    what are the radius rules for bonnaroo? i'm interested in what other shows this could effect?

    Atlanta 187 miles (rumored 4/15 date was taken at arena last week)... Lexington (275 miles) has to be safe... i think that 4/26 date is a lock... Columbia they played in 2008 so i'm sure that's good... Charlotte (379) has to be safe with any radius rules, but most people are saying it got dropped?? Raleigh has to be safe location wise... Florida is obviously solid... The Jazzfest rumor still has to be viable if legit...

    so MAYBE this scraps Atlanta? my question is what are they sneaking in to replace Nashville and possibly Atlanta? what is happening on Friday 4/15 Saturday 4/16 Sunday 4/17 now? they are playing at least one of those days

    basically, exactly what is the plan between Florida and Lexington??? that is the question... the Lexington 4/26 thru Canada part of the rumored schedule seems pretty solid with few expected surprises? but that stretch between Florida & Lexington is very interesting... Jazzfest seems very obvious but that's just one date... Columbia i'm guessing is still in there... Raleigh seems like it would still be in there

    this is a fun little distraction/hobby lol

    Email was forwarded to me, it's legit

    Yes, but is it 2 Legit?
    Pearl Jam is 2 Legit 2 Quit. I think?

    Ugh I can't believe I keep reading this thread once a day... What is wrong with me?
    That's it !! Just once....lol

    your doing great
    Well but look here I am for the 2nd time ha...

    I just think it would be hilarious if the tour ends up being COMPLETELY different than all the beat-to-death rumors... no Nashville, no Roo, no ballparks, and has dates that are totally different than everything we've been talking about for 2 months... Pearl Jam to open tour in Vegas, hit New Mexico, 4 cities in Texas, North Dakota, etc... :)
    I wouldn't be Surprised at this point.

    I wish I had some answers for you, I cannot confirm anything at this time, or anytime...lol

    Basically, I'm of no help. I have no inside info or friends with inside info. I'm in the dark here.

    sorry haha

    At least this would explain why the European tour was "cancelled" as the weekend of 'Roo is the weekend the European tour was scheduled to start in Amsterdam.

    It will be really interesting to see what else has changed.

  • Yea, I think it was a last minute Roo offer. So they will announce first half of 2016 at once which will include Roo and maybe another festival. Plus they can announce the possible Wrigley and Fenway at the same time.

    Man I really don't want to go to Roo and can't imagine that a lot will go just for PJ since there will be so many shows close by

    Might have to be careful with what is considered "close by" now. I recall Bonnaroo is pretty strict about dates and locations its headliners can play around that festival. That is what worries me about other potential southern dates, if this is true.
    Atlanta is the only show that is close to the Roo radius. The SC and KY shows are fine.

    In terms of logistics and coming back to TN in June makes 100% sense based on how much they will be paid by Roo to come back.

    I'm sure Bonnaroo, if true, made them an offer they could not refuse. I'm just disappointed if Nashville and Atlanta are out because of the festival. Were two of the shows I would have really liked to travel and see.
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...
  • Do people still think the original tour dates are staying in tact? I just kind of assumed if they are playing Bonnaroo in June that their plans would have changed, and the tour would have be re routed around Bonnaroo. Since I highly doubt they'll be on tour from April-June

    Jazzfest has yet to confirm lineup, they will do so in January.

    Just sayin'

    WOW!

    I've been saying since 2008 that I would not miss PJ at Roo again, but I think I'd have to this year with all the other planned/speculated/rumored dates.

    Starting to feel like PJ25 is going to be an extensive North American Tour (in lieu of a PJ20 style event).

    Spring-east coast/south and Canadian dates
    Summer-festivals/stadiums
    Fall-Midwest/West Coast and Canadian dates (remember Ed said that October is off limits going forward due to the Chicago Cubs baseball juggernaut...)

    I still think PJ plays Lolla for the festival's 25th anniversary. If that's the case, maybe they play a smaller venue in Chicago the same week like in '07. Osheaga makes sense too.

    300 mile radius withing 60 days before/after the festival weekend...

    interesting... I'm sure a major act like PJ has some wiggle room in negotiations though
