    Just keep playing. And get a new sound engineer.

    Agreed.  I think keep playing is the best answer.  Never hang it up.

    I think fans would love to see...

    • An acoustic album / performance / tour
    • Lost Dogs 2

    my hope is they go the r.e.m. route and just announce they’re done. whoever happened to be at their last show wouldn’t know it was their last show at the time (and perhaps the band, too). no farewell tour or shows, they’re just done.

    My biggest PJ regret is not seeing them in Tokyo 2003. One of my favorite boots. I go there often and I should have put that together. Just keep playing and the faithful will come to the shows. Tertiary markets are probably not going to happen but you never know.

    The Pearl Jam YouTube page is pretty lackluster, I wish they would do what Goose and other bands do and post a performance or two from the previous night’s show. It would be cool to see official footage the next day of like Watt joining for Waiting For Stevie from MSG2 for example.

    Definitely agree with fan club only shows, Lost Dogs 2 and more Immagine In Cornice type releases. Could use more footage/interviews with Stone, Mike and Matt since Ed and Jeff have dominated lately.

    Whatever they want. 

    But…if they wanted my suggestion it would be to get in a room together and jam. And then just create, maybe while on tour. This could possibly work for the beginnings of another fantastic record. They all seem to do this with their other projects?  Just doesn’t seem like they want to get together and just have fun while making new music 🤷🏼‍♂️. I could be wrong of course.

    And also a big yes to a 10c tour where they could play more of their catalogue. Again, I hope they do what they want but I think it would be cool if they didn’t just become a legacy act like most bands do.

    Post on the forum. 

    Apparently, way the hell back in the early years, Eddie did. Some fan got all high and mighty and tried to "Pearl Jam splain" something or something...it turned him off.

    They had a chat room for a while. Mike was it in for a little bit one day.

    I'd love to see:

    a tour where the first set is acoustic like Benaroya and then the second set is electric
    They did this at the Gorge and it was amazing.

    A 10C only tour, everyone in 10C as of a certain date gets a total of 4 tickets to 1 how only.  Have to share ID to enter and can only attend 1 show, cannot trade tickets.  Small theaters, covers however long it takes, Acoustic set, electric set and then an audience request set......

    Will never happen... but would be terrific.

    I always thought a tour of:
    Night 1: Arena, ballpark, stadium, etc. --> Standard show, just like we're currently getting
    Night 2: Smaller theatre --> 10C only, deep cuts show 

    would do pretty well.

    I would like
    - A few more studio albums (Dark Matter was so good) and Lost Dogs 2
    - A proper U.K. tour (2000 was a very long time ago) or, preferably, a couple of fan club shows in the U.K. (and also a few in the US and Europe so most fans have access to a show)
    - Ideally return to Europe again next year
