Out of curiosity, why is there such interest in full album shows? Have always appreciated the unpredictability of a PJ show. If you ever get a full album, it's something special precisely because EV felt something calling him to arrange it that way. I personally thought Weezer, for example, advertising they were doing a full album performance on their tour earlier this year was kinda tacky, but that's just me.0

Detroit in 2025?
I wouldn't give it a resounding yes, but I'm hearing things that could give optimism. North of 40% but south of 80%.
Keep in mind things could always change.
I wouldn't be surprised if they have 2-3 plans for any given month/leg, especially for the USA and that NHL/NBA playoff situations are a huge variable. (Toronto fucked them over, but whatchu gonna do?)
In 2010, the rumor was they had 2-3 different cities for May 6th. When the Columbus Bluejackets failed to make the playoffs, that opened up the date in Columbus. State College was apparently also scheduled that same day, as was some city in Texas. (That would have been interesting because May 7th was Noblesville and May 9th was Cleveland.)
If that rumor is true, maybe the Columbus date meant a show in Noblesville between 2003-2024 and a Cleveland date between 2006-current.
The easy fix is to do things before playoff unpredictability, but I don't think the band necessarily agrees.
If I had the chance to get paid to tour around Europe almost every summer...it'd be hard to pass that up. But it also sucks for the USA. That's a lot of time the USA is essentially in a blackout.
Typical times of when/where they tour.
Jan = off
Feb through April = Australia/NZ/South America
April through May = USA
June through July = Europe
August through September = Off or USA
October = Off
November = The same as Feb-April
December = Off
For having unpredictable setlists, the touring schedule is sort of the opposite.Post edited by Lost In Ohio onPresidential Advice from President-Elect Mike McCready: "Are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip?"0 -

I think it was a fun OTOTO for those cities that got them. But I don't think they could pull off the ones they haven't done yet unless it was a fanclub only show.0 -

I dig unpredictability too, but IMO there's also something cool about hearing the songs played in album order, the way we listen to the record at home... idk, maybe that's lame, but I enjoy it every now & again... wouldn't want to see it every time on every tour, but if it's an album I love, yeah... it's a fun novelty.

Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.0

I also paid about half the price for my Manchester green day ticket compared to my Manchester pearl jam one.The green day tour this year was fabulousCan confirm that that tour was great this year.

Green Day seems to always put on a good show. They are underrated and it is unbelievable to me that I first saw them 30 years ago, even before Pearl Jam. 100% agree that Pearl Jam records need to marinate through many listens to appreciate the songs. Dark Matter is a good record, and I am amazed they keep putting new material that I want to listen to. I also think the Earthlings record was superb. As far as 2025 goes, history tells us it could be a very light year for shows. No one really knows at this point. Let the tour finish, enjoy the holidays, and let's see what happens.0

And I hope everyone has amazing holidays. The "higher ups" are trying to keep everyone stressed and divided. No thanks. Let's relax, have fun, and enjoy life with loved ones.I'm spinning, oh-oh-oh I'm spinning0 -

Best thing you have said yet in this thread. Get outside, smell the leaves, the ocean, the city, and go for a walk, roast a turkey, a ham, a tofurkey, wherever you are. Invite friends and neighbors. There will be shows, but every weekend is an opportunity to enjoy what is around you.0 -
