Pearl Jam North America - 2 Wrigley, 2 Fenway and 2 Safeco....Book it

PJ is working in conjunction with the Key Arena, and hasn't played any shows there since partnering. Why would they play Safeco?

Was the Key Arena project ever started?

To be honest, I'm not sure. And it seems like the articles reporting a partnership were a little misleading. It sounds more like a negotiation than something agreed upon. I haven't heard anything new since April. That being said, Kelly Curtis sits on an advisory board for Key Arena.

It's far from a done deal, and if it's gets done, it won't be done in time

Agreed. I could see them playing at least 3 shows at Key Arena on the next tour.

Last time there was supposed to be a second Key Arena show, but it never happened. I would really like to think they'd do Key Arena again, but I can totally see them doing Safeco field instead seeing as how they've done Wrigley and Fenway. I hope that's not the case because Foo Fighters are doing Safeco, and I specifically bought tickets this week for Portland instead so that I could get the smaller arena. It's a two hour drive for me, but it's worth it. Fingers crossed no Safeco Field for PJ.....Key Arena all the way!

I'm wondering if PJ is doing Lollapalooza Chicago in 2018. No evidence to support that idea, but it's been 11 years since they last played Grant Park. With the band performing at other Lollapaloozas in '18, and having just played Wrigley in '16, it seems possible. Festivals seem to hold a lot of allure, and PJ has played a few US fests twice since their last Lolla Chicago.

This what I keep saying.
Makes more sense than Wrigley in my opinion.

I'll go if they play anywhere around here...but I don't want to pay lolla prices to see PJ (and a short set that would come with it) and a bunch of other bands I have no interest in. I'd rather see PJ at Wrigley again and get a 3 hour show. Well actually Alpine would be the best, but that seems unlikely.

That could very well be true. The actual project seems to be about some sort of renovation, which would require funds. However, it takes fundraising to raise funds. Therefore, if their manager sits on the board, and their goal is to help raise funds for a renovation, and they're exploring a business relationship, I would guess that Pearl Jam plays the Key Arena if they play in town. Could be wrong.

Alpine will need a strong lineup in 2018 if they attempt a comeback after a full year off. Maybe it could happen!

^This^ plus 1-2 NA festivals when they get back from Europe, then a Fall 2018 arena tour in US and Canada.

Thinking through possible windows for Pearl Jam to do Wrigley again. Criteria being longer road trips, mid-to-late summer, with a few days around the weekend available.
June 22-25
July 12-15 (All Star game week)
July 28 (Foo's playing 29-30, not the 27th because they need at least a day for stage setup)
August 17-20
August 31-September 8 (Labor Day weekend, end of that stretch maybe not enough time to repair field)

Thanks for posting this. We know it won't be June or mid-July because of the rumored Europe dates.
My complete guess would be something like:
Safeco Field Aug 8-12 (two shows)
Wrigley Field Aug 17-20 (two shows)
Fenway Park Aug 31-Sep 3 (two shows)

I would probably go to Lolla, and i would probably hate it as much as I did last time. But this time, I would come late and sit on the side.

The "side" hill is gone. That's where we were in 2007. It's now occupied by VIP tents.

Please, no Lolla.

I'd think about Coachella with a few supporting dates between the weekend bookends. Isn't April a loose rumor?

Dimi already said that April had nothing to do with North America

From a spanish forum. Two days in Barca?

13.06 ~ Amsterdam Ziggo
14.06 ~ Amsterdam Ziggo
16.06 ~ Pinkpop
18.06 ~ London O2
19.06 ~ London O2
20.06 ~ Tv Promo
22.06 ~ Milan San Siro
24.06 ~ Bologna
26.06 ~ Rome Stadio Olimpico
1.07 ~ Prague
2.07 ~ Krakow
5.07 ~ Berlin Waldbühne
7.07 ~ Werchter
9.07 ~ Barcelona St. Jordi
10.07 ~ Barcelona St. Jordi
12.07 ~ Madrid (TBD)
14.07 ~ Lisbon NOS Festival

looks more like it with the dates in the same city being back to back but Prague and Krakow not having a day between seems odd do we think thats correct could be an issue for travelling ?

That's very feasible, Prague and Krakow are only 5-6 hours apart by car/truck. In 2014 they did Stockholm and then Oslo the next day, much harder logistically.....

He has already hinted at an album next year. Plus he said it's before August so April is not a lock which would makes sense for an album.
