    I’m starting to worry about Philly, Dimi has never hinted at it even a bit, even when asked, plus that other guy mentioned 7 shows total, and with Dimi now hinting Montana that adds up perfectly for Seattle, Chicago, Boston and Montana. 
    That they would play Citizens Bank has always seemed a little weird to me. That's something you do when touring dozens of ballparks, not just playing a few shows. But...it's also kind of weird to me that they're playing Wrigley and Fenway again. So who knows? Stranger things have happened.
    I thought it was a good chance because it would attract a lot of east coast customers without really overlapping with Fenway too much. It may even be the fastest sellout of the bunch if Fenway would be the closest competition.

    Philly tickets are some of the hardest to get. They would definitely sell it out if they played at Citizens Bank park. I hope they do play Philly because it might lessen the lottery demand for other shows.

    Not might, it will. I know that my uncle and I are both entering for Seattle if there is no Philly.

    Man if it’s as small a venue as some are stating, tickets will be impossible to get.  Should be an exciting lottery!
    It is tiny.
    I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...

    I assume Montana is definite... even if they didn't tour they would play a show for Jon Tester... my guess is it would be a warmup before Safeco... 

    My question is i wonder if they would consider 2 shows in Missoula? I seriously doubt it, but that would make it more enticing to try for tix from the east coast

    If they don't play philly we may skip 2018 completely. Decisions, decisions

    I’m thinking the same thing. The more shows the better otherwise getting tickets will be very difficult. If Seattle is the only west coast show, it will also be extremely difficult. Hoping for a surprise venue like dodger stadium.

    I understand Eddie's affinity for Wrigley Field and if they are playing ballparks again the band obviously enjoyed 2016. But, with Alpine trying to relaunch after taking last year off, it would be cool if Pearl Jam made an appearance. That venue will always hold a special place in its history. And I'm saying this as someone who has never seen a show there.

    ^ Alpine Valley is a great venue.

    I love Alpine Valley. I saw so many amazing shows there when I was younger. It's kind of sad how it has died off. I think 3 things primarily have killed alpine off. More shows at Wrigley, more shows at Soldier Field, and when the amphitheater was built in Tinley Park. It's made it so there's an option for everything in or close to Chicago.

    The only thing I don't miss from Alpine is that horrible fog you usually have to drive through after shows.

    I think that was the original rumored number.

    Been lurking for awhile and while I don't want to contribute based on hearsay, a source close to the Phillies said nothing has been in the works. Hope I'm wrong but not looking good.

    Also, I believe Dimi said something about PJ playing "all 3 months of summer"--we know June and July already with Europe, plus rumored stadium dates in August, so it seems like Philly in mid-September would be out.
