    If two Ed solo shows, not to mention a trip to Seattle and Vancouver,a trip to Flight to Mars this coming weekend, thirteen Pearl Jam concerts in 20 days in June, and a trip to see Green River in July is the slowest PJ year in six years, I'm loving slow!!

    realistically theyve been on the move since 2003.

    Or even 2001.

    are you nuts?

    there are tour dates, Mike has said that they you never know what can happen when asked about playing seattle this year. Ed has said that they are recording on one of his solo dates.

    in 07 they had 2 dates, which was really 1 with a fan club show.

    come on man...
    .... the US ain't the centre of the universe mate.. I saw them 14 times last year :p, 1 more than I'll see them this year (unless they play West of course :D)

    but otherwise, it is a dumb OP.
  • obviously you weren't a PJ fan in 1999.
    or even 96 thru 97
    Some people have religion I have Pearl Jam.


    no more shows
