Mass just announced 100% capacity and all business restrictions to tentatively end August 1st. (Pending trends and such.). 

And this day could be moved up earlier if things continue to trend in the right direction

I'm sure this is going to get me some hate, but I'm going to very disappointed if PJ announce and sell tickets for new shows before rescheduling the 2020 tour they've been holding onto our money for.

Not a new show. Its for the Denver show. Just a new arena name.

Pepsi Center show was part of the 2020 Tour

Denver is not a new show

TBD still flashes me back to the ill-fated second Boston show in 2010 that never was.

Fucking Newark.

This should not get you any hate but I would be prepared for a couple of things to happen here. One would be an Australian tour in the our winter/their summer happening before the reschedules. I could actually see this being announced before the new dates are so they could maximize ticket sales like they did for Europe in 2019/spring tour 2020. Second would be there very likely could be new shows mixed in with the postponed dates. Fall 2020 was going to be both legs combined with Canada on the end of it after the election. I am curious when they do the two legs this time if they do the reschedules first or split them up and mixing new cities in that makes sense geographically. Third if the two fall dates happen this year I think they would likely add 2 or 3 more festivals. Also being a Canadian I am bias saying this but I would love the Canadian portion of the 2020 shows to happen plus whatever they were going to add this November. Have a cross Canada mini tour. Get that out of the way then tour in the US back to back legs late winter/early spring.

Cool, I didn't realize that.  My statement still stands, though.

I totally agree that everything you outline is likely to happen, and I stand by my statement that it will be lame to announce and sell tickets to new shows before the previous ones are rescheduled.

I have tickets to the Ottawa show, and I'm fully expecting those to not happen til next spring since Canada is still not in great shape. I'm fine if they announce some new shows in the US this fall that I can try and get tickets to, and I'll just hold my Ottawa.

I just had a visual of stadiums lining up and fighting each other for the rail. Is there a list yet?

JeBurkhardt

As much as I would love them to reschedule St Louis for this Fall, I am figuring it will be Spring 22.

RatherStarved

If they can do SHN and Ohana this fall with maybe some more outdoor shows added, and the indoor 2020 spring tour next spring that would be fine with me.

Another outdoor festival announcement

Not insignificant.

I wonder if there is a scenario out there where all of these festivals go on and the states Pearl Jam are playing allow them to play and Pearl Jam still backs out until next year.

If they were set to headline Bonnaroo or one of these rando festivals I’d say yes. The fact that it’s Ohana and Clinch’s festival makes it more unlikely that they’d back out. I still wouldn’t bet on them adding more shows though, I think the smart money right now is on them just doing in 2022 more or less what they were planning to do in 2020.

Will you have access to pre sale tickets since you are in the platinum level of the Better Than Ezra fan club?

I’ve moved on from a lot of the bands/albums I used to like in the 90’s (he writes on the Pearl Jam fan club message board in 2021), but I still sincerely love Friction, Baby.

As has happened in the U.K. Majority of festivals still happening here from July onwards. BST was one of the very few that was cancelled (assume due to PJ / international line up). Fingers crossed, the way things are going here, most restrictions will be gone by mid June. Theoretically PJ could almost certainly have played it this year but decided against it.

I may be looking too hard but I feel like there are hints being dropped on social media... Also, side note, NYC fully open July 1. I don't see a reason why they couldn't do a "proof of vax only" tour...

The band just sends me side stage passes at this point.

Desperately Wanting… a Pearl Jam tour!

helplessdancer

my desperation goes beyond arena pearl jam and who shows...live music, in small clubs is a massive part what keeps me happy&sane.

this bad trip has not been easy for an old living dinosaur...i really really really miss live music
