    while yes March is still early 2022 I don't think any reasonable person thought it would be into March before an announcement.  
    Agreed and that's why it's not the band just being lazy with an announcement. They sent out the update in early November right before Omicron hit and somewhat upended things for two months. Thankfully that has subsided but it had to be a factor with the insurance coverage and commitments needed. They likely had a plan, were thrown a curveball again and had to reassess. The tour is happening in 2022 they just have to figure out when. 

    Maybe they should tell their fans that.
    Bingo! It’s not that hard. The lack of transparency is alienating a large portion of their fans. It’ll be interesting to see what the demand will be for these makeup dates.

    Guys we are a week or two away from knowing by default. We should all know May is happening. We all want better communication and no one likes waiting. Hopefully by Friday the hype train has begun!
    My man your continued positivity is an asset to the community and I commend you for it!
    I am not defending anything the band has done in the last two years with announcements and communication. It is so frustrating as a fan. Then again I do not have to plan out 30 shows or so during a pandemic with Omicron raging. 
    But then again....a lot of bands have done just that.  
    Absolutely and it is pretty frustrating to watch.

    Some have done it very successfully some have cancelled  or postponed multiple tours one after the other. If Pearl Jam announced new dates for the fall of 2020 like the Foo Fighters did would that of been better since they would not have happened? Then announced again for the spring of 2021 then cancelled again. How would traveling fans of felt about that? Again not defending at all as I feel like we could have easily had these dates in the US by now. Pearl Jam loves waiting till the last minute to finalize these tours it seems and its us fans that struggle with the planning cause of it.

    I understand the frustrations in this thread but we all need to take a deep breath and stop with the complaints. We're one day closer to this band,who has meant so much to so many of our lives, just saying they're done. They were putting together the tour we have been asking for and everything went to hell. If I have to get a refund after two years because something doesn't work for me, it is what it is. I'll find my way to a show somehow, somewhere, and it'll be just like the last time I saw them at Wrigley in 2018. They don't need the money. They are set for life. This is all icing on our cake. Be thankful, be patient.

    As long as people keep buying merch by the bucketload, they aren't going to worry about alienating fans. 10c is a member-based organization that has come to see its members only as customers. That always causes problems.

    Has there been any explanation/thinking behind why or how they rescheduled the full Europe tour and yet we're still waiting on US dates?

    I see where you’re coming from and don’t disagree, but everyone that purchased a ticket and has had their money held for over 2 years has the right to be upset and voice their concerns. Any other business that treated their customers like this wouldn’t survive.

    I would guess that the euro dates are always heavily scheduled around festival announcements and dates. This forces them to come out months in advance for that tour with the schedule.

    I can't wait for the threads of people complaining about the increased cost of possible new dates that will be sprinkled in among the 2 year old dates.

    "WTF, I have to pay $165/ticket now, for the same tour that was $120 2 years ago?, I'm done with the club...."

    Agreed but we are days or weeks away from knowing. The light at the end of the tunnel is here (not a huge fan of that saying ever since covid but it’s accurate here) and we just have to be a little more patient.

    That said people can complain and vent all they want but should know  this is not a situation where we are in the dark with what they have planned anymore.

    The real question is whether the refunded tickets will be sold at the 2020 price, or if they'll be current prices. Ticketmaster's involved, so I'm going to guess the latter.

    On a positive note, tickets are going to be easy to get if they wait any longer for a May tour.  They're going to have a hard time filling arenas so maybe they'll have to scale down to playing small sheds / larger theaters.  (Not much longer BTW)

    If there are new shows like has been rumored do they announce on a Monday? 10c has to leave lottery open for 3-4 days and public sale for shows are usually on Fridays. 

    So if they announce on a Monday probably public on sale doesn’t happen until the next Friday 11 days later. Just impatiently waiting like everyone else.

    I think it is because there are festivals on the Euro tour that they have to commit to a lot earlier than a tour with no festival dates.
  • Still trying to process how to feel about some dates being pushed to the fall. Especially if Nashville is included, which it sounds like it is. If they didn’t wait so damn long, they would have had no issues (Baltimore aside) making up the dates. The reshuffle is purely for their benefit, not the fans and thats a bummer. 

    The wait truly never seems to end sometimes. Hopefully I can make a May show work.
