Pearl Jam Ruoff Music Center Postponement

At this point just I wish they’d just reschedule it for next year or just cancel it and refund our money. We all have jobs and/or families to worry about and it’s not easy to make travel plans on short notice. I could possibly do a 9/24 make up date but no guarantees.

New tickets seem to be flooding the market now.  People must be worried more cancellations.  So unfortunate the band can't get through a 9 show tour.  Hope all is alright.

Anyone fight the hotel refunds and get one?  The Wyndham folks are being quite un-customer servicey and dying on their sword of “wasn’t our problem, no refunds”.  

I booked through Expedia and I think they’ll side with the customer, we’ll see.  

They refused to give me a refund.

Same here. I called from the road as soon as I got a notification that the show was postponed. They wouldn’t even consider it.

The problem is for people traveling. They are just betting on it won't happen or OK with the choice just in case. Then they are trying to sell their tickets. I am in that boat. I need to decide sometime today, or maybe tomorrow morning at the latest. Even if I have to eat the tickets, though, I would save a ton on traveling.

I know shows are in theory designed for the location they are booked, but so many people do travel. I wish they would make an announcement on if it is a go or not.

Well, Deaf Charlie (ft. J. Ament) is playing Ohana 10/1/23 as well.  These certainly seems to be incorrect.

Had totally forgotten about this part. Ed's fest and Jeff is booked.

yep...I missed that part

Doesn't seem logical anyway. Just odd that it is posted on there.

If this is because someone tested positive for what is now a mild common illness I'll be quite pissed. I could totally see it from these guys. 600miles drive and $200 for a hotel room. No guarantee they will ever make it back. 

If anyone was as sick as I was last week or my wife was in July from Covid there is no way they could perform. She was sicker than I've ever seen and I was down for the count for 3 days as well.

Whatever the case may be, an update 24 hours after the news would be welcomed by all having to decide about FW.  

Agreed. Keep hoping to get something more definitive before we fly out from Ottawa tomorrow. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Waited 25 years for this show... I'll wait some more. Hope the PJ gets well soon!

yeah, it hammered me a few months ago. I could barely move and I rarely ever get sick at all, let alone can't get out of bed sick. No way a band member could be out there 2 plus hours with what I had. These pricks that say shit like this are just entitled assholes that would still complain after because "the band sounded like shit" if they took the stage sick.

Someone somewhat reputable in the PJ Community just posted on a Facebook Group that he ran into Ed's guitar Tech Simon on a flight to FTW... for what it's worth.

The US Food and Drug Administration on Monday gave the green light to updated Covid-19 vaccine booster shots from Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech. The updated vaccines are each approved for people 12 and older and are authorized under emergency use for individuals 6 months through 11 years old. As part of the FDA’s update, the original bivalent Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccines are no longer authorized for use in the United States.

The shorter the tour, the more amplified a missed show is. If this was 35 dates or even just 20, one is almost expected for any big act at that point. 

But 9 to start and any dropped from that is wild.

I also saw him in an airport lounge in Prague last year and we all know how that ended. Fingers crossed though.

I’m not saying that 10/1 is for sure the makeup date, but for those stating it won’t happen because Eddie won’t leave Ohana, or Jeff plays Sunday don’t seem to take into account they had a last minute cancellation for a show that is going to be made up. They sold tickets and have an obligation to play the show, seems like a good enough reason to move Jeff’s side band to Friday at ohana and for Ed to leave ohana.

Speculation at a fever pitch here. No pun intended. Hoping for a quick recovery and to see PJ Monday and Tuesday!

I don't think a 10/1 makeup date will happen because it would mean retaining the entire touring crew for an extra 2 weeks after the tour was originally scheduled to end.
