***Official Please Play The South Petition***

PearlJain

I think it's great that everyone "analizes" Pearl Jam - and everything that they did....or will do...based on their past moves and rationale. I also think it's equally as great that our band plays everywhere they possibly can - in order to make their fans happy. With that said - (NE People) - be happy for us (like we would be for you..... if we get more than Roo. It's obvious we all love them. And that is equally as true for us living here in the South!

Please play the South!!! (other than Bonnaroo!)

I'll believe it when i see it. Until then I'm not confident in a full tour. I'm thinking one show along with Roo.

I agree- but I have a weird feeling that we wont hear about it this week- it's going to be another Ed solo show in Seattle or ACL.

I hope everyone is okay in the Atlanta area after the storms yesterdays. You guys are all in my prayers.

play the south

play Florida

announce a southern tour

can't wait for Bonnaroo!!!!

I wonder if it's the same DJ that keeps saying this- we can only hope that this is true!

ok, here's some fuel for the fire.

spent the day with one of my sources. he says "i know they've been rehearsing this week. i just talked to my buddy X a couple of days ago and he's working the ed tour...i'll call him back and see what i can find out"....

jtr? can you confirm rehearsals?

Not PJ rehearsals. EV rehearsals? ["I refuse to play for an empty front row!"]. Stone is on his own material, but it has been a month since I e-mailed, so I will prod. Usually someone calls or e-mails me about an upcoming tour for a good reason, but I just haven't heard that at all. It is very possible that they are sitting together in parts going over some new writing and new ideas. I will ask.

I don't understand why all the cryptic shit. The acidic bird would be the crow logo for ACL, but why not just come out and say what you know? I don't trust the cryptic bullshit, do you?

Yes, you have to hate those vague, teasing, cryptic messages. It's borderline criminal isn't it?

i asked for clarification on "they". i said "the band"? he said "yeah". on the other hand, the stuff that's important to us isn't as important to these people. he was talking to a buddy on the phone,about non-pearl jam stuff for the most part, as you would talk to a friend of yours that you shared a career with. there might be some skip-through-it kinda work chat, but it's a small part of the conversation and not one that they get into deeply. the friend probably said something like "we've been in rehearsals all week", and my guy did the math in his head that it was the whole band and didn't bother with asking who exactly was in those rehearsals. and it's hard to ask someone to alter a personal conversation to suit your own needs. my friend is a guy i've known for over 25 years, but it's kinda awkward to press him too hard, and i don't want to ask him to press other friends of his who I don't know, if you see what i mean.

plus, there have been times when i've given him info he wasn't aware of, and he has taken it upon himself to ask the questions. i've had him get back to me after a couple of days about something i never asked him to ask about....

EV ought to be rehearsing - one hopes. Like learning his lines. The White Sox song at the Vic should have been an eye opener. Isn't it mind boggling how many songs he probably knows most of the words to?

LukinFan, how about that baseball game today? Looks like a gorgeous day to visit the old ballyard.

Feel better, LF! I didn't feel so well on Thursday and Friday either, but it's thankfully passed me by. If you have the energy you might try to go outside a get a little Florida sunshine. It may not cure you, but it's certainly not going to worsen your condition.

Perhaps we'll get that meet-up someday sooner than Bonnaroo (once you feel better).

which makes it that much more weird that he can't remember the words to wishlist to save his life...
