I considered myself kind of a passive, casual fan of Neil Young. I knew the hits, liked him a bit, and then I caught his set at Farm Aid 2019. WOW! He was phenomenal. My girlfriend said that she wished she had used the restroom earlier during Dave and Tim, or during Cougar's set. She couldn't hold it for Neil's final song, and she didn't want to leave.
Cracks me up how this has morphed into NY involvement
I honestly don't think that's the case. I just wanted to encourage people to give Neil a chance. They might be surprised like I was. I would be willing to travel for a Neil/PJ show.
There is no way neil opens for pj, it would be the other way around.
If so, it'd be purely out of respect. Neil isn't near the draw PJ is.
I'd say Neil and Willie are pretty close in terms of stature and at pretty equal points in their career. When Willie has done shows with dmb, he's been the opener.
I saw neil young about 20+ years ago and the arena was sold out, but I'm guessing due to his age... that his target demographic might be aging out, so over time, probably less and less of a draw?

With all due respect to Neil Young, I would much prefer PJ play with a more youthful band to keep them on their toes and bring some energy to the overall show. But would much prefer An Evening with JUST Pearl Jam

If it is a NY - PJ co-headlining tour, would likely cut the number of shows I attend from 4-5 to 1-3

Would be interesting if all the gaps and off days are on account of an older, legendary co-headliner
Any insight here on if this is something that’s actually may happen or are you just wondering?
There’s a lot that would make more sense about the two night stands and the very limited run if that were to be the case.
The coheadliner that I think you reference has mentioned working with a couple of friends on a sustainable tour for 7 or 8 months as of Nov 2022 and was looking for summer venues earlier this year.
Perhaps they placed the holds and decided to go forward either way with or without coheadliner and are waiting for a yes/no from possible coheadliner.
curious if there’s anything more than theory here. Mine is strictly wondering out loud based on what’s known.
Zero actual insight. Just kicking ideas around while we twiddle our thumbs.
Nothing not already "known" and nothing past the second Austin show so far...
MGM Grand Arena is open the week in between Austin and Ohana.
Don't tease.
What about the Golden 1 Center?
They've got events on the 23rd and 27th.
As for Vegas though, I'd love to see them at the new MSG Sphere, but I don't think it'll be ready by then.
It wont be ready, U2 hasn’t even announced the dates yet of their shows yet cause they don’t even know if construction will be done by September
Opening October 6th for the Postcard from Earth 'movie' that was made for the sphere. Tickets already on sale via ticketmaster, but no official date for U2 yet. Sounds like the whole concept is struggling to find acts that want to invest in the process of making a show for the sphere's screens.

Thanks for clarifying. Either way it’s an interesting idea as a lot about it could line up to make sense including

This seems like a prime project for Tool
1,000%.
I was racking my brain to think of who it would appeal to…the Sphere that is.
Tool and Radiohead came to mind but likely not what the booking folks are looking for, lol

100% this conjecture about co-headliner is so strange. Lots of hot air in here today.

I’ve been trying to wish a short Vegas residency for Tool into existence since I first heard about that place.

So, if this theory does hold, and it is a co-headliner tour, would that make people more or less excited about going? I mean, much respect to Neil. But I know a lot of ppl who are just in it for Pearl Jam and want to get as much of them as they can.
I m not a Neil fan at all. I definitely wouldn’t travel to see a co headliner show.
The Neil/PJ You Are duet will be epic.
