Possible St Louis dates are 4-3, 4-4, 4-5 (assuming Nashville is correct on 4-2)

Possible OKC dates are 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 4-8, 4-9
Possible Denver dates are 4-6, 4-8, 4-9, 4-10

I would imagine Denver has to be 4/6 or 4/9. I would think the Pepsi Center needs to keep 4/8 and 4/10 open in case the Avs have home-ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

While we wait for the announcement... Does anyone know if Pearl Jam is classic rock?

they are classic pearl jam 

So who's modern Pearl Jam? And who's indie Pearl Jam?

Pearl jam, and Pearl jam
 

Never heard of either of them.

Don’t think that’s how the playoffs works, might need some hockey help here

if the Avs get seed 1-4 they get 2 home games to start the series 

but game 1’s for round 1 of the upcoming playoffs are played over 2 days, not one

meaning they could get games on the 8th & 10th, or the 9th & 11th


the 6th makes more sense

How were the dates compiled? Any confirmation from any of the venues? 

That's like asking "How does Sherlock Holmes solve the case?"

There’s a great way to test the process. Scan the Europe rumor thread the week before the tour announcement came out. See how close that rumor list is the the actual announced tour

The last rumor list put together for the European tour before the official announcement was dead on. 

https://community.pearljam.com/discussion/268658/2020-tour-rumor-thread/p290

 ther latest list here posted ,is not dead on...if someone looks the map will understand why. )

This has to either be Canada, or maybe OKC before Denver.  Or even NYC before Baltimore

There’s a show on the 9th.

How about Nashville 4/2 St. Louis 4/4 OKC 4/6 and Denver 4/9?

And the 11th is already booked.

That's what I was saying...they would have games on the 8th and 10th, so concert could be 9th. Nuggets have a home game on the 11th, so Avs couldn't go 9th and 11th. I agree the 6th makes more sense, but STL to OKC to Denver probably makes more sense too.

It’s my understanding that Pepsi center needs to be available 4/8&4/9 since the Av’s could possibly host a game 1 on either of these dates.

Looks like if the Avs get home ice, the 8th & 10th are only options

I want to do a spring break trip with my family to Tennessee for spring break. A Nashville/
Memphis combo would be absolutely perfect. 

I can’t recall, but what is the clue that solidified Nashville? Was it the bbq one? Because that could definitely point to Memphis over Nashville.

Well Dimi said he doesn't have any more city clues to give from the list that has been compiled on here, pretty much confirming that the cities are correct

As a Nashvillian, I’m praying rumors are true. Haven’t seen an arena PJ show yet and would love Bridgestone to be my 1st. 

 Nice! 

I believe this was the most solid Nashville "hint" (page 57). Also, someone commented "Can we expect a show in Memphis, Nashville, or Raleigh", to which Dimi responded "One, yes". So this is where the Nashville "confirm" and Memphis "deny" comes into play. Take it for what it's worth.

thoughts?

1) set up stage after hockey game to have a show the next day, or
2) have show day before game and have tear down complete by midday of hockey game?

With 1) having to occur with stage being set up a for a show two days prior the day after a concert?

Normal arena shows are set up on the day of the show. Load out takes about 2-3 hours and is done right after the show ends.

Empty arena in the morning
Gear is loaded in, stage set up.
Soundcheck around 4 PM
Doors at 6 PM
Show over at 11 PM
All Gear packed up and arena empty by 2 AM

Does not matter what happens the day before or after

.
Yeah, it's crazy how quick the conversion/cleaning crews get to work. Mike finishes that last note, gives his tech the guitar, Eddie goes through all the thanks and the second the band leaves the stage, there's 20 (whatever) guys up there pulling stuff down when fans are still asking for setlists or whatever.

It was maybe 10-15 minutes after the Columbus show ended and I was being shooed off the floor so that the seats could be taken away.

There was that show on Showtime or whatever that showed some of the road crew setting up for the Lexington show.  I believe they got started well before sunrise the day of the show, but that may have been an exception.

The crazy ones are the shows that have two matching setups that "leapfrog" each other. I'm digressing now, but when Beyonce came to Columbus, her crew needed something like a week to set up. Of course, that required various permits that Pearl Jam may not need. Still, her crazy setup was gone like a day or two later.
