    Loving the absence of Seattle. Please stay out this time around, hoping my seniority will actually produce favorable results this time.

    I don't often travel to shows out of my area, so the bulk of the shows I've seen are in Pacific Northwest as they are driveable.   I've only traveled to odd show because a friend was living in city at the time, or another friend convinced me to go because of a trip they were doing.

    I am travelling to see u2 this week, but definitely a budget :)

    No budget gigs for me make me think about bands rather than venues. Guess thinking of venues is a luxury of a band being from or having the biggest market in your country. I'd see PJ anywhere but would take logistics more into account-though iconic venues like MSG, Royal Albert Hall etc would be a rad cherry on top. Actually would prefer to see bands in cities I haven't seen a gig or even been to in the first place. Travel is my biggest passion but if I can combine it with music and sport that makes such cool memories and is a great excuse to go back to a city you love. Do I love Soundgarden? Yes. Do I love Berlin? Yes. Seeing Soundgarden in Berlin? Oh hell yes.  I've got a handful of bands I'd travel and have travelled to see (grunge big four, Tool, Rage, STP, Pumpkins) but weigh them up against distances. Would travel to Aussie and maybe Japan from NZ, anywhere in Europe from my other home in Ireland, and if I can swing a detour while travelling like Boston 2018 anywhere else.

    My dream place to see PJ is MSG without any doubt.

    For this upcoming tour im thinking of doing London,Berlin and Barcelona although i´ve been to all the cities before.

    If MSG wasnt such a hell to get tickets , i would gladly just do london and maybe add new york but its a nightmare to get tickets and i might be safe with berlin and barcelona instead

    Definitely Berlin; Frankfurt would be awesome for us, in 2022 it was only a 2 hour drive. Amsterdam would be great and Seattle would be a dream.

    Easy to have a "no budget" show, when you have to spend the money of fuel for a 2 hour drive. 

    THAT'S HOW YOU TRICK THE SYSTEM

    The Gorge is the only place I have an agreement with my wife that I can drop everything to go. 

    Would also love to do Buenos Aires and Seattle at some point. But at the moment, I'll likely see all UK shows and try to get to shows in different countries around Europe.

    In terms of European venues:
    A Roman amphitheatre like Verona in Italy or Pula in Croatia
    Royal Albert Hall in London

    And would also like to see them in countries they haven’t played at for years or ever eg
    Wales
    Scotland
    Croatia
    Slovenia
    Finland

    I don’t have a specific place I NEED to see Pearl Jam.  It’s more about getting to some cities I would like to visit and combine it with a Pearl Jam show.  My wife and I wanted to get to Nashville for a while and we held off hoping there would be a show there we could see as well. So in 2022 we made the trip, had a fabulous time sightseeing and saw Pearl Jam.  We haven’t figured out what’s next on the list so right now I’m just content to see them locally this year.
