I’m probably in the minority, but I was super jacked about the US portion of the spring tour beginning right as the album was being released. I wish PJ would instead release a Gigaton B-Sides album on 3/27, then the real thing just days before they start the US tour dates as originally planned - whenever those are. It’s delayed gratification for sure, but there is something magical about hearing the songs live from an album released less than a week prior.
I just read "Ed & Pearl Jam's" announcement. What a crock. "Ed & Pearl Jam" Give me a break If you want to cancel your tour for some reason, then do so because you're Pearl Jam and you can do whatever the >>ck you want. You've earned it. No need to invoke the government. Sounds like a whiny, finger-pointing excuse.
I was struggling whether I would attend the show I got tix for in light of the current situation. So thanks for making the decision for me. My husband already said he wasn’t going and although I was so excited to see the band back in the Hammer, I was leaning towards not attending either. I feel sorry for all the Ten Club Members and other fans who have paid big money to attend these shows and probably won’t get any refunds on their airfares and hotels. I can’t wait to see the band again .... hopefully sooner than later!
I'm with you! I am happy they made that decision for me. As Im stocking up on stuff so I can avoid public areas... im also looking for MSG tix, planning to go to The Apollo and try to get in, and on TM continually trying to upgrademy StL ticket! Im glad they made this decision easy... and that's for all of us; including them, their families. and their crew. Lets all stay safe and let the storm ride out...
So...anyone want to sell their MSG tickets now? That whole bird in the hand thing? Just think of how much H2O and food you can buy at Cosco that you'll likely need for the apocalypse.

I am bummed. The coronavirus is being overhyped. Its not any different than the yearly flu where you get sick once a season get better and carry on.
Wow. It’s nice to see people are taking this well. I’m pissed. I spent basically all my big entertainment money for show tickets, airfare, and hotels. Of course I booked non refundable hotels to save hundreds overall. Now I’ll lose hundreds overall. I don’t really care about the rescheduling, because except for a hometown show, I’ll no longer be able to afford going to any others since I’d already stretched my budget as much as I responsibly could.
Just sucks. Nobody to blame, but it feels like a kick in the balls for someone who had to orchestrate the logistics perfectly to pull the plans off. Definitely more important things to worry about but this still fucking sucks and I’m bummed.

Might get slagged but I think it’s a bit premature and the comment about the government is just unnecessary. No need to deflect blame on a blameless matter. I guess togetherness is only cool if you’re living in the same echo chamber.
I understand why it is postponed but doesn’t mean that I’m not a little upset.
As for tickets, I think 10c should give an option based on the new dates whether someone wants to keep or return the tickets for a refund
I’ve never heard of a postponed concert without the option of a refund. I’m sure there’s some legal reason behind it, you can’t change the terms and expect the other party to always agree. Old tickets will be honored, but I’m sure a refund will be offered for those who can’t make it.
If they won’t give you a refund there’s a guy in the holiday single thread with a direct line to the attorney general if you want to make a complaint.
Will our tickets be valid for the postponed dates or will we have to go for a new batch of tickets onsale for the new dates?
yes. On the PJ page at the end of the announcement:
Ticketing
We understand it is important to know how ticketing will work. Ticketmaster will be in touch shortly, but current tickets will be honored for the new dates.

Agreed....and how does blaming "our government" explain the Canadian shows postponement?

$1400 in non refundable flights. $600 in Airbnb's that are too close to the date to cancel. A likely fall tour that I can not take vacation on due to work restrictions. Amazing.
That sucks. We fared better. Friend was covering the gas/ferry to get to oakland. I used 20000 Alaska Air points to get back home. Hotel is cancelled without penalty. Not sure if I can get my points back. They have a thing that you can get a free refund for flights until mar 31. hopefully they extend it into april.
I just email Alaska Air to see about any extensions past April due to this. I called and waited on hold for almost 30 minutes 😬

I've been on hold with Expedia for 23 minutes before they hung up on me. :sigh: I just sent an email through Expedia's help system

So why are sporting events not postponed or cancelled.... Rangers Knicks still playing.... millions on the subway but stopping concerts is gonna make a difference

This will be the start, playing to empty arenas, postponements, cancelations. They clearly don’t have this under control and whether you agree or not, measures have to be taken so other countries don’t end up in complete lockdown like Italy is.
I know it sucks for those who already made travel plans, and us who have tickets already. However nobody can fault PJ or think they are overreacting - ultimately they are making the good decision and one I am expecting lots and lots more events, bands, and orginizations to follow

You've already contacted the airlines? Right now they should be refundable.
It’s virtually impossible to get through to Air Canada right now. March break plans in chaos for so many, I suppose.
