    Multiple friends have texted me asking if Pearl Jam is done touring?
    anyone else?
    Are your friends interested in buying some waterfront property in Florida?

    They gotta eat… live octopus on a chartered yacht! (anyone watch Below Deck?)

    Hey whatever keeps the shows coming.

    Hope they keep going eventually playing tiny clubs so I can get some stuff signed.

    But the title of the thread says they are? Now I don’t know what to think.

    I'm into perpetuating this rumor just to see how long it takes Alternative Nation to write an article about it.

    My feeling is that as long as all the guys are still alive and healthy enough to do it, they won’t be done.

    They broke up after parting ways was released.  

    I recall this breakup like it was yesterday. It's terrible that they never got back together after that song came out. The depression was real. The depression is real.

    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    I feel like Pearl Jam tours as much as the person who wants to tour the least wants too.. lol.

    They seem at adjust to getting older by putting the shows back to pre-2013 lengths, and making sure they burn anyone one with overtouring.

    I tend to think this will probably let them go the distance in terms of years they can carry on as a band.

    I hate to break the news, but PJ is officially done as a band. I ran into Eddie at Burger King last night and he told me the news. He is going to become a professional checkers player. McCready is starting a White Lion cover band with Alex Van Halen. Jeff & Stone are going to be a professional tennis doubles team. And Matt is going to become a house painter.

    I had to sign an NDA preventing me from speaking about what he ordered. Sorry.

    Hahaha this is great. Gave me a smile on what's been a shitty day at work. Although I picture Ed as more of a Wendy's guy.

    That's why the NDA was required. Do you really think I'd make something like this up?????????????????

    Will merch be available for sale for their new endeavors? If so, where/when do the merch lines start?  ;)

    What a relief.  I thought for sure they had grown tired of an easy pay check and easy touring schedule, that helps provide compensation for numerous employees and funds for numerous charities (not even including providing for their families).

    Wonder if there will be any spicy locations in 2023?  Maybe Dimi knows.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.

    If being in a band was easy breezy effort and paycheck as you implied then any successful band would never break up. Clearly that is not the case.
