    Another scenario I see happening if the situation in Europe gets worse but somehow gets better in the states:

    Europe Tour cancelled, PJ fills the summer with the rescheduled NA shows
    I highly doubt they’ll be playing a single show this year after this.
    If we are in a situation where shows and public gatherings are still being cancelled come September then we will have bigger problems than missing Pearl Jam shows.

    I read this as I am at the gym, Pearl Jam on shuffle of course, and now it seems to be playing all their saddest songs. 😢

    They should postpone the postponement for after the tour

    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!

    Nice job blaming the government

    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.


    "Ed & Pearl Jam" are better than that.

    Hubs and I were in the same boat as you and your hubs. 
    Feeling bad for all of you out there who are out significant money (we're, so far, only out 2 NHL games' worth of tickets). 

    ETA - probably going to eat AirCanada tickets. :(

    this must be what was meant when we were hearing that our "minds would be blown" by PJ this year!

    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 personally hope it’s just pushed to next spring. I don’t want it messing with any other plans that are in place.

    Bloody shame... but it’s the right thing to do.  Fingers crossed for the Euro tour....

    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
    Hopefully demand is still there and easy to sell if you don't want the ticket.  But would rather just have the refund if I don't want it.
    Well... if you have MSG... No reason to fret. Ill help you with that!

    I was largely impressed with the way people were handling this...then I found the pinned thread at the top of the page. Oh boy...
