In the announcement, didn’t they say something along the lines of, “This run of shows will conclude in Pittsburgh.”
Made me believe nothing is being added on at the end of this run. Seems odd they’d take a week off and then play a festival like Boston Calling.
Good recall.
"In continued support of their 3x GRAMMY-nominated album Dark Matter, Pearl Jam will be touring select U.S. cities in April and May 2025. The shows will start in Hollywood, FL on April 24 and 26 and conclude with performances in Pittsburgh, PA on May 16 and 18. Tour dates are listed below."
There's no reason they couldn't turn around and say "more dates have been added", but you're not wrong... the announcement in and of itself was pretty clear.
Based on their format, I would like to see: Red Rocks x2 (Think Hard Rock but this is an AXS venue) Kansas City x2 Milwaukee x2 Detroit x2 Toronto x2 Hartford x2 (Due: Cleveland, Buffalo, Houston, Montreal, Calgary)
Mexico City x2 Medellin or Bogota x2 Santiago x2 Buenos Aires x2 Brazil Festival/Date São Paulo x2 (Due: Lima, San José)

Artists that most people here have never heard of easily sell out Red Rocks for 2 shows. That would be an impossible ticket for PJ.
Yup lol
Red Rocks has a bigger capacity than the Hard Rock in Hollywood FL- ~9500. 2 or 3 nights run might not be as impossible as you think.
Red Rocks is a historic venue that many tens of thousands of PJ fans around the world would travel to to see PJ in. Hard Rock is an expensive hotel with a smaller than normal capacity that a lot of us have no interest in visiting.
This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

Really? You think a lot of fans have no interest in seeing them in one of the smallest rooms they’ve played?

Yes, very uninterested. It’s not going to be any more special of a show. You’ll get the 4-5 Dark Matter songs, a couple deep cuts, and the staples. Just like all the other Dark Matter shows
It’s not like the lollapalooza Vic show, or Benny Hall.

There's still something to seeing their standard show in a 7k theater vs an arena or larger. I don't think anyone is expecting a radically unique set.

Who said the setlist will be any more special? I’d love to see them in any venue that’s small. It’s been nothing but arenas and a ton of stadiums for a long time. This is a welcome change
Add the Borgata shows to the list. Hollywood is in Florida. Happy for the southeast fans but I will not go out of my way to be there. And I think Red Rocks is overrated and not an easy venue to get to. Recent shows have not been worth the traveling IMHO.

I went once for My Morning Jacket. Absolutely beautiful and glad I checked it off the list but I'm good with one and done.
If they are going to do 2 shows in each city pattern I really wish they would take the Metallica/DMB approach and not repeat anything.
I absolutely agree, but with the way PJ does ticketing/their demand, i see why they don’t. For Metallica most of the tickets sold are 2-day, so a majority of the audience is at both shows. While DMB are individual tickets, their two-fers are usually the destination weekends, and their demand is nowhere near PJ’s, so they know most of the audience is the same both nights-heck even for the Blossom/Pine Knob mid-week back to back this summer they didn’t repeat anything! For PJ, sure there’s some that are able to get into both shows, but i’d guess the vast majority are only getting into one. And while all us hardcore folks would be fine missing Even Flow or Alive or Black, etc, there are plenty of other people out there who would be upset at missing those for what could be the only PJ show they’re able to get tickets to.

But make them 10C members only shows. Also, you are only allowed tickets to 1 show, like MSG this year. More people can see them and tickets would end up in the hands of die hard fans, not scalpers.
RR is overrated and a pain in the ass to get in and out of. But for those 3 hours it’s worth it. I’d rather go to the Gorge again but RR is a 20 min drive for me. Also, the notion that we fight for seats at RR isn’t entirely true. Every show’s seating chart is different. GA can be the front, back, or the whole venue where you just try to get the best bench. The whole venue can be assigned seats which it was for The Strokes. The issue is people from the way top coming down to the trees on the sides to get closer but I don’t care because they’re not blocking my view. RR and AXS should pay them a shit load of money to do a non-LiveNation show.

I'd be more inclined to go to RR again if it was an all assigned seats show

I was there for the last two MMJ shows at RR. I do not need to go back. It's like when you see the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Joshua Tree, or Moab, ok beautiful place, lets go. Then it takes you hours to get back to the hotel or airBNB.

I was lucky enough to see them in 2004 at the now defunct <7K cap Deltaplex in Grand Rapids, and the only really special thing about that show was the thrill of successfully buying tickets. If you're close enough, it doesn't really matter what size the venue is. Also, the Deltaplex had maybe the most horrendous sound on the planet. I'm also just gonna state for the record that I'd much rather visit Red Rocks than Florida, but I'm sure it's a state of the art venue lol.

Moab and the area around it are absolutely breathtaking. I’d go all the time if I could. Agree about the others lol
Been watching the resale market for shows that I didn’t get through the club. Hoping the prices dip post Christmas. Still very high for first night Pittsburg, and ofc the Florida shows. Would love a second leg that includes Canada, and some easier destinations for us northerners. Fingers crossed for Europe as I’ve got to be there in July anyway 🤞
