Basically there are posts about other bands announcing tours, other bands cancelling shows, a few people going down the covid rabbit hole, and announcements of radio stations teasing a show, which is never PJ. I think the only unconfirmed valid rumor is that Baltimore may be postponed due to arena renovations.

Save yourself the time. You are missing nothing. 

Thanks and thanks.   Wasn’t sure if some new dates were all but confirmed.  

The thread you'll really want to pay attention to is the one where people that held onto tickets the entire time end up with worse seats than people that purchase after the second on sale. 

Or the thread if the $100 ticket is now a $1000 platinum ticket during the second on sale.

May is looking good COVID wise. Cases dropping on the east coast, plateauing in the Midwest…couple more weeks and the west coast will start dropping too. Hospitalizations look like they have peaked and will plateau in the next 30 days. Time to start dropping dates

I'm sure it's been posted some place here already, but sounds hopeful for plenty of touring ahead and a new album. 

In a recent interview with MOJO, Eddie Vedder revealed that Pearl Jam’s next album will be produced by Andrew Watt, the producer of Earthling, Vedder’s new album due out on February 11th.

“We’ll make a record with Andrew, I believe. We’re already talked about it. You know, the pandemic came right we were leaving for a tour on the Gigaton record,” Eddie said,“We had a lot of shows planned. Two-thirds of those shows were put on sale, even. So one thing we’ll be doing in 2022 in making good on promises to play those shows. Then, in between, I think we’ll be recording, because now we’ve got a strong, healthy ambition to do so.”
Eddie also added that Pearl Jam will play a lot for a year or two, pandemic permitting, and then slow down a bit and focus on recording their new studio album, the twelfth of their career.

I don’t recall ever seeing the 2/3 figure before.  That’s interesting as it implies at least 8 additional shows.

More than that factoring in Europe. More like 16-18 shows added on for the fall 2020 tour. What a year that would have been.

Tacit confirmation of the "states that couldn't get their electoral shit together in 2016" tour we heard rumors about.

Interesting that there are rumours of an east coast tour in the fall now. Wonder how many of those that were scheduled for fall 2020 are getting the axe if any. Some will be pushed till 2023 I suppose.

Rather than actual amounts of dates, I'm sure Ed was just speaking in general terms.  They had NA scheduled for early Spring, then Europe in Summer so that's the "2/3rds".

True but they were not just doing 8 shows in the fall. They had a full leg planned but ya 2 out of the 3 legs were already for sale.

May shows may go into June with Amsterdam being pushed to the end of the Europe tour.
MSG and Canada supposed to be in the fall now with an east coast tour. 
Baltimore likely canned or pushed to 2023.
Lolla South America show rumoured for early September but nothing aside from an insider on youtube pushing that one.

Is that everything?

I can never keep up..do they not play states where they disagree politically, or do they play states where they disagree politically to try to change politics in those states?

How are things looking in Ontario (numbers, hospitalizations/ICU, deaths)? I’m in Manitoba and things here seem to lag behind you guys by a couple weeks.

Yeah, I know we’re in the tour rumor thread and all, but LOL at the idea of expecting Eddie to be even close to precise with his numbers in a comment like this.
