thats what we've been saying since 2006 when announced the first batch of dates, its so freakin simple, just ask kelly curtis, are they playing the south at all this year? Fuck I would have done atleast 5 more shows last year than I did. I never thought I'd feel this way about the band, in 2003 everything just seemed perfect, they announced entire tours, not leg by leg. Yes this thread is becoming kinda negative, I'm only mad because I got so excited when I saw the post to "get your memberships up to date", and don't give an insight on what we are looking at. The majority of the fanclub are americans!
i have to agree here. why would they tell the entire club to be sure they're up to date when they knew the tour would only cater to 10 or 15%? marketing? trying to run up the memberships so they have more funds? i hate to be cynical, but it's getting very hard not to be....
They will play the south! and heres why:

It is soley business... the integrity that I so respected got lost (Yes, after the 2003 tour). I wonder if Pearl Jam members are finally feeling their wealth - or are contractually trapped in this loop of commericalism. I would hope it would be, at least a little bit, against their will.

You are leaving out a key issue here. What if they just don't know, and/or the US tour simply hasn't been decided yet? Perhaps there is no information to give.
Saw this in another thread. Don't know exactly who this poster is, but from reading comments in the past, the belief is that this guy is on the inside. He doesn't post very often, but tends to be correct with info or squashing of rumors. While the post doesn't say much, it does lead you to believe that their is still a legit chance for this year. Between this and the radio guy in Florida, it sounds like its something that could happen, but if it does it may be a bit later in the year. All we can do is hope, right?

Yeah, I saw that post too and couldn't decide if it was a reason to hope or not.
Doesn't anyone think they might play some gigs around the NW (Showbox?) to ramp up before Europe, then come back to the US- presumably the South? If you remember the last time the guys came here (2003) it was springtime and surprisingly cold and wet at many of the venues (see B'ham). If I'm PJ I'll be waiting for all these babies to come into the world then going back on the road- so hold on for something at the end of the year like 98.

Well, what it says to me is that it isn't a definative "NO they aren't playing". Its more of a "they can't make up their minds" or they want to hold off on pulling the trgger on any more shows. I think the band, which has the final say, has more control than ever and they just move at their own pace. There are some unknowns out there for some of them too with little ones on the way. I am surprised they are even doing Europe in June with all that going on. I kinda thought if they were doing any dates it woulda been before then and then maybe a few months later.
Hey Katrina-
If you're such a big fan, why haven't I seen any posts from you on the thread? I checked your history and you didn't start posting on the thread until the "announcement" of your "PJ party" up in Marietta. You never posted to get the boys to tour the south; you never bought any trees - you never even talked about PJ not touring the south until recently. What, do you own the restaurant where you're having the party?
This smells funny. If you were such a fan, you would have been posting on the thread with the rest of the faithful. Now all of a sudden you're all over the thread???
Sorry, there's something missing here.
This post makes me laugh. And is pretty much a prime example of why I *don't* post here. =D
I'm not sure what history you're looking at but I'm quite certain that I've posted here quite a few times prior to the party posts. But you're right...I don't come here often at all. But that doesn't mean that I'm not a valid part of the community. I didn't know your Synergy activity proved your loyalty. But I'm sure there are quite a few folks around here that will vouch for me. =D
Keeping this and all the other southern threads at the top till we hear some tour news for the south.

Touring Fan is your website? If so, the European dates are wrong. Sept 4th & 5th were both Lisbon.
There's a lot of things wrong with it, actually. =D With school and buying a house and actually touring..I didn't have much time to work on it this past year. I'm hoping to get the new design up soon.

Sweet. Well, here's to looking forward to being able to add more to it this year.
I have been out of town for a week with work and you can imagine the disappointment when I saw the news of the European tour. I don't know what to think anymore.
Seeing visions of falling up somehow.

I felt the same way when I heard the news, but the more I thought about it the more I think it is a good thing. Any touring or movement going on with the band is a good sign. Keep the faith! They won't forget us...I'm hoping for a handfull of dates in the south this spring before the Europe shows.

I'm impressed with your design/effort. It was always fun to track shows. I guess the GA Euorpean shows put a twist to it.
