2021 Tour Rumors - Let’s Go!!!!!!!!!!

Vedpunk knows his stuff.  I have no doubt ACL was on the table this year and changed last minute.  As for Seattle, the Obana Encore announcement seemed pretty definitive for the year.  I’m guessing they had Seattle penciled in but the uncertainty with indoor events changed their plans. 

PJ has actually been pretty good the last 15 years or so about announcing whether or not there will be more shows.  I remember in 2006 people were supper annoyed when they announced east coast, then a few weeks later announced the LA shows, and a few weeks after they announced the remaining west coast dates.  From memory:

2007 - announced Lollapalooza as the only US date, added Vic Theatre two weeks or so before the show.
2009 - people were again really upset when they announced those four Europe shows, then Toronto and Chicago, then Chicago 2.  At some point around the Toronto/Chicago ticket sale they announced it was their intention to play west coast shows in the fall.
2011 - announced PJ20 as the only US shows.
2012 - announced Missoula as PJs only headlining non festival show.
2013 - announced Voodoo Fest as part of a tour that would be announced later.
2015 - announced Global Citizen as the only US date of the year.

The years not listed above, 2008, 2010, 2014, 2016, 2018, all had shows announced in the first six months of the year so announcements about their plans for the year weren’t really warranted.  

Based on this track record it seems Obama Encore is it for 2021.

Solid research!

Bets leaning towards them canceling SHN or Ohana. Delta is surging. A friend of our oldest nearly died from it. She’s 8. Hope you all get your PJ, but I don’t see this trending towards better in the next 1-2 months.

Until MLB starts limiting or removing fans, I'd say there is nearly a 0% chance of anything being cancelled.

Please don’t put that out there.  It s been a long long 18 months for everyone.  I really think this virus is beat.

Wish that were true my friend. This variant is a dark, killing machine. It’s making the vaccinated VERY ill. Unless the numbers of vaccinated skyrocket in the next 3-4 months, it’s going to be another long year for us all. As a parent and caring human, all you all who have little kids, be super careful out there. Our friend was a vaccinated nurse and brought it back home and it nearly killed her daughter, shut down a weeks worth of summer school & infected scores of others (thankfully we were away off the grid when it happened). I do hope you all get to see live music again. I do. It’s a perilous time right now though. A virus mutates to survive and sadly the unvaccinated are allowing it to carry on, mutate & be a more efficient killer. Sending my VERY best to each and every one of you. Truly. I hope your shows go on and that nobody gets sick, or worse, dies. Kindly stepping away from the discussion now.

Please keep on topic!

I’ll say this.  In the last two days I was at a crowded outdoor place and a 25% capacity indoor place where mask usage was not the best in either case.  I was MUCH more comfortable in the outdoor setting despite there being tons more people at it.  I left the indoor one after only a short time even though I had a good mask.  

ComeToTX

Of the 164 million vaccinated Americans, less than 0.1% have been infected with the coronavirus, and 0.001% have died, according to data from the CDC. Take the data as a whole.

That is some serious fearmongering based on your own personal experience. 

According to the White House COVID-19 Task Force, severe breakthrough infections remain uncommon, and nearly all of the patients who are currently hospitalized with COVID-19 -- 97% -- are unvaccinated.

Bingo. Kindly stepping away for the 5th time in the last few months. Enough bro, got it. The end of the world Is nigh.

pledgeagrievance

Ahh more tour rumors. Can we rename this thread Covid argument 

TH113769

People who are vaccinated and scared of Covid better be more scared to leave their house or drive a car.  The fearmongering is ridiculous as the stats tell otherwise as cited above.  As for tour rumors for 2021, I have none, but my contacts are more connected to arenas for the rescheduled 2022 shows.

Feel free to drop some clues on 2022 dates.

It's 2 months away.  The COVID situation changes daily.  It looks like vax rates are spiking in the red states where the Trump-humpers were reluctant until Delta.

OceansJenny

I was going to say, Lolla is a go with hundreds of thousands of people. 

DM282158

Half of the country’s entire Population is fully vax’d. Almost 60% of those eligible. Latest CDC estimate is 1 out of 5 people have contracted COVID. There’s obviously some overlap there (count me as an example), but eventually the virus doesn’t have as many places to go. (Yes, it mutates, but still.). England experienced what we’re going through back in June. Numbers have since come down. 

tschav

Lolla is 5x capacity of Ohana. We got a few weeks before we know if that was super-spreader or a non-issue. Chicago’s starting to encourage masking indoors again as a general precaution.

Nice to finally have something to contribute show and hair wise. Not sure if the fan club has a ticket lottery for Obama's birthday party this weekend?

• Pearl Jam was set to play, and one local hairdresser had been retained to style the hair of a band member.

Yikes, it’s people with this level of fear driving the pandemic at this point. Last I checked 5 fully vaccinated Americans dying from Covid per day. Better chance of my ceiling fan falling and killing me on my way to the kitchen for dinner. The world has lost its collective mind and there’s no end in sight.

Sure, your fan isn’t going to fall on you…but what if every time you walked directly under your fan, a stranger somewhere got seriously ill or died? Would you still take the direct route to your kitchen every time, or would you maybe suffer some inconveniences? Would your answer change if you were assured that the people who would get sick or die were mostly jerks?

JimmyV

I get the frustration about these threads continuously turning into Covid discussions, but I don't see how we can possibly discuss what shows may or may not happen in the near future without discussing Covid.

lets kindly step away folks

Fall Out Boy just pulled out of Hella Mega tonight in NYC and tomorrow in Boston because a staff member has covid. I have a friend who is crushed (save the taunting).

A reminder everything can go as planned and then it doesn’t. So perhaps PJ is on the right path with limited shows this year.

I was supposed to see Soul Asylum tomorrow at a local club but they've rescheduled the first 7 shows to next year but the rest of the tour is still on, citing "logistical" reasons.  Don't think it's COVID because the tour is still on.

Also, any updates on PJ's random stop in Hartford?  Are they still friends with the local promoter there?

Boom there it is

Vaccine or Negative Test required for Sea.Hear.Now

Fully expecting a similar announcement for Ohana
