We almost skipped Fenway 2 last year. Seattle had been a blast and the conversation became, "At these prices, do we really need to do both Fenway shows?" I didn't really need to do both. I had just started a new job and had no timeoff. It promised to be a late night followed by an early morning. It was unlikely that anything was going to top Seattle 2.

But then I started thinking, "What if?" What if something were to happen? To them. To me. What if Fenway 2 turned out to be the last chance I would ever get to see them? So we went to the show and I had the same great time I always do.

Now it's a year later, and they have not been onstage together since that night. I'm glad I went.

I agree $140 a ticket is not cheap as I balked at paying that for Beck and Cage last week.

But for premium PJ seats that is insanely cheap price and PJ charges way less what other top bands charge for premium seats.

The unfairness is charging nearly the same price for obstructed view and upper deck stadium seats as the first ten rows.

I think the big thing is ticket prices have really surged in the past few years. I thought paying $275 for right up front GNR tickets 3 years ago was mental, but right up from Rolling Stones tickets were 495 (if you could find a pair not marked as platinum). We went with side(ish) stage tickets that were 100 less, but that's mental. That was a once in a lifetime bucketlist kind of thing. No way I'd pay that a 2nd time.

While PJ prices have definitely gone up, they haven't gone up to the astronomical level other artists are charging. They're still "cheap" on comparison. The only thing PJ really has against it, is the oldschool way of charging the same price through the whole venue. The people up front are getting a bargain, while the people in the nosebleeds at the back are probably paying a little too much

I was made aware of a "Marketing meeting" regarding Pearl Jam at a location in MN last week by a friend of mine. Unfortunately he wasn't attending it, but it points to something in the works I'm guessing.

As long as they play a show in Minnesota, I would be happy. 356 pages and closing in on 11,000 responses. :-)

Works for a completely unrelated company to anything entertainment. The room they were in had the meeting listed next.

Now that is a classic source for a rumor! Love it!

He should have done a George Costanza and left a briefcase behind with a recorder going in it. And then came back later to retrieve the “forgotten” briefcase.

I think they will spread out at least to some swing states leading up to Trump's re-election.

Sounds good for me. Hit up the same 4 cities from 2016!

This map also describes the parts of Florida that contribute to the economy vs. the red ones that don't.

I'm not a registered voter and dropped social media a few years back to distance myself from all of the political banter, but the ignorance of this comment amazes me. The 2 party system is a joke and only creates this way of thinking. If you believe that one side over the other has our best interests in mind then you are doing exactly what they want you to do, picking a side and creating division. People cheer for their political party as if it was their favorite sports team. I wish people would wake up and see we are more alike than different, but when I see the brain washing our society imposes on itself by only rooting for their "side" it doesn't look very promising. I'll hope for a path towards unity in 2020, because our streets are overflowing with political sheep. A Pearl Jam tour would be icing on the cake. Peace and love.

Contributions to the Florida economy increased each year of the study, from $4.2 billion in 2015 to $4.4 billion in 2017. ... With a population of approximately 75,000 residents, the Florida Keys annually receive about three million overnight vacationers and more than 400,000 day visitors.
