    Mumford and Sons did the Gentleman of the Road tour outside in Portland on the east promenade. That held 15,000 people. Pearl Jam would love Porland, ME as it is one of the best cities in New England (and I live outside shitty Hartford). They can also play two other great cities in New England (Burlington, VT and Portsmouth, NH (never played NH) ) or an entire NE tour while were at it.

    I'd love to see them at the State Theatre in Portland! I'd go anywhere in Maine to catch them though...and Augusta would be cool. I saw Phish in Augusta and the Civic Center turned into a giant beer garden for the show. 8-)

    Saw MMJ there a few summers ago, Phish last summer, and Arcade Fire this coming summer. Would be a great place to see PJ.
  • Portland would be pretty sweet. . . . I understand that lovely city voted to legalize the recreational use of a leafy green friend of mine.

    A home state show in Portland would be great! It sure would beat the 2 ½ hour drive to the Worcester show.

  • I posted this in the other Maine thread.

    They need to come back to Maine, was my first show and just to make my point I brought a sign to Worcester night 1, displayed it on the rail and Jeff looked and me and said, "you're right, we do need to come back." Lets hope that happens.

    Either Portland or Augusta would be much better than anywhere in the Boston area.

    I have a few acres of wooded bliss also, but to camp here, you would have to share space with raccoons, foxes, fishers & a black bear we named Hallie Beary.

    The guys from Seattle would feel right at home here - we get way too much rain during tourist season, and plaid & flannel were the official clothing of Maine way before it became popular by the whole Grunge phase.

    Isn’t Maine the leader in finding unique uses for duct tape? … like as an art medium, for vehicle repairs & for first aid
    And I think Maine is the only state where blue tarps are an acceptable form of roofing

    Us Maine-iacs are a bit odd & we may talk funny, but we sure do like our Pearl Jam, ayuh! Please come back to Maine!

  • i don't believe Portland or Augusta would happen unless they play on the Prom in Portland. or if they all of a sudden decide they don't want to keep selling out arenas and want to play places that hold less than 8,500 people (i realize they've done this before but not recently and/or often). I think The State Theater is completely out given if holds less than 2,000. the Prom and the Bangor Waterfront are the best two options IMO. oh, and Merrill Auditorium = Eddie Solo. . . .perfect venue for that

    How about an intimate show at the Criterion Theatre in Bar Harbor for restoring the venue to its former glory?

    It would have to be an acoustic show. I'm pretty sure that house of cards would cave if they went electric.
    I SAW PEARL JAM
