    Wrigley 2013 was an experience, but it did suck that they had to cut the set short, especially because when a set gets cut, it's always the rarities that go (fucking Other Side!?).

    They have a buffer for Saturday this time. I think if it's like last time, they would push the show until Sunday. That wasn't an option last time because there was another concert on Sunday.

    That's literally why I thought they left the one day gap for both stadium shows when they announced

    Have a (less expensive) feasible plan B after 2013's shitshow in summer northeast and Midwest unpredictable weather

    I'd be fine with that, but man that would suck for people traveling only for Night One and have to be back to work on Monday. Like the dude attending the first show with me.

    No chance of moving it back. I like how people think it's just a quick change on moving the date back one day.

    It's not optimal, but I don't see how it's impossible.

    Remember gang... It's not the rain or the wind... It's the lightning... If it pisses the whole show, it'll go down as one of the more epic shows Pearl Jam has ever played - like the Ice Bowl in Wisconsin all those years ago

    With outdoor shows, always a chance of rain during a Midwest summer. Bring a poncho along with shoes/clothes you don't mind getting wet or dirty and enjoy the show.

    Looks like the rain might be inevitable but the show will still be great. I doubt they stop the show like last time if it's just rain and no lightning. I just hope the set is nothing like 2013 at wrigley. I thought it was wayyyy to slow....especially after that 3 hour delay. They should've come out with some hits to bring the crowd back but instead it was pretty weak IMO. All the way, future days and some others that were brutal. I've seen them about 12 times now and I still think that was by far the "worst" set list they've ever played. I say worst loosely cuz they're all good. Even at their "worst" they kill it. Dying to see red mosquito, garden, alone, whipping, love reign, rats, immortality or indifference! Gonna be a great 2 shows provided the Lightning holds off.

    Well let me say I highly doubt they cancel the show unless of course lightning comes into play and yes they do have Sunday open but, I have to tell you I have 6th row dead center for Wilco on that night at Pritzker Pavillion which, by far is acoustically superior to Wrigley! I would have a very difficult decision on my hands and since I'm also going Monday at this moment I highly doubt I blow Wilco off for PJ!

    If there is lightning within six miles of the venue, they'll stop the show, until it moves through. As far as just rain, as long as it doesn't interfere with the band. Your going to have to enjoy a rainy show.

    Glad I'm only going Monday (weather looks clear as of now). 2013 was rough...in case of thunderstorms for show #1 (90% chance right now), maybe they'd move the show to Sunday?
    In that case I'd be looking for tickets for that as well since I'm flying in on Sunday morning

    Skilling says!

    Flood producing downpours possible. High temps in the middle 80s. Becoming partly cloudy at night. SW winds shift to the north by evening.

    Should be a fun day followed by an epic night!

    Then Monday looks like paradise:

    Mostly sunny with high temperatures in the middle to upper 70s with cooler readings along the lakefront.
    Fair skies overnight. Light winds become on-shore during the day then turn southerly at night.
