    Ok - I'm a NY'er living in VA. I'd like to see PJ in the south. If PJ is touring next spring and summer, then they are booking it right now.

    I'm going to mail a letter to them on Oct 18th. it will say:

    "Please play the south"

    "Thanks, CJ in VA"


    If anyone else wants to make the same request, if we all mail it on the same date, then maybe they'll pay some attention.

    I've been a "just wait and see" advocate since day 1, but if Mike really said what that guy said he did (that they weren't playing the south because they don't sell well down there) then I'm jumping on the bandwagon now.

    Let's do it.

    oh and what day did you have in mind?

    If we build it up like crazy on this board, red mosquito, and any other big ones we should set a date a couple of weeks from now.
    Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

    Is kinda funny that I had the chance to see ALICE IN FREAKIN' CHAINS before being able to see Pearl Jam! (considering that AIC haven't toured in a decade and PJ are still together and touring!!!)
    :D PLEASE PLAY THE SOUTH!!! :D

    ^ def.

    Also spread the word the old fashioned way..

    lots of fans not on this board you know :p

    Here's another idea:

    Aussies help us out..

    hold up signs that say "Please play the American South!" at your shows! Get their attention!

    Are you going to play the South? I asked

    "No, we just don't sell very well down there, maybe in the future we can hook up with the Foo Fighters and go South"

    Any Seattle dates coming?
    "No, atleast nothing yet, but doesn't mean we won't do one in 6 months or something?

    Mike is about the nicest guy I have ever met!!!

    I just want to go BACK to the beginning and reiterate my CHIEF COMPLAINT about this whole play the South/not play the South situation.....

    HAD I KNOWN THAT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO PLAY THE SOUTH ON THIS TOUR, FOR WHATEVER REASON, I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT TICKETS TO ONE OF THE OTHER SHOWS ON THE TOUR AND TRAVELED TO SEE THEM. WHAT I AM UPSET ABOUT IS BEING LEFT IN THE DARK AND NOT BEING TOLD THAT THIS TOUR, UNLIKE PREVIOUS TOURS, WOULD NOT INCLUDE THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE UNITED STATES.

    So there :-p

    Despite what the other thread says that Mike said, we should continue to make noise and let them know how we feel. So Pearl Jam, PLAY THE SOUTH!!!! You can wait till it warms up, but we want to see you guys!!!!

    So there :-p

    I totally agree with you!
    Its really not fair for us in the South! and now they're not even gonna play here because of a few empty seats. Sounds to me PJ is getting a bit "G-R-E-E-D-Y"
