The post are getting longer, maybe by the time we reach 1000 post someone will figure it out. Shows in the South will be cool lets set up some tour dates.
I'll accept a hey guys and girls in the south ( from the tour manager )we will see you next year for a tour only in the south.
I know most of you just like I can't wait to see them, but a concert near you will be better then no concert at all, even if you have to wait.
Maybe when they tour the south it will be like wine. A little wait for some aging and damn that sh@t is good.

Spoke to a guy who works for the band, he said they will definetly be down south in the spring. I live in Dallas and went to the Philly/DC Shows. Sign me up for the petition for sure.

maybe the audiences are getting a little bored with having pj in town so many times? including philly and all the nyc shows, plus four in jersey...what's that make? about 15?.....
you won't find that here. not in north carolina (for whom i can only speak, as i am an elder member of the contingency), and i'd bet not other places in the southeast, either...
i stopped bumping this thread for a while...some of the comments about red state blah blah blah has kinda turned me sour....like i'm starting to believe it...god, i hope it's not true....
but look, guys, band, 10c....seriously....you've got starved fans just waiting for the chance to appreciate you like none you've seen so far. the setlists have been killing us....please, stop wasting your time on big city audiences who pretend to worship you and start on some medium size places where we actually do and will show it....
or at least please tell us to get fucked if that's the case. the known is better than the unknown imagined....
florida needs a show!!! we won't sit down, we won't look board we'll be front and center rocking our asses off! we love you and the new album come treat us wiyh a live version of it!!! bump bump fukn bump!!!!!

I want to keep this thread alive so I am going to quote myself from a prior post. I have not bought one thing from PJ since the new album came out and will not buy a hat, t-shirt, bootleg, etc, until they play the south.
Boycott
Alright, I have to vent. I know my actions will mean very little to a rich band like PJ.
But, I am going to boycott buying another from Pearl Jam until they announce a tour in the South. Last tour I bought 10 bootlegs. I buy their new album every time one comes out. I own two copies of TEN. I own 3 bootlegs from the 2000 tour and several other bootlegs like Aussie Dynamos and Chapters. I will not buy one PJ bootleg from this tour. Their blatant skipping of the South has hit me on a personal note.
I live in Little Rock. The nearest destinations are 10-12 hours by car, one way, or an expensive plane ticket plus car rental. I cannot afford to travel to Chicago, Denver, Minneapolis, etc. I could afford to travel to Memphis, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, OKC, Austin, etc. They are shorter drives. I really would love to act like I have no responsibilities and just take a week off and travel and put myself into more debt. But, the reality is, I cannot afford to travel to any of the US destinations, Europe, or Australia.
I am personally offended by their actions. By the time they get to the South (2007?) the newness of the album will be well worn away and we will have to contend with those who have the money and just got to see PJ several times in the New England, Midwest, West Coast areas. By the time they get back to the states, everyone with a Ten Club membership or money to travel will pack stadiums in cities they would not go to otherwise.
I really enjoy the new album. Have several favorite songs. But, I will not give PJ another dollar until they show their fans in the South that they appreciate their patronage and will honor us with a live concert somewhere in several Southern cities.
I would love to see the outrage if their "world tour" was only played in Florida, Georgia, NC, SC, Texas, etc and they completely skipped NYC, Chicago, LA, etc. I could care less about the rumors of their frustration b/c shows were not sold out or several Southern states voted for GWB. But, that is nothing more than excuses.
BTW Pearl Jam. I voted for Clinton boths times, Gore, and then Kerry. But, I really do not give a crap if that makes you smile or makes you frown. It is a matter of self opinion, not a so called rumor or reason to skip cities with thousands of fans that want to appluade you and sing along.
Sorry, work has kept me from my most important task(s)......
