If tour hype annoys you, maybe just ignore it?  Not being a smartass, just saying the "Tour Rumors" Thread may not be the best place to kill time if it's not your jam. 

I'm indifferent. They're trying to generate buzz, but this cycle is probably a little overkill. That said, I get that they're having some fun with it. I've been on that side of the fence for (far less significant) releases and it's a good time teasing stuff out. 

 

This is fair. I too get a bit annoyed as I have a real life with real responsibilities like most of us here now. So having dates quickly when they are known is important for planning. I’m fact this announcement is already too late for me in many cases.  

But you are right, I still get all worked up and excited then bummed…then gotta step away a bit.

It’s supposed to be just fun.

Well the good news is there's only 15 mins left to wait   (nervous laugh)

There have been no new rumors the last few days so don’t know what hype they are trying to build at this point. Just getting annoying.

Pearl Jam Fan Circle of Life:

1. Tour announcement anxiety

2. 10C lottery anxiety

3. Only got picked for 2 shows need to buy 5 more anxiety

4. Pre-show merch and GA line anxiety

5. Post-tour online merch drop anxiety

6. Merch shipping anxiety

7. Go back to 1

The weird thing is much of it is easily avoided but alas, here we are.

Tour Pass - limited amount of tickets to the whole tour
Half Tour Pass - pre-select shows - limited amount of these passes
Ability to pre-purchase shirts/posters for 10c ticket holders to shows you hold tickets for.

Cures a lot of anxiety. Not much you can do about item 1 - they like to create internal 10c hype.  Meanwhile, the real world outside of 10c continues to make statements like "those guys are still around?"

Metallica has that Wherever I May Roam Pass or whatever it's called.

Pearl Jam could have the Drifting Pass. It'd be expensive as all hell PLUS an additional donation to Vitalogy Foundation, but it'd get early access to the pit even before regular GA.

Ohanas IG account was following 268 before, now it’s at 290. They just started following the Foo Fighters and the Killers

Dollars have never stopped the faithful before.  They won't today.

Always bet on a festival announcement being the Foo.

Hate to say it but if this is the only tour announcement I get today that's ok

Agreed. Great f'n news. 

Get there early for Battles; if you're not familiar, it's John Stanier's (Tomahawk) other band & they're fantastic.

Probably a safe bet that the Foos will headline one of nights at Ohana.

The Foo Fighters and the killers would definitely be headliners doesn’t leave much room for Eddie solo and Pearl Jam. Going to be interesting here in a few minutes

The_Giant_Midget

Also if the other headliners are the Killers and Foo Fighters, unsure where PJ fits in unless Ed is swapping his solo set for a full band
