Does anyone here have insight into terrestrial radio playlists?

If Pearl Jam were planning to play a particular city in an upcoming tour, would they petition the local radio stations to increase airplay to sell tix?

Just wondering, as I feel like I've been hearing Pearl Jam on the local radio stations more frequently lately.  

Pearl Jam would not petition anyone. A record company would "work" the band to radio, but Pearl Jam doesn't have a record company anymore.

Pearl Jam has a record company: Monkeywrench

Why wouldn't they want to push their songs to radio ahead of a tour announcement? 

It's not a record company. It's a vanity label. They arrange distribution through a major, but they do not have dedicated people working their music to radio like they did when they were with Epic.

Have GA for Wednesday 2/7 and this morning I snagged a Red Zone for 2/10 on F2F. Hoping to find a good face value seat for 2/7 and drop the GA.

Also doing Wu-Tang on friday night. Just found out there's a $2,500 VIP package to play a hand of blackjack with "members" of the group lol

Enjoy those shows. A friend invited me along for GA VIP at the Sphere in early December but I couldn’t make it work on short notice. Gutted.

Now that we know the title, I am comfortable sharing that the proposed title I was told by Josh K. in June was Eclipse. He also mentioned that it was also discussed that they could do a show in or near Niagara Falls or Buffalo in connection with the solar eclipse on April 8, as that area is in the path of totality. He had the album artwork he suggested in connection with the title on his phone.

Oddly enough, I was on my way to an astronomy lecture when I ran into him. We talked a bit about astronomy. It turns out they went in a different astronomical direction.

Hotels in the Buffalo area have been booked up for months due to the eclipse. Traveling for a Pearl jam show would have been challenging for most. Too bad it didn't happen as I happen to be bringing my family there to experience the totality event.

Always have a backup plan for totality and check the forecast religiously as it approaches.  Clouds are a risk for sure.

The longer they went without announcing anything, the less likely I figured this theoretical show was because they were leaving no time for planning, which would be necessary for the reasons you allude to. Bear in mind that I was told about this seven months ago, and presumably it was something that had been discussed within the band prior to that, so they could have, in theory, put this on the table quite a while ago if it were actually going to to be a thing.

Sphere is tempting because I'd love to be able to say I was at the last Dead & Co show

As my friend said to me when we were at the Final Tour stop in San Francisco last summer “There’s no such thing as a last Dead show”.

The Sphere was good.   I did wonder, would bands still play it, even if they weren't going to do a residency, and it didn't make sense to spend the $$'s to make videos to fully utilize the screen?

The venue itself is amazing.   It was the most basic stage setup I've ever seen for U2.  A stage that looked like a turntable. Stage was reasonable size.  The venue is made for music.  All the seats face the stage, all the gear is built into the venue.  Sound is phenomenal.  Technically I think it would be a pretty good venue for concerts even if you didn't fully utilize the screen.    If it's nhl/nba arena vs sphere with limited use of the screen, sphere still wins.

that day at the studio of jimmy fallon show was one of the best things i ever experience in my life..
we was 30 pj fans and they put us behind the band...i could touch Matt head,was so close...
they played Mother from Pink floyd 3 times and then infront of us the band start talking which version they liked better so to keep for the show...that was wow to watch how everyone has a saying ..Mike was so funny saying i nailed ikt all 3 times keep any version u want..

Ole was played first time ever ,was very powerful..
and All night was super fun..
the stage manager of the show  change our potition after each song,so im different spots behind at every son
most cool part,i was wearing a shrt saying  "I SAW PEARL JAM " 
Eddie walks on stage,return back looks at me and says to me:
'I SAW YOUR SHIRT"
and then they start playing.

Great story

I had a dream that I woke up today and there was an email that said “Tour”.

Ah well, not the first dream that hasn’t come true!

If you haven’t booked your Vegas hotels and flights, you gotta book now

On top of PJ and EDC… Dead and Company just announced Sphere shows the same days/weekend

I come to the same realization every time I have a dream about Kate Upton.

Good call out.

Actually was $50 cheaper today compared to last week.  So that's a win.

This is would have been cool. Also understand now why you were vague.
