Live stream?

"BIG NEWS" in capital letters and in red color? That means a live streamed show. Donations go to the voting charity-thing. 

Too bad the text wasn't bold, then it would have meant Mirrorball 2.

These guys have cried wolf in the past.

That top 50 list seems a bit wacky.  DOTC #17 on all time PJ songs?  I mean, it's not bad but.......

Ha, plus Just Breathe, The Fixer, Sirens, Superblood Wolfmoon, and more ahead of songs like Release and Garden.  Really?

Interesting - Saturday 1pm eastern is the 10th at 10am Pacific.  I wonder if they will announce new dates for the NA shows.  It seems by now spring 21 is next to impossible given the vaccine timing so it would be reasonable to think there could be some fall 21 dates.  They already announced Europe dates for summer 21 and just added some London shows.  So why not put down some fall dates for NA, in addition to Ohana of course.

Hmmmm...

I doubt it's a tour. Remember in the past how we've basically known the dates before the big announcement?

Maybe they feel the need to release more shit when they loose touring money, so --

Times have changed!

The Euro 21 announcement in July came out of left field.

I feel like any tour announcements at this point are unreliable and non-events.  We don't know when we can do these things so no more hotels, flights, tickets, etc....holding our 4 seats to MSG and hopefully still have the trade formerly worked out for Baltimore pair whenever they determine they can reschedule those.

I know there are people itching to bring their 3 year olds to the shows, now, curse the virus or any people who do not think rock concerts are the place for kids.  (One poster told us recently that Pearl Jam is a FAMILY BAND.    )

My guess would also be a video release of one of the Philly 4 shows.  That would be pretty awesome.

If they release a dvd of the Spectrum shows i hope its 2003.   The best of the 5...

I’m with you on hesitating to spend new money on uncertain shows.  That said I would be happy to see new dates emerge for shows I previously purchased in order to start booking hotels.  As long as it’s not a non-refundable rate there is nothing to lose.  Odds are decent that fall 2021 can happen.  Technically they already have set two PJ and one EV dates for next Sept.  

Nonetheless, if there is any type of video availability of a classic Philly show I would not turn that down.

I believe Coachella announced yesterday that they were postponing until October 2021, so I'm not optimistic about any domestic shows next spring.

I wonder how much of that is about putting on a large festival and booking scores of bands and vendors vs. a couple bands going out on a traditional tour, even in larger venues. Not that either is simple, but it wouldn't surprise me if you can take more risks with the latter.

PJ30 HYPE

(as long as we are throwing out impossible ideas)

Isn't this the same radio station that trolled the fanbase a few years ago with that Eddie voice impersonator?

Yes but they are doing a pj weekend so this one is real.  Best guess something from Spectrum shows

I remain skeptical but if there is big news coming tomorrow, we might see some social media hints today.
