    October 22nd is a Friday…. Hmmm…

    Can see the headline now

    "We are excited to announce that Pearl Jam will be the first guests ever at Climate Pledge arena on October 22nd, which also marks 31 years since the bands first ever concert in Seattle.   We also celebrate the 30 year release of their landmark album Ten"

    That makes too much sense in my head, I’m rolling with that weekend.  Hotel booked Oct 21-25
    ^^Ditto. Done & Done. Guess I'll have to upload my vax info into the arrivecan app sooner than later. Glad I mastered snow driving last winter on the way up to the skihill! I've never entered the lotto before. Hope I get lucky!!!

    I hope you’re right.  I have a ticket for a show on 10/23 but I can either sell or eat it if Pearl Jam plays Seattle that weekend.
    My next PJ show will be 100 and I’m not going to SHN or Ohana.
    You see me empty, Sir, do not pause and inquire, simply assume and refill.

    vedpunk is one of a select few who have given accurate info time and time again. he alluded to sea shows in oct. he did say nothing was confirmed yet, but in the works. i would put my money on oct shows happening in sea, if his past hints are any indicator.

    I concur. Plus with the timing of the new arena opening up, it all makes sense.

    ISO 2 for all 3 nights and 2 more for the secret pre-show (i.e. The Vic in Chicago)

    2018 2020 at least if I remember correctly. It’s probably pretty easy to look up if you need more

    While some interviews can be taken with a grain of salt and things change fast with Covid does this interview sound like one that screams they care enough about opening up the refurbed arena and not about their thoughts on what can make a safe show? Maybe and hopefully they do it with certain safety regulations put in place now that others have been successful. This is Jeff awhile back on Variety


    Firing up the whole Pearl Jam organization for just two shows can’t be easy. Are there plans for any other touring this year?

    I don’t think there’s any way we’re going into arenas before the end of the year. I think we’ll wait to see how everything shakes out. We have so many fans that travel, and that’s the thing that freaks me out the most. You see how bad things are with COVID in South America right now and you think about 50 people getting on planes and coming to one of the upcoming shows. I would guess that a good portion of our fans are vaccinated, but some may not be, and some may be immune-compromised. The last thing we want to do is be a part of anybody getting really sick or dying. We’re going to take our time. It feels like playing Ohana and Sea.Hear.Now is a perfect way to get our feet wet. Both of those environments are going to be crazily celebratory and it’s going to be awesome. It’s going to be so awesome (laughs).

    i would believe vedpunk sooner than any interview. history doesnt lie, vedpunk has been on point, past interviews have been all over the map. theres safe shows and sporting events taking place all over the US right now. its time to move on. i know nothing, but i'll put my coin on vedpunk over jeff ament right now...

    I think Vedpunk had them playing ACL this year at one point.  Nonetheless I’m hopeful there is something to this one.

    For sure. A lot of us have been predicting multiple Seattle shows happening sometime this year. That Jeff interview killed a lot of that hope though for me. Interviews have been wrong in the past but this one with safety feels a bit different. Hope I am wrong and they do pull something like that off. 3 or 4 arena shows in Seattle is the exact scenario Jeff was worried about though. It would be a huge travel show from all over the world. I think we are ready but just felt the band was not yet. Also I know vedpunk has been right in the past. I am not questioning that.
