For me, timing. No Code came straight out of left field. It was the day after Detroit, arguably their best show on the tour, then they one-upped it the next day. The surprise was part of the appeal. When they did Yield it was more of a 'they have already done this and should have left it with that' feel.
Per their twitter Q&A with Jeff and Kelly Curtis yesterday, they'll be touring extensively in 2016....will announce the first part after the new year...and their working on something special for the 25th anniversary

That is so awesome. This band continues to kick so much ### after all these years.

Rumors seem to be they are headlining Bonnaroo 2016. This would jeopardize any rumored April/May location within the Bonnaroo radius, including the Nashville show.
If the NYC dates hold true, I'll likely be in Rutherford, NJ for work that week. Hello, MSG.

And I was just about ready to book flights for FQ Fest. Now, I guess I'll wait a bit first. I really want a non-festival PJ show though.

My one PJ festival experience was a letdown compared to their actual concerts alone, but that's a hell of a lineup if accurate. :thinking:

Also Elvis Castello. I like to think it's an impersonator with broken arms.
Arlo Gunthrie sings 17 minute long 2nd amendment related protest tunes
What's the story with this thing, NO residents.. easy/cheap enough to get a hotel for a week?

lol, no idea. Will be there for sure, but to what extent can i organize anything compared to last time will depend on a lot of factors for me and friends (day, babysitters, etc)
Been to 20+ PJ shows. Worst one was Jazz Fest 2010. One of the best was Voodoo Fest 2014. Both in NOLA.
Easy, yes. Cheap - depends. Best to book now before the lineup gets released IMO provided you get 100% cancellation recovered.

So Jazzfest -- cramped, long lines for food/beer/port-o-potties? That's become the usual experience at our Music Midtown, and I doubt I'll go there again unless it's something epic like the Stones.

"In the meantime, he's keeping his day job in Pearl Jam, who just launched an American tour at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. "Our first show in New Orleans was a little shaky," he says. "We could have probably rehearsed a little more. The crowd seemed to love it though. I'm probably overanalyzing it. The second show in Kansas City was fantastic. Jeff Ament and I have been wanting to come back to the Midwest for a while because we've been neglecting it."

No, not at all. It's actually a great experience. One day last year there was a "perfect storm" situation. It had stormed all day Friday, so people stayed away. On Saturady, Elton John and Ed Sheeran were playing at the exact same time so it was literally jam packed (throw in all of the people who came Satuday to make up for Friday) and lots of mud.
That was the exception though and not the rule. There are plenty of port-o-potties and they have the beer lines down to a science. There are so many food options (with high quality food at good prices) it's ridiculous.
I highly recommend to any music fan. I'm a local and will typically go most days...it's that good

Jazz fest is the best music festival I've been to.
FYI just got a phone call last night from a buddy who lives down there and he was being super coy about something "hey man, I am sworn to secrecy.... But I just wanted to let you know you should plan on being at jazzfest this year. Someone you love may or may not be playing"
I laughed "pearl jam is playing"
"How did you know??!!! I didn't tell you!"
Sooooo apparently this is a done deal.

Fyi, PJ tweeted that a 2016 tour announcement was coming soon...make sure those fan club memberships are up to date.

Was up front for Elton John after the Jerry Lee Lewis set - decided to stay for the start and then head over to Jazz Tent to see Terrence Blanchard. Effin scary how crowded it was to get out of there.
The mud is not fun - but on great weather days it's a fantastic time. The amount of music you see is incredible. Food is first rate. And if you know the secrets about the bathrooms it's not bad at all.
Night shows are the bomb.

That's not confirmed yet. I think the original list will be fairly accurate though.

you have to wait until they announce the tour. Then put in for which shows you want. Chances are you wont get any. I didnt for five years.Eta: you got a membership to the fanclub right, not just sign up for the message boards

I paid $20 for the digital one. Do I need Analog? I'm in no rush for tickets. Just curious.

My buddy has alot of seniority and always gets tickets. We were discussing a road trip where we could possibly see P.J. and Dead and Co. I think Memphis or Stl. is about as far as I want to go.
seniority doesn't always = tickets by any means.
TU always used to say he only has one skill in life, and it's getting tickets via ten club to PJ shows

I've been lucky and have never been denied... and I have a crappy member number (430743) after letting my original membership lapse 20-odd years ago.
... however I've never tried for major market (philly, NY, etc) tickets... it's always been in smaller markets like Memphis, Knoxville, Nashville, Birmingham, St Louis, Charlotte, etc... markets with likely much less competition for tickets.

IF those end up being the dates, there's zero.zero percent chance that's NOT leg 1 of 2... Every date is east of the Mississippi.
