    Never needed a passport to see pearl jam. Although not seeing Budokan in 2003 is a life regret.

    Sometimes I wonder how much the band is involved in tour planning and management.

    The tour is planned for months now and they could have started with pretty much any option they want. So if they wanted to play Prague and Vienna to make up for the cancelled shows they could have. Easily.

    So someone made the concious decision to play Dublin and Manchester instead of Prague and Vienna. And I just do not get why.
    Also you need to remember that the U.K. and Germany have the most fans in Europe, primarily as the two largest countries, and have some of the best airport links. Around 68m in the U.K. and 83m in Germany vs around 10-20m in many of those countries mentioned. No different with other bands. Eg the vast majority of the recent QOTSA tour was in U.K. and Germany with just an odd few shows in Ireland and the BeNeLux countries. They skipped everywhere else. 
    And yet those smaller countrys (with les fans) sell out quicker than those 2 bigger ones. Funny how that works
    You need to stop taking this so personally my friend. You live close by to one of the biggest airports in the world. Get your passport out
    🤣
    My country is so small. Every time i step out the door i need my passport

    Your missing out. Travelling to New cities and seeing Pearl Jam shows is the best.

    I’d def do Camden instead of pjhawks said:
    Is Baltimore going to be Camden Yards or the Arena that they had to cancel after Covid?  Camden Yards would be cool
    I’d def do Camden and Fenway I’ll try for MSG but it’s not a must for me!

    Who is this Dimitris? I feel a strong urge to doubt his every word. 

    Good to hear from him.

    If the rumors are true, Pearl Jam will be playing in Spain the same week as the running of the bulls.

    Been trying to catch up on this thread. Thank you @darwinstheory for updating your OP! I know it's all still "rumors" at this point, but has it been discussed if it would be a "staggered" announcement? Would love to see them in WA or OR in May but also have tickets to Indy and want to do Wrigley again. 
    Would all dates be released at once? Or maybe Europe first, then the West Coast leg, and then the Midwest/East Coast shows? Hence, three separate lotteries? Just wondering from a priority pick standpoint.
    07/28/1992 - Cincinnati
    07/11/1998 - Las Vegas
    07/22/2006 - The Gorge
    04/26/2016 - Lexington
    08/08/2018 - Seattle
    08/10/2018 - Seattle
    08/20/2018 - Wrigley Field
    04/02/2020 - Nashville
    09/16/2022 - Nashville

    I did that in 2000.  Was insane but fun as hell.  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
