  =)

    I agree with Santos not to believe everything you read. However, there most definitely are some in this board that have fed us reliable intel. And because of that I was able to book rooms at decent rates near arenas, etc. and the fact is, with nothing to go on from official sources, there are going to be rumors. The problem now is people are now making up false rumors to troll Alt Nation, which also tricks other people who are hungry for shows. And if anyone wants to believe a conspiracy theory that I just made up, Santos wouldn’t have posted that popcorn meme if something wasn’t in the works. Maybe somebody got too close to the truth! Connect the dots people!!

    Pearl Jam now is more a business than a band. They will have an “announcement” saying when they announce a tour or album. They will never just announce something out of the blue. Their business model is putting out old music onto vinyls and making holiday themed shirts. When a tour finally does come I’m sure there will be a “countdown clock” like all the big bands do (I think Metallica is in the mist of one). This is why I prefer “smaller” bands. I saw Chad Stokes (Dispatch/State Radio) at G Love’s fest and I asked him if anything was on horizon and replied “new album in November and playing Boston in December”. I love Pearl Jam but they are way past telling common folks their business. Until I see a countdown clock I believe nothing. 
    So you asked a guy in a smaller band about their plans 8 weeks out and he told you info that would’ve been set and previously out in their social media?
    Yes. Imagine asking Eddie Vedder at Ohana Festival about upcoming show. He give you a Bill Belicheck answer. Chad Stokes’s major band Dispatch is pretty big in terms of fan base so me being able to tell fans in their forum about upcoming news was pretty big as I heard it straight from him with no speculation. People on FB heard something was on horizon and I was able to them exactly what Chad told me as we had a conversation and he gave me a straight forward answer. My only point is Pearl Jam is an A list band and the days of them worrying about connecting with fans outside of shows has been probably gone since that MTV vinyl coming was a live show. I personally enjoy musicians who still communicate with their fans. Not Pearl Jam’s fault necessarily it’s just they are not “struggling” musicians anymore. 
    I don’t know. For a band of their size, it seems like they connect pretty well with fans during random encounters in the public. They don’t ‘leak’ information , likely because of the size of the operation, they have to wait until everything’s solid planning wise before saying anything. I’m sure if they had shows scheduled two months from now, and an album one month from, Mike would tell me about it if I saw him on the street and asked him about it.

    Still...better than the guy in Queens trying to book the band.
    I liked how his post started with "for immediate release" like it was some kind of press release or something
