Tour has been delayed since 2020. Official announcement from the band in November said they’d start their US tour in May 2022 and they’d announce the new dates in “early 2022.” No updates yet…

Apparently Eddie Vedder's solo tour was a test to see how a larger scale one would go and while it happened it didn't happen swimmingly. There were a lot of issues and apparently its possibly made them gunshy to commit to the next Pearl Jam tour. I definitely don't think its gonna happen in May like they've said. I think if we're lucky we might get it in the fall. I'm desperately waiting for them to get rescheduled as well but they seem like they don't mind being the last ones back on the road.

Eddie & pals may have missed the bus. It's going to be a tough year for rock stars as higher gas and food prices eat into our discretionary spending.

US gas prices are such a flashpoint. A lot of people get all up about whatever.. yet still continue with what they do. Starbucks is a great example. No one bats an eye about ridiculous coffee prices until... gas goes up.

Starbucks is not coffee.

Guess I'll most likely be paying scalper prices for the 9/11 NY show. NY is always a tough market for them and this was already sold out.

Aren’t they using anti-scalper methods on this tour?

Didn't know that was possible. There's $1,000 tickets listed on Stubhub for the show, but if there were any band that would do anti scalpers it would be Pearl Jam. Which is nice but also kinda unfortunate because between the PJ Fan Club, the Verified Fan stuff, and NY just in general being a really tough market, they only really put like 5 tickets up for actual sale to these shows. Its so hard to get tickets for them here, and they just don't tour often enough for me to feel the fan club is worth it to join.

Yeah. Can’t remember how exactly they do it. Every ticket in Nashville was $103 before fees during the sale. Only 4 are listed on StubHub. All over $1400. Usually a show like that has hundreds for sale on StubHub (StubHub has 130 Bob Dylan tickets available at the small Ryman for a sold out show one week from now, for reference). I am not in their fan club, I just joined the online sale back in 2019 or 2020 or whenever the hell it was and got 4 nosebleeds. That said, you might want to check and see if Ticketmaster is selling more tickets since they officially announced the new dates. I’m sure a few people have dropped their tickets since they bought them over 2 years ago. Good luck!

Interesting, had no idea. Good to know, thank you!

"Yellow Ledbetter" with Josh Arroyo

It's the anti resale policies that drive up the prices on whatever people can get to market.

But it didn't save the Forum show. I pretty much forgot this band existed (last seen them in Oct 1991) until I was clued into the price drops and ended up getting in for $26.

It was pretty good, at least they played enough of the songs I like off the first album and the newer stuff was OK.

Not much has convinced me Eddie isn't one of the dumbest singers alive however.

Yep. Cancelled, too, not postponed. That's unfortunate. Hopefully there will be no illnesses/snags for the September 16 and 17 shows. Get well soon boys!

I saw Pearl Jam as the warm up gig for a Winos gig New Years Eve believe it or not, was a bit wasted and can't remember much of it but think they were good.

I dont have a problem with Gas, a healthy colon is the key to success

Damn....deva vu with the Pearl Jam covid cancellations, along with other performances being affected such as the Eric Clapton postponements in Europe.
Cases on the rise in the US and elsewhere...hope everyone stays safe.
