More shows!

There hasn't been an honest-to-goodness "tour" since 2006. A few shows here and there does NOT constitute a "tour". So you get everyone from all over the world trying to get tickets to each show.

A live band as popular as PJ should be playing 60+ shows every year. If they did that, there would almost NEVER be ticket problems.

    Oh yeah that makes sense, Pearl Jam should dilute their brand, travel all over the country and get in the red at the end of the tour... GREAT idea. :roll:

    Pearl Jam is not as popular as you think or wish they might be in certain parts of the country. Get over it.

    The MAIN thing that i would like to see change....

    Is how the shows/tour is announced....

    JUST ANNOUNCE EVERYTHING AT ONCE!!!!!! If it is possible(which I believe it is)..............
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    I agree... If we get like 5 more east coast dates announced in the next month I'm going to be pretty mad... mainly because I will be grasping for straws to make it possible for me to go to all 5 but also because I'm closer to Boston, NYC, Albany etc than I am to Philly.

    yes please.... then I wouldn't be headed out to Chicago knowing there are 3 show's within a 20min drive from my front door. Oh well now... I will enjoy any and all shows I get to.
