    They were on the road for 3 years in support of Lightning Bolt. Rest up fellas'! Overdue and much deserved.

    Not touring for a year AND taking some time off doesn't sound good for a new album anytime soon.

    2015 - toured 3 out of 52 weeks
    2016 - toured 5 out of 52 weeks

    They must be exhausted.

    Not saying they have to tour. Their call. But not gonna agree that PJ tours so much they need a break. However much touring they do want to do is fine with me as any more and they would probably break up.

    lol. Exactly! Plus they just had seven months off!! How much time does someone need to rest up?

    I don't think it has much to do with rest. PJ is not their priority right now, and can't imagine the fire is there like it was 20 years ago for it.

    I've got my PJ concert streak going since 2003 though so I hope this doesn't mean it ends in 2017.

    good points bud.
    my current streak from 2008 seems to be in jeopardy. actually the only year I missed seeing pj live since '03 was '07.

    Maybe if we stopped buying all the merch they would play more shows.

    Its all of you peoples' fault.

    You bought all the dog collars, posters and socks.

    They don't have to tour.

    There goes my 7 year streak...... oh well, my wallet is grateful. I'm also glad I bought tickets for b2b Tool shows on Memorial Day weekend too, as of now that looks to be the biggest concert experience of 2017 for me.

    Hopefully we get some QOTSA & Tomahawk dates.

    Maybe TOTD will do a bigger tour in the fall.........

    Hope to see QOTSA this year and will definitely catch a few Nick Cave shows.

    If it's true I'm glad I put effort into seeing some shows last year. I rarely see shows in consecutive years. I usually see a burst every couple of years. Pemberton/Wrigley will keep me going for a while. See as I saw 3 shows last year, no biggie if I have to wait until next year to maybe get another show in Vancouver or Seattle.

    Technically I'll get to see 4-5 songs and maybe will go to Ohana.

    I didn't expect much this year, have been assuming we will get a new album in 2018.

    That being said I wouldn't take Chelios' comments as bible. If he's right they are of course subject to change. And there was still the rumor of late in the year that could still be in play depending on when he had the conversation. Was really hoping for that because it would be right around my 40th.

    My gut says he right but you never know.

    I do rarely complain about band decisions. I'm sort of an apologist most times.

    That being said my biggest gripe is the communication regarding touring. I don't even mind as much that when they know they are going to tour they usually keep it very close to the vest (although it would be nice to be able to plan trips better). But if they know they aren't touring for sure I just wish they would say it.

    I'm not sure I want to hear it from Ed's retired hockey player friend.

    Maybe that's why I haven't given up yet

    Hopefully this doesn't mark the beginning of the end. I still have a lot of songs I've yet to hear live.

    This post easily could have come 17 years prior from the Synergy board when the Binaural track list came out and "Parting Ways" was last.

    You mean when Pearl Jam was actually a band that was concerned with creating new music on a regular basis instead of just relying on their past catalogue to continue touring sporadically and to sell a bunch of merch?
