    Does make one wonder how the "olds", Springsteen and McCartney are able to tour without many issues and play 25+ song sets
    I get your point, but OTOH, they're 72 & 80 years old (respectively)

    How many other musicians their age are doing what they do? 

    It's no mystery if one accepts those guys are the (remarkable) exception as opposed to the norm.

    Ed's lost his voice twice.. shit happens.. let's not pretend it could never happen to others..


    I'm not saying it can't happen to others, just pointing out how older acts that you'd think would be more susceptible to similar things due to their age haven't canceled and play longer shows given their age

    Side note: the ladies shirts are ridiculously small cut this time. I have never in my life needed to buy anything in XL until yesterday and a friend couldn't buy any shirt she wanted because of that. But the men's shirts go up to several X's. Could we please get proper women's sizes on the (hopefully soon) next tour?

    I totally agree with that - I wanted to buy the white ladies shirt in Berlin in S, Merch lady accidentally gave me size M and after trying that on I have to say S would’ve been way too small. And I’m usually a XS/S 😅
    luckily the hoodie in S fits perfectly.


    and regarding Vienna: I am glad I made the decision to sell my ticket as it would’ve been too much traveling for me (and my bank account). Fingers crossed for the upcoming shows.. hope Eddie gets better soon.
    ... se key on. ;-)

    In hindsight, was it smart for Eddie to do a solo tour back in February knowing he was going on a US/EUROPEAN tour a few months later given his previous experience with his throat back in 2018?  Why squeeze that solo tour in before going on a tour that's been postponed for 2 yrs?

    Everyone aint keeping their voice when they get older. And some people sang it to shreds in the 80s.

    In hindsight, was it smart for Eddie to do a solo tour back in February knowing he was going on a US/EUROPEAN tour a few months later given his previous experience with his throat back in 2018?  Why squeeze that solo tour in before going on a tour that's been postponed for 2 yrs? 
    This is a question that will never be answered, but one that I will never stop wondering about. 
    I assume Ed was ready to go & other people in Pearl Jam weren't, but that's just like, my opinion, man. 
    Hindsight being 20/20 should have just waited and rested his voice instead of adding more stress on it

    Roger Waters played Boston about a week and a half ago and played 23 songs, he's 78yrs old, just saying PJ not playing at least 25 songs but these old dudes are seems odd 
    It's almost as if different people experience different circumstances & situations. 
    It's almost as if different people aren't learning from others to avoid situations such as this 

    What do you mean? 
    Maybe they can learn something from what Sir Paul did on his tour or maybe layoff off the cigarettes 

    I agree about the cigarettes, I'm sure the smoking over the years has taken its toll.

    I don't understand what they could have learned from McCartney though. He's playing shorter, and less challenging songs from a vocals standpoint. He's also in exceptionally great health for an 80 year old guy.

    I imagine he had a solo release to support and there was a window to play some shows before the EU tour. 

    Eddie said in 2018 ”this is the only time we ever had to cancel a show” so I would imagine he thinks his voice is stable enough. 

    Do the solo shows even matter in the context of what happened Paris? His voice has sounded like Eddie sounds on the tour. To my ear.

    My point is, why chance it? With covid and previous voice issues knowing full well PJ have a 2yr delayed tour to do, doesn't seem like it was a wise decision

    Yeah. Well IF there is a problem. It is what it is. You can’t rewind time. Dropping 6-10 songs a night seems to be a way to try to handle the workload of making the live act work in 2022.
