    I mean Europe got tours in 2010 2012 2014 2018 and 2022 that’s not too bad I’ve been able to travel and see them since about 2009 moneywise for a few shows here and there and they have played for instance, Portland only twice 29, 2009 and 2013 and in general, the West Coast 2009 and 2013 and then sprinkle in the 2018 Seattle shows that’s about all they’ve done on the West Coast until 2021
    You can't really compare a whole continent against the West Coast of the US. But I don't want to get into a tit-for-tat who is worse off, I think we all agree we don't get enough shows!
    This is it exactly. 9 shows here, 7 shows there...we are arguing over scraps. No region has gotten the DMB/Gorge or Phish/MSG treatment.

    If they really take this year off, 2024 better be an overwhelming (at least for PJ standards) amount of dates. This keeps getting more depressing
    Pittsburgh 2013
    Cincinnati 2014
    Greenville 2016

    You ain't kidding... if you told me back in September of '18 that I wouldn't see Pearl Jam for at least 5 more years I would have laughed at the idea.

    Wake up this morning, and my wife is literally running around the house, giddy for Taylor tonight.  Reminds me of every time I've been blessed to see PJ. Man, I hope a tour happens this year.

    The first two signed mystery posters we've seen make it unlikely they were all together signing them in a studio. I didn't really think they were, but that suggestion has been made.

    Ontario also had 6 shows since 2013 
    (1 Hamilton, 2 ottawa and 3 Toronto) 
    add the 2 QC shows (2016, 2022) and that's all of Canada since 2013, no?
    Barrie - '98
    Toronto - '96, '00, '03, '05, '06, '16, '20, '22
    Ottawa - '16, '20, '22
    Hamilton - '20, '22

    Next year is an election year….

    So pretty likely to be a busy year (second half of the year, at least). 

    Sadly, doesn’t bode well for many shows this year. Certainly hope I’m wrong.

    Hard to say if that will have an impact. If you look at 2008, 2012 and 2016, outside of maybe the 2012 show in Missoula, it really doesn't look like they made this a priority 
    words seem so out of place.

    Second halves of recent election years:

    2022 - A short run of September shows, done by October
    2020 - Supposedly there were plans, but nothing was ever announced and it was wiped out by COVID
    2018 - A few summer shows, done by September
    2016 - A few summer shows, done by September
    2014 - An October run of shows
    2012 - Three September festivals, a Jon Tester benefit in Missoula, and an Oracle secret show in early October - Ed on the road in November and early December making up shows originally scheduled for May
    2010 - Two Bridge School dates in late October
    2008 - No Pearl Jam shows, Ed on the road in August

    Matt rumored to be Foos drummer on upcoming tour. That means nada for PJ in 2023. 
    While I love the Foo Fighters, I really hope MFC doesn't replace Taylor. It wouldn't necessarily mean no tour dates for PJ this year. But it would negate the rumored PJ September shows.

    Atom Willard is also supposedly filling in for FF.

    Matt kind of thrives on the intensity of it all. At Encore, he sat in with Brandi Carlisle, Joe Wong and NHC in addition to PJ. So wear and tear probably isn’t an issue. If Foo only has (16) shows fairly spaced out, with MC doing 12ish, the workaround for PJ shouldn’t be that big of a deal either.



    Although he did navigate Covid since then

    It would not negate that in my opinion.  There are only 4 FF dates in Sept., easy to work around, and the FF rumor is a rotation between MC and the other dude anyway.  
    PJ: 2013: London (ON); Buffalo; 2014: Cincinnati; 2016: Sunrise, Miami, Toronto 1-2, Wrigley 2; 2018: London (UK) 1, Milan, Padova, Sea 2, Wrigley 1-2, Fenway 1-2; 2021: SHN, Ohana, Ohana Encore 1-2; 2022: LA 1-2, Phx, Oak 1-2, Fresno, Copenhagen, Hyde Park 1-2; Quebec, Ottawa, Hamilton, Toronto; MSG, Camden, Nashville, Louisville, St. Louis, OKC; 2023: St. Paul 1-2, Chicago 1-2; Fort Worth 2; Austin 1-2; 2024:  Vancouver 1-2, LV 1-2, LA 1-2, Napa, Barcelona 1-2; Indy; Chicago 1-2; MSG 1-2; Philly 2; Boston 2; Ohana 1-2; 2025: FL 1-2, ATL 1-2, Nash 1-2, Pit 1-2.
     
    EV Solo: 2017 Louisville and Franklin, 2018 Ohana, 2019 Innings Fest, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Dublin and Ohana; 2021 Ohana Friday (from beach) and Saturday; 2022 Earthlings Newark; 2023 Innings Fest and Benoraya 1-2.

    Gutted:  London 2 2018, Sacramento 2022, Noblesville 2023

    Currently. And they're every weekend that month. With one of them having them out of the country on a weekend that PJ was rumored to be playing. So, while not impossible, highly unlikely.

    & who's to say MC would be doing the whole tour & not just the first leg or so?

    He might just be biting at the bit to get out on the road hence go out on the road with FF, we just don’t know the inner workings of this band or FF after all they are all friends,

    I was hanging my hat on that idea... What about the posters makes you say that?

    Maybe just maybe one of the band members doesn’t want to go touring until next year!
