Here's the thing...
They've worked on new songs.
They've got a couple dates planned in South America and I'd say its a safe bet they'll tour next year.
I think some people are getting their signals crossed with the band's time off, side projects, families (!!) and cut back on urgency. They don't need a new album every other year. They can tour when they wanna.
I can't stand being away from my own family for more than a few days - and when these cats tour, they travel for weeks on end with little to no time to see their loved ones. That's upsetting.
They're not going anywhere...

They didn't do much in '97, followed that up with an album and a tour. And they didn't do much '01-'02, then had an album and a tour. I think we're far from over.0

after all they've done and all they've gone through, you need more than what you have stated to account for saying it's over...
even this guy stated many things to account that this band ain't over, and I think he is falling short...djklambake wrote:Here's the thing...

I thought it was related to "the roll of the dice"...
however, you shouldn't change your ways, how we English as a Foreign Language students will learn to really talk? I learnt the grammar from Quirk and the phonetics from Gimson, my former workmates told me that sometimes I sound like a Harry Potter movie, since in Argentina are taught the RP variant of the language (the one spoken on BBC), but talking to people who speak the live language, we don't get that chance that often...

Everyone is entitled to their opinions but for the life of me I can't understand why people are thinking the band are about to split. They toured Europe this year, they've all got other things going on - Soundgarden, Brad, RNDM and Ed solo. They've always managed to combine Pearl Jam and the side stuff. Why is now any different? To be honest I was surprised they toured at all this year since they don't have a new album.
Yes they are slowing down in terms of size of tours and length of time between album releases but they've been at this 20 years, have no major label pressure now, all have families and they are all hitting 50. Clearly the guys still love being Pearl Jam but it doesn't have to be 24/7. They've earned the right do things on their terms.
Obviously each band is different, look at Bruce going on crazy world tours but again that is up to him. Each band is different.
Spare a thought for Rolling Stones fans who had to wait 5 years between them doing gigs. Imagine if Pearl Jam did that, their would be riots 2000: Manchester
2006: Dublin; Leeds; Arnhem
2007: London
2009: Manchester
2012: Manchester I & II : EV Manchester : Soundgarden Shepherds Bush
2013: Brad Manchester : Soundgarden Manchester
2014: Amsterdam I & II; Berlin; Leeds; Milton Keynes
2018: Berlin; London II; Boston II
