California has 2 new shows that look like are going to have full sections of tickets available for "buy one, get one" on Groupon in a few weeks. Fresno I get, its hard to get there, but with Sacramento being so close to the Bay Area, that one should be selling much, much better, IMO.
Meanwhile MSG is selling Platinum seats in the thousands and Camden sold out immediately.
Pearl Jam has been an east coast band for awhile now. These results shouldn't shock anyone. And I dont say that it anyway as an insult to the people who live on the west coast/Seattle/Cali - but the demand is honestly probably exponentially higher on the east coast than the west, anyone looking at it objectively can admit to that.

They are doing two shows east of the Mississippi. Gonna be tough to offset all those square miles.
And Nashville. And Canada. And The Apollo.
I wouldn't count the Apollo show, as you can't buy tickets for it.
I'm not sure what I'm counting except the theater is, ya know, east of the Mississippi.
Sure. I think the better point I could have made was that the Apollo show doesn't add much to their footprint as it's in the same city they're playing the next night.

all good! I wasn't going to include it, and then figured some literal person (like myself) would have mentioned it.
I could maybe give them a pass for missing Nashville but forgetting our friends to the north?! Ha.
San Diego remains a great value. Score a pair, if you can make it.
Phoenix/Glendale moved some seats, but the California run seems to have settled.
some seats for Oakland N1 in sec 106 went from Platinum to VF/Standard pricing, so be sure to check those out.
Fresno & Sacramento already have the seats directly behind the stage closed off, and I think it might be a smart move for ASM, the Oakland Arena & band mgmt.to either close off the Oakland portion behind the stage, or offer up some "old school pricing" to the tune of $40-50 a ticket. Oakland N1 & N2 will not sell out otherwise. Might as well make some revenue from people on the fence, or at least block off that portion of the arena.
oh... Howdy, Kentucky

GA tickets for Louisville were a great value for Saturday. PJ, Greta Van Fleet, St. Vincent, Crowded House (you KNOW what's gonna happen), Cold War Kids, Elle King & Drive-By Truckers (fingers crossed for THAT to happen, too). They are sold out. As are VIP! Only weekend passes remain.
Let the speculation begin again for other festivals where they have (or Ed has) played before.
What will come first: a 2nd night announcement for ________, or Ohana 2022??

off the top of my head 9/1/00 maybe if i have to choose Animal. how do you choose between 98 and 00 runs? look at em. all the 2 night runs they did there are great.

Besides 2nd night possibles, where else might they add? Ohana right after Denver seems like it would be a lock. Then up to the great northwest? Seattle x4 would work.

@Lerxst1992 Do you think the demand is really there in Texas?
Not only is there demand, there is disposable income.
From the number of PJ license plates and paraphernalia i see around town and how well any rock-based shows sell in this city, it can't be worse than some of these other dates.
Houston is the 4th largest city in the country, with a suburban population that stretches half way to Dallas in the north and san Antonio in the west.. and they haven't been here in almost 20 years... The only time they came close was Ed's 2012 solo tour where Houston sold out the biggest venue of the entire tour on back to back nights...
I think your question is moot.
Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.
LA1&2 are the
only shows in May requiring VF code to buy available face value tickets. Why? Just trying to pump up the PJ Premium sales?
Yes, I would guess because those are the shows where demand is highest.

^ This X 100. They could easily do an entire tour in Texas and it would be much more profitable than California. More importantly, the fans here would actually get into the show and rock harder than the Coachella, self absorbed, selfie obsessed, so called fans of the left coast. Unfortunately, the band still hasn’t realized that everyone from the north has moved down here and it isn’t the same place from 1985.
I find it hard to believe that they are avoiding TX because of politics when they are playing in Oklahoma, a state that just banned abortion. Also, I'm a broken record about this but DC is as blue as can be, so blue the fuckers won't make us a state, and they haven't been here in 14 years
Bunch more PJ Premiums showed up today for LA2. Still no way to buy available face value tickets without VF code. Still no idea when F2F may start. Infuriating.

The irony being all the people who are still on the "waitlist" to get one.
