    4. 'Cos he dunna likey dayut Bush Feller.. *Cleatus laugh*
    5. Pearl Jam are against the dirty art of in-breeding
    6. Because Ed, Stone, Jeff and Mike don't know how to play the Banjo yet
    7. No venue carparks were big enough to accommodate all the trailers
    8. Pearl Jam saw the Pauly Shore Movie.. Son in Law, and were afraid they'd be attacked by "Inbreeeeders" with pitch forks!
    9. Because they don't like Grits
    10. The South blows!
    11. Pearl Jam DID play there but those darn southern yokels couldn't read the announcement

    14. They saw that old movie where the man was made to get down on all fours and squeal like a pig and it terrified them
    15. They couldn't take their loved ones to the concerts as the venues had a 'no animal policy' so there was a lack of demand
    16. "My Name is Earl" does not rate high in all the other US states so Pearl Jam made their decision based on that
    17. Pearl Jam wouldn't allow those with two heads to be facilitated on the 1 ticket, and unfortunately those people couldn't afford 2 tickets on their welfare payouts
    18. They are waiting untill they release their "Crunk" album next year.
    19. Ed wants to teach himself to play the washboard while blowing into the harmonica first
    20. The South wants no part in the preservation of Mr. Leatherback's family
    21. Because the south think 'conservation' is all about the art of making jam/jelly
    22. The South was billed to be on the 1st Leg of the US tour but the locals thought that because it was on Leg 1, then only amputees could attend, so demand wasn't sufficient enough to play
    23. dont even get me started.....

    29. They felt they did their part by playing at the Hurricane Katrina Benefit so in their eyes they didn't owe The South anything
    30. Because after the Bush Mask fiasco in 2003 Ed was told he wouldn't be allowed to wear his Ku Klux Klan suit
    31. Because there's shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried, there's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich.
    32. Because the band were disappointed after learning that their idol Britney Spears is a product of Louisiana trailer trash
    33. They realised that their hillbilly rock wasn't quite up to par

    Rather than being birthed like a normal child, Chuck Norris instead
    decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly thereafter
    he grew a beard.

    TOP 100 REASONS WHY PEARL JAM DIDN'T PLAY THE SOUTH

    1. Ed prefers wine rather than moonshine
    2. Just Because .....
    3. They thought "The South" meant "The Southern Hemisphere" so they went to Australia instead
    4. 'Cos he dunna likey dayut Bush Feller.. *Cleatus laugh*
    5. Pearl Jam are against the dirty art of in-breeding
    6. Because Ed, Stone, Jeff and Mike don't know how to play the Banjo yet
    7. No venue carparks were big enough to accommodate all the trailers
    8. Pearl Jam saw the Pauly Shore Movie.. Son in Law, and were afraid they'd be attacked by "Inbreeeeders" with pitch forks!
    9. Because they don't like Grits
    10. The South blows!
    11. Pearl Jam DID play there but those darn southern yokels couldn't read the announcement
    12. The boys had to wrestle Jethro from the Beverly Hillbillies before they could even book a venue... They declined!
    13. They had communication problems with venue managers as they couldnt understand what they were saying except for every second word being 'like'
    14. They saw that old movie where the man was made to get down on all fours and squeal like a pig and it terrified them
    15. They couldn't take their loved ones to the concerts as the venues had a 'no animal policy' so there was a lack of demand
    16. "My Name is Earl" does not rate high in all the other US states so Pearl Jam made their decision based on that
    17. Pearl Jam wouldn't allow those with two heads to be facilitated on the 1 ticket, and unfortunately those people couldn't afford 2 tickets on their welfare payouts
    18. They are waiting untill they release their "Crunk" album next year.
    19. Ed wants to teach himself to play the washboard while blowing into the harmonica first
    20. The South wants no part in the preservation of Mr. Leatherback's family
    21. Because the south think 'conservation' is all about the art of making jam/jelly
    22. The South was billed to be on the 1st Leg of the US tour but the locals thought that because it was on Leg 1, then only amputees could attend, so demand wasn't sufficient enough to play
    23. dont even get me started.....
    24. They wanted to see how many reasons we could come up with before admin stepped in
    25. Because they absolutely hate petitions to play in places
    26. 'Cos Mike's moisturising cream melts in their climate
    27. Because the humidity turns Ed and Boom's hair turn into afros
    28. Stone may get mistaken for a wild animal during his duck walk and may be hunted
    29. They felt they did their part by playing at the Hurricane Katrina Benefit so in their eyes they didn't owe The South anything
    30. Because after the Bush Mask fiasco in 2003 Ed was told he wouldn't be allowed to wear his Ku Klux Klan suit
    31. Because there's shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried, there's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich.
    32. Because the band were disappointed after learning that their idol Britney Spears is a product of Louisiana trailer trash
    33. They realised that their hillbilly rock wasn't quite up to par
    34. Because they are waiting for Road House 3 to be finished and will perform a week at the Double Deuce.
    35. It's Stone's fault... he's allergic to being that much closer to the Equator..
    36. Because Mike refuses to learn how to play the Fiddle
    37. Southern Fried Chicken is very oily and bad for them
    38. They were going to tour there so they could meet Colonel Sanders but found out he died in 1980, so they cancelled
    39. Ed was informed that a 'mullet' was essential if they were gonna play the south and he wasn't prepared to make that commitment
    40. The South wasn't big enough for both Pearl Jam and Chuck Norris
    41. Eddie can't wear flannel in that climate
    42. Kid Rock has the monopoly on music in The South
    43. Because no-one down there can ever spell Mississippi right
    44. Mmmm.....Arkansas or Athens? That's a hard choice to make

    46. Intimidated by the live shows of the Drive By Truckers
    47. They wern't to happy about serving raccoon on a stick for pre-show munchies
    48. They're waiting until Ed grows his beard long enough to look like Billy Gibbons of ZZTop
    49. They'd only get Trailer Trash Groupies
    50. There are no 10C members as Southerners refused to buy membership as there was no discount for producing their Social Security Cards
    51. For the same reason they never play Tasmania, they don't have Electricity down there
