    Promoter has cancelled and is offering refunds. Pearl Jam's official Twitter has retweeted the announcement. I don't think a show somewhere else tomorrow is realistic.
    They need to  transfer gear and all stuff travels tomorrow so build maracana stage

    Sorry for the people who came from all over the globle, many only for this show, I don't see any rescheduled thing, since the promoter already state how to get your refund, and what Dimi said...

    Sucks for travelers but really, really sucks for the locals who can't travel the world for Pearl Jam.

    Cancelado. Que tristeza.

    Yes, cancelled. Major let down, but beyond Pearl Jam's control. 
    I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream...
    If I knew where it was I would take you there.

    A local show tomorrow is not possible due to the distance and time needed to get the gear to Rio and set up. Tonight would be the only shot at something, which just seems near impossible from a logistics standpoint. Very sad situation, but out of anyone's control.

    Yes. It’s absolutely beautiful in Buenos Aires this afternoon. Perfect weather for a concert.

    Matt just posted this on Instagram. Really shows how bad the grounds were hit by the storm.

    I'm staying about 2 blocks from the Four Seasons in Buenos Aires and there are several hundred fans outside (been there all day), I guess waiting to catch a glimpse.  A little insane but as an outsider (USA) I love the passion :)

    Pearl Jam is the uncontested, unluckiest band in the world in terms of weather issues and concerts

    Wrigley 2013, Bonnaroo 2016, now this... I’m sure there have been others as well.  Just seems like every time they try to play an outdoors show, weather strikes
