I know the South has a tendency to sux, but you have some really devoted fans in these areas. Music has turned to crap, and tickets are expensive these days - so that means (to me) that the only shows I go to are only those by my true favorites - and you are #1.
I dont know if makes any difference but I would appreciate some shows down here in NC. I am driving all the way to Camden in a couple of weeks but I would love to see them a few times this tour.
PLEASE come down South!

i can't reconcile the fact that this may be the final tour for some time, and even if not, that they wouldn't tour down here in support of this record.

Ya'll been to Birmingham the last two tours ... we can't help the weather (know it was freezing last time but hell, whatcha gonna do?), so "please, please, please, PLEEEAAASSEEE!!! Don't go on ME!!!!!!!!!"
Come see me ... or at least Atlanta, Memphis or Nashville.
I'm more than happy to sign this petition! I posted earlier about how awesome it would be for the boys to play at the Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa. However, I'd just as easily head north to KC or south to Dallas yet again to see Pearl Jam.
Please, guys, don't let all us Southerners down... *sigh*
"makes much more sense to live in the present tense"
I'd like to start by saying how much you guys have done for me and how much your music has helped me get through some really tough times in my life. Your music gives me a reason to wake up every morning and it inspires me to try my best at everything I do.
No matter how bad my day is going, the second I pop in one of the albums or one of the several live bootlegs in my collection, all my problems immediately disappear. When I hear Mike's breathtaking guitar solos, I am immediately in my "happy place" and nothing can touch me. It feels as if for those few minutes, I have suddenly been enveloped in a piece of heaven. It's safe to say that my collection of Pearl Jam albums is the only thing that got me through the upset that was the 2004 election.
With that said, I realize that the fanbase down here in Texas isn't as strong as elsewhere, and I understand if you feel reluctant to play here, believe me, I would be too. But I want to let you know that even though it's not like the East Coast, there are A LOT of fans down here like myself who would love nothing more than a chance to see you live and thank you in person for everything you have done for us.
If you bring the show, I promise that we'll bring the crowd, and a hell of a crowd at that!
Hope to see you soon,
Abhishek
bump...oh and, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come play the south!!

I saw the news on monday
it moved a thought in me
in the form of leaving out the south when
pj tours the USA
saw they left out the southern states and
I didn't recognize the names
could not stop staring at all
the shows on the east coast again
its a shame to awake in a world without live pj
what does it mean when politics have taken over
its the same everyday no shows to play
what can we say and how will we get to see them?
the whole south south over
its a red state suicide
the whole south south over
its a red state suicide
ticket stubs on a wooden mantle
dated from 2003
from the tour when pj played here
and we all came out to see
and in all the madness
avocado rocking airwaves
so much to talk about
and nowhere for us to see
its the same everyday and the dates dont change
tell you to wait while the tour is taking over
laying claim to take that Ament said
its hard still touring
we may be skipping out there
the whole south south over
