A reliable source gave me some great US tour news today.  Minds will be blown soon. Sorry was told to keep a tight lip.

One of those dates @ the Sea.Hear.Now Festival in September 2020 held in Asbury Park, New Jersey?

Finally... a show I can ride my bicycle to... but might need to upgrade to some type of poster tube carrier on the back. 

Oh man I hope not. Play Pnc instead.  

I'm down with PNC but I don't see it happening because I'm pretty sure the only way NJ might get a show would be because of the band's connection to Danny Clinch and his festival. 

Not sure the festival is big enough. 

I've never been, how many people could possibly fit on that stretch of ap beach?

They had 35,000 for this year's festival with Dave Matthews Band as the headliner.

Man, it is a pain to park and get in and out of Asbury on a regular summer beach day, or a Stone Pony Summerstage show; i can't even imagine a show with 35,000 people.

At the same time, 35,000 is a nice Pearl Jam audience, but is it enough attendance for a festival that has Pearl Jam as the headliner to break even? How many people attend ACL or other summer festivals that PJ has played?  

I am shocked Asbury was able to handle 35,000 people for a concert and would have to think it was somewhere close to max?  But I admittedly don't really know.

Where the heck do people park? There s barely enough parking as it is.  

Exactly what I was wondering. Last time we tried to go to the beach in Asbury we gave up finding parking and went elsewhere.

They really push taking the train.  They also run shuttles.  But if you drive you can park in Loch Arbour or Allenhurst.  That’s where we parked for Bamboozle when we saw Foo Fighters.  It’s like a 5 minute walk. 

I went both years and honestly parking wasn’t terrible. Both years I had a 2-3 mile walk. To me wasn’t horrible 

I went to Sea Hear Now this year and got there early enough both days that parking wasn't bad.  What was terrible was trying to move through the crowd to get from one stage to the other.  There was no time between the end of one act on one stage and the start of the next one on the other so that was challenging also.  There weren't any acts this year that I cared enough about to need to be fairly close to the stage so it didn't matter to me, but it seemed like an overwhelming number of people were on the beach by the time the headliners hit the stage.  Regardless though, it would be an incredible setting to see PJ or Eddie solo.

Ha! I am firmly among the "Ed says a lot of things" truthers.

Plus that really cuts it close to election day, which is what a lot of earlier rumors were based on.

Ohana is 9/25/20-9/27/20. Maybe PJ will finally play that.

That is an unconfirmed date though as far as I can tell and would be surprised if he did both on the same weekend. He is heavily involved all 3 days for Ohana.

What have we heard from @LeafsJaysCubsRaptorsFan?

It seems like he's usually on the money.

Hey! Sorry been busy preparing for the arrival of baby #2 next year. Aside from what I posted earlier that us is a go and Canada I still believe that to be true based on what info I was given. I try not to ask my source too often. Whenever I hear something I’ll certainly let everyone know what I can.

Before or after Europe?

As much as I’d love to think earlier is possible, it seems pretty unlikely.  Zero rumors means it’s not happening that early or everyone involved is keeping it in a vault. Can that many people stay quiet??

I have always believed that the new album would drop in April with a spring NA tour , then Europe in the summer.  If that were to be true any announcement would have to come in  January ( like 2016).  Unfortunately with no solid rumours it seems less likely but you never know.

Im going with a few ball park concerts after EU, this would fall in line with the "think earlier" comment above. Then a fall arena tour NA. This would allow Ed time for Ohana and Global Citizens in late September. Stamp it!

That would be cool

Right now, if I just had confirmation 100% that there would be no shows before Europe, I’d be happy, so I could plan out my first half of 2020
