They need to play at a place like Alaska it would be a monumental show because it hasnt been done much.The Dead played the pyramids at Egypt and that show is historic.There has to be some kind of a venue in Anchorage.

Has any band ever played in Alaska? Other then local...

Also remember pot was legal in AK until 93 and it is on the ballot to be legalized every year. It would be one hell of a party!

Aren't drugs a federal crime? Thus making it illegal in all states?

yes, however the priority of controlling the drug problem can be different from state to state

Where did you hear this? It'd be nice, and I'm thinking it's about time PJ played more spots than Van, TO and MTL.. Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal would be a great little Canadian tour. And you might draw more fans out in excitement if you actually spent a little time in our great country, eh guys?

maybe if you could keep your baseball or NBA teams there you might get some concerts

LOL , wow interesting replies.

Am a transplant from the Chicago area. I now live in that so called ARM pit called Fairbanks. & Summer temps can easily reach the 90's .

You can have up to 4oz in your home. ( Don't get caught drinking & driving up here though )

Hawaii is the MOST expensive state in the United States , if they can play Hawaii Y not AK ?

The band grew up in the great North west. Whats the big deal ?

Lots of bands have toured thru here, they have Sullivan Arena in Anchorage. Where the Great Alaska Shootout NCAA Basketball Tourney is held every year.

I saw the band first play back at the Arragon Ballroom in 91 .. other then the 2003 concert i've seen them every time in Chiacgo. + Seattle. & 3x in Eurpoe in 2000.

Too expensive ? sounds like a copout excuse...

i just think it would be cool to see them play AK.

anyways thanks to all for replying..

OK , now that they announced the Canadian tour. Y not just pop on into the area for a quick hit on the dubie. & play a few tunes.. they can stay at my place & i'll even make them Breakfast ..

smokeabud · June 2005

maybe they can take all the extra Canada tour tix. & trade them in for a Concert in Anchorage sometime after the LAbor day weekend ?

aNiMaL · June 2005

I feel your campaign buddy...keep bumping your thread....I think it would be a sweet story if they played a gig in Alaska. What are you cooking for breakfast?

pearljammer · June 2005

Are there any outdoor venues in AK? Comfortable enough, if only in the summer months, for a concert? I've always thought it would be cool to see PJ play outside of the normal venue, like on a ski-hill or on a giant beach. Or near a glacier in Alaska.. That would rock!

smokeabud · June 2005

i know that in anchorage theres the Sullivan Areana. & Here in Fairbanks , they could do a gig at the University. or maybe some Farmer will be kind . LOL ..

you don't want an outdoor concert here in June or July. the mosquitos are a real Bitch... but once you hit mid August its sweet ! the bugs are gone for the most part. temps are still in the mid 70's to low 80's . the days are still 18 hours long !

as to breakfast , the meat eaters can enjoy some bacon , ham , or reindeer sausage with Pancakes. or Sour Dough freedom toast. plently of eggs & potatoes ..

for the vegans , or veggios , we have plently of fresh fruits , & nuts. & i'm sure i can pick up some sow milke !

LOL
