    Like I said twice yesterday only believe about 10% of what you read here :)

    You are right on...most of this stuff is bull shit. It would be great if PJ played Bonnaroo, but I'll believe it when I see it. People who have 'inside' sources and don't give any more information are full of crap...

    you got to fight it (or in the case of US ones, leg it) with every one else.

    which reminds me, I better start that running training I planned on!! Venice and Lollapalooza almost killed me! :(


    come on that run was great!! The star wars music and everything!! I was about 5th, my friend was first to the rail, he's fast though, i cant keep up haha.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Why do you hope they don't play Bonaroo? I'm not going even if they play there, I dont like festivals, but I'm just curious as to why you hope they don't play there?

    People are assuming Bonaroo after reading the blog because when Jeff gave that speech that was talked about last year on here at the University in Missoula he mentioned it himself that they would be playing Bonaroo, of course is no official confirmation from the band but that is the reason why many are assuming Bonaroo is the best bet as to announcements next week.

    I too hope they play other shows besides Bonaroo.

    Wait who said there was going to be an announcement next week? I won't be going anyways (broke college kid) but if they do tour I am planning on breaking my PJ Live virginity!

    I know you were not talking to me but.....
    You don't like festivals but you are questioning someone that doesn't like festivals?

    Bonaroo is that worst, I went the first year of it and granted it was probably much more unorganized the first year...but why would I want to sleep in a grass parking lot for three days in the hot sun or rain and watch PJ play there greatest hits for 1-1.5 hours with 200,000 other people....

    Lolla was better cuz i could go to the bar afterwards then home and sleep in my bed :)

    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks
  • That would be cool if they said "fuck the South" and just played Rochester 73 times.

    Bonnaroo is a fantastic blend of amazing music and great people. If the first year didn't grab you then... Different strokes for different folks but that first year was special. Last year was great and this year will be even better because of Pearl Jam. It's 80,000 people and Pearl Jam will play for 3 hours, like every other headliner at Bonnaroo.

    Actually, Bonnaroo headliners often play 3 hour sets.

    PJ--though I love 'em--don't have enough 'hits' to span that long of a set. They'd have to pull out some of their lesser-known catalog.

    My point was that, to the casual or un-interested music fan, Pearl Jam is mostly from a bygone era. People don't listen to them with the frequency we do, and therefore, don't consider them to have lots of 'hits'.

    I think ANY three-hour set from Pearl Jam is bound to be other-worldly. I just don't think every music fan would share that opinion.

    That's all.

    That wasn't my point....
    I dont like festivals... so I'm not going to go, but others like festivals so why would I hope for them not to have a venue to attend to in the near future such as Bonaroo...

    I'm hoping they play other cities so that I can have another option to see them on 2008...

    but that I dont like festivals doesnt mean that Im going to hope they dont play one...I don't know if my point is getting across though.. I'm sick and I think that what I'm writing doesnt really express what I'm thinking if that makes any sense....

    While even if they tell me PJ will play a solid 3 hours I still wouldn't go, I think that the assumption that because its a festival they will only play hits was debunked when they played Lolla and everyone thought the same thing and they were all pleasantly surprised..

    Way to keep your cool and re-explain what was a very clear post. To complain and think that Pearl Jam would play a hits show at a festival makes no sense. They might play a lot of their singles but not many people, as you said, know NAIS, Insignificance, Hail, Hail, I Am Mine or even GTF as far as I know. It will be amazing. I too hope they play some shows after. Maybe they will head out to Red Rocks. It's past time for that.
