Not sure. This question can be applied to several cities. If you check out the 2025 Tour Rumor thread, a lot "Pearl Jam hasn't played in <insert city> in <insert year number> many years" posts. But I'm not sure we know the answers as to why this is the case. Would have to ask the band.I'm spinning, oh-oh-oh I'm spinning0

To add to the inconvenience: unpredictable weather.
Majority of the fanbase has also likely aged out of camping.0 -
I guess, it was an epic trip for me back in the day. Tent in backpack, flew in, found a ride on this site, too beautiful to experience only once but i guess that's what makes it even more beautiful. Thanks all!I'm going to Lukin's0

DMB just recently played 3 shows at the Gorge last year: 08/30/2024, 08/31/2024, and 09/01/2024
If those fans can do it, then surely the Pearl Jam fans can pull it off.

It's close enough to Seattle, I consider it in the general area. There's also small towns within an hour drive on either side, so the last times I went to the gorge we hotel'd it (Which is way better in the hot summer).Last time I was at the Gorge was for Tom Petty in 2014. I would love a reason to go back. It's a mission to get there form here, but well worth it.I figured PJ would play it once and a while due to being in the Seattle market, but I guess not. Of course this sparks arguments about whether or not it's in the Seattle Market, but Seattle is the closest major population centre to it0

Yeah, I mean, I'm in Ontario Canada and would make that trip again in a heartbeat!

I'm gonna go with a completely sarcastic conspiracy theory:
Alpine Valley, Gorge, etc. are too far a drive to sell all that sweet merch for multiple days in advance of a show.0
