    please no ball parks. they suck.

    Given by what happened in New York, in the big markets like Chicago, you're stick with playing a small venue and people not getting tickets, or stadiums.  I suppose you could do football or mls stadiums instead of baseball stadiums.

    at least give the n.east the six arena shows that west got this time.

    anything else is a giant middle finger fro them to us.
    You mean like 2016 was for the west coast?

    I can count to six and don’t include SC nor FL as part of the 60 million of the N.east.

    Greenville and Columbia, SC are closer to NYC than Glendale, AZ is to Oakland. 

    So, the 6 shows the "west" got are (for New Yorkers--I believe you are one) about as far geographically the same spread as the four Canada shows and the two east coast shows this tour. And in 2016, New Yorkers had 13 shows within that same geographic spread as what you're calling the "west." Someone living in California had zero. Also, FYI: the population of California is ~40 million.

    Hoping for a Maine, New Hampshire & Vermont Pearl Jam experience this Fall.

    Being from NH this would be amazing and surprising but would be good with just 2 in Worcester.

    Let’s call LA the center of the population, the  closest equivalent to NY in the US. All six shows are within a 5 hour drive. 

    And NY has all people and cities and large towns between those five hours. LA has a lot  desert and mountain in between,

    last I heard deserts and mountains are not competing for tickets.

    Like I’ve said on other topics, Just discussing. You’re right , too much time. But disposition is playing on pandora now with its tremendous artwork. So it’s all good.

    If we want to talk about a band that REALLY dislikes traveling to N.east, it’s the author of that song.

    Calling LA the "center" is convenient for you and totally arbitrary. I'm calling NYC the center because (I believe) that's where you are. FWIW, the center of California's population is over 100 miles North of Los Angeles, and thus is farther from Glendale, AZ than NYC is from Toronto, Hamilton, and Ottawa.

    Apologies for the bickering. At this point, I'm more annoyed by the bad geography than I am by the New York entitlement. ;) I mean, you can't just treat Los Angeles and the Bay Area as some homogenous "west"--they're almost 400 miles apart. If they're the same area, then New York's area stretches into Quebec, Ontario, North Carolina, and Ohio!

    I would say a week or two out if the weather is cooperating people will make plans to hit those shows.

    I can't speak for the other poster, but I was thinking more of the direct flights. Eight hours...yeah, it's doable, but that's pretty hairy in March.

    We penciled in a September 19th wedding date yesterday, so Pearl Jam playing Boston that weekend is probably set in stone.

    Direct flights out of Newark aren’t cheap. Over $400 per person.

    I'm sure the 15-hour Greyhound ride from Newark to Ottawa (for only about $50 each way!) would be fun.
