    I’ll be happily shocked if they announce all the year’s dates. 

    All of this has been a stark reminder that it’s a business, it’s a business, it’s a business. Gotta think they’ll announce the fall after the spring tour. Like I said I’ll be happily shocked if that’s not the case though 

    I can see arguments for both sides of this. I think it's possible they announce everything all at once, for a couple of reasons. If the rescheduled dates are really going to be split between May and the fall, then it makes sense for them to announce all of those at once. If there are going to be new dates sprinkled in the May shows, then why not announce all of the new dates at once? I know a bunch of people returned their 2020 tickets, but I have to imagine more held on to them, so those shows are probably already well-sold, and new dates aren't going to affect them as much as some are claiming.

    All of that said, I get it - any effect is an effect. So, if you can convince people the only shows available to them are 10+ hours away, they'll buy tickets. Then, when you later announce more shows within a couple of hours, it feels like a bonus.
    For us, yes to a bonus - but I think the casual fan would only see them once on a tour.
    I never said I agreed with the delayed announcement tactic, or that I think it's necessary (personally, I think the shows will sell well either way), just that I can see where the idea comes from.

    The excitement on these last 2 pages will not compare to the disappointment that we will see come 1:05 EST if there is nothing announced today.  :#

    Ha somehow did not consider that they could just announce May shows (including say half of the 2020 shows) and leave the other half of the 2020 shows pending in the rumor mill for 4-5 more months or so. 

    That would be fun times. Hopefully we get a full slate whenever the announcement is.

    Well, Lady Gaga just announced her new dates, so clearly Pearl Jam’s happening real soon.

    One can only hope. 

    I would prefer the Garden over Worcester, but would take EITHER over Fenway at this point. (I can't believe it's been almost 6 years since I saw them in an arena)

    That would be madness  I really hope if they split up the makeup dates that they would announce everything at once. Yeesh you never know with this band

    Following up on my own comment - but of interest here.

    Tickets were just back on sale after the announcement (no presale, no Amex thing) just sales were re-activated for an existing event.

    ^ Gaga’s announcement was 3x the original dates, reannounced shows on sale immediately and new shows with a later onsale date. 

    Wouldn’t be surprised if we didn’t see something similar.

    Prices up more than 50% too I believe...not a surprise but probably cuts down on how many shows I can realistically go to if PJ does similar.

    EDIT - scratch that did a bad comparison...looks like Wrigley is same prices as a year ago

    Right? It would be chaos. There's no way they'd do that. Right?

    RIGHT??
