    I don't know if any of you guys follow any other bands as passionately as we  all do for pearl jam but when does it get to a point where they just cancel to many gigs.
    Like it's literally not even surprising anymore. Surely the band must know this and they can't be proud of it. 
    This. I follow and tour a lot of other bands. RHCP, QOTSA and TOOL most recently. Not a gig cancelled, not even close. Didn‘t worry at all for my several dozen shows over the last years. As with PJ? I fear commitments. Wouldn’t book any non-refundable.
    Springsteen, Stones, GnR, Aerosmith, Band of Horses, Jane’s, Uncle Neil, I can think of a ton of bands with cancellation issues in this timeframe. The 3 you picked not being impacted makes them look like the outliers to me.

    I hope this ends their desire to play the sphere in vegas.

    They have way too many cancellations of shows to expect fans to pay hundreds of dollars flying into a desert  and getting hotel rooms.
    I think The Sphere makes more sense than ever. A controlled environment may be what EV needs. 
    Desert air didn’t agree with him too well.

    Also, the Sphere is a cool engineering marvel, but it wasn’t that great a concert venue IMO. I’ll take the Kia Forum or similar for PJ.  
    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.

     Stone left to go hiking to get away from Vegas while they were there..he even said in an interview something like great thing about Vegas is leaving
  • Waking up today in London, coming to grips with the show being cancelled.

    However, I still am very very salty for the merch sales. Just gross to me.

    Post Covid there is always going to be a risk, traveling to see a band. Maybe people should plan their vacation, and seeing a band is a bonus, so if the show is canceled all isn’t lost. There are still great things to do when on vacation, local culture, food, drinks, museums, record stores, etc.
    I do this what you mentioned. Everytime when I am flying over the pond to the USA it makes only sense holidays + concert. You have to have a show cancellation  on your list.

    Woke up in a shitty mood.
    Heading to Berlin with very little hope of seeing a show.
    I am confident about barcelona though

    I haven’t gotten to listen to the Vegas shows yet (currently on Vancouver 2). Did he struggle in Vegas?

    I thought the views and sound at The Sphere were amazing. It felt like I was watching U2 in virtual reality. If PJ did a residency there I would hit as many as I could. The setlist variety may be tough though due to the screen. 
    Found: Soundgarden Hyde Park DVD (Thank you for the gift!)

    This is how it feels today



    I got 4 posters before the announcement for a gig that will NEVER happen. I’m a massive Spurs fan so this was my dream gig. They alienated fans with the pricing so don’t sell it out which in turn makes it uneconomical to reschedule 

    The naive fan in me thinks the band would care and find a way to do something for 10c members in London before they leave Europe. But they won’t. 
    Feel very empty today.

    Same boat.  Massive spurs fan.  And it’s shitty too there because the stadium tours were closed for the week for the 2 concerts.  At least I did the skywalk

    It’s a given a ‘stand up if you hate Tottenham’ chant would have started regardless. Rent free. 😂

    As far as your word. 
    Really it's how everyone explains your unique attitude and way of doing obviously lame things. Lots of love your local Arsenal fan
