    2018 Fenway was WAY too long a wait.
    I've liked one opener in 25 years, Band of Horses.
    My Morning Jacket would like a word.

    Love opening bands.  
    I was introduced to two of my favourite bands, My Morning Jacket and Sleater-Kinney, by seeing them open for Pearl Jam. I'm with you: I love having an opener. (I'm also in what it'd imagine is the extreme minority in preferring slightly shorter Pearl Jam shows to marathon Pearl Jam shows, which is partly why I preferred Wrigley II to Wrigley I in 2018, but that's a whole other discussion...)

    If Wrigley/Fenway etc are happening in August, then they will probably be announced at the same time as the March-April arena shows.

    Could we see both EV and PJ both playing different nights at Ohana Festival this year?

    And we would have heard rumblings by now and not just a DJ and a ticket broker starting it.

    Yep. Ballpark announcements aren't usually any later than January.

    Another thing to mention regarding the ticket lottery is that if you strike out, you'll have an opportunity in the general sale and potentially another ticket drop after that.  For Fenway '18 TM dropped a ton of late tickets with much better seating than many of the 10C tickets already purchased.  Then people were grabbing the seat upgrade via TM and abandoning their "worse" 10C seating.  There will be opportunities for tickets.  Not sure why there's so much hand-wringing already.
    Again I think those stadium shows were much different in terms of how many fan club tickets were available. I wouldn't count on any pre-show drops happening for NYC or any other high-demand show. 
    Nah, they always drop. Even for MSG, although those are more cutthroat than most. IIRC last time around people were lining up at the box office first thing in the morning in order to catch a mid afternoon ticket drop. 
    Last MSG show I think a total of 12 tickets were released to people on line waiting outside the venue...

    Not at all.  People lined up for hours and they released 12 pairs of tix.

    Wrigley has some openings, could do August 8th & 10th, the Cubs have a decent stretch of away games around then. I'm not crazy about more Wrigley shows, but I don't mind a 3 hour drive and it'll be a nice birthday gift to myself.

    I've enjoyed most of the opening bands through the years...who didn't LOVE Mudhoney?? or Iggy Pop?? Kings of Leon.....Band of Horses was fun. ....whatever makes Pearl Jam happy....if PJ gets PUMPED by the opening band, they 're already having fun....Happy Pearl Jam = Happy show! ....however, there's one condition.... if there's an opening band, it should be at a curfew-free venue.....there's my 2 cents
    PEARL JAM in 2024! Dark Matter and MORE ! THANK YOU!!   
    Peace Love & Pearl Jam forever!!

    With or without an opener, you aren’t getting more pearl jam.
