Didn't they start a tour in VA ( I think '00, or '99) They DO like us! Don't listen to the nay sayers! They want us to give up, so PJ will skip us for sure. Don't stop the thread!! We can get them back to the south! Keep up the BUMPS!!

It is quite disapointing they would skip the south. Even more so is they took a long time to come out and say it (although i guess they never really did) which left a lot of people hanging on hoping for a southern show so they would not have to spend hundreds of dollars on plane ticket, hotel, and concert ticket. By the time it was evident it would not happen many 10 club tickets were gone :(
I really wish they would have let out a complete tour schedule at one time. Perhaps there was a good reason why they didn't but i' can't think of one.
Pretty disapointing that on their "comback" album they would skip an entire section of the country.
sorry i had to vent this morning.

i had to look back through way too many pages to find my favorite threat, c'mon, let's re-kindle the flame into a roaring petition of southern pearl jam love muffins
I love to quote myself......... Not really, just want to get my point across.
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.
"So, you must really love Led Zeppelin. That’s the oldest shirt I’ve ever seen on someone who wasn’t a bum."
"Hey, if God didn’t want me to wear it so much, he wouldn’t have made them rock so hard."
I really wish people would stop WHINING in this thread. Let's bring it back to what it plainly is supposed to be.....
a BEGGING thread!
And in the spirit of the moment..... Please, oh please, oh please, oh please!
POR FAVOR ( that's southern too) Play the South!
Come on ya'll, let's keep this going!
(and I wasn't kidding about the whining - there's other threads for that, this one is filled with hope, rainbows, ponies and pretty colored balloons. Don't attempt to burst my bubble!)

I gave up on them coming here, so got in on the show they added in San Francisco and will travel to see them. However, I would damn sure go see them again here in Phoenix if they announced they were coming!
