The 2022 Gigaton Tour

[Birds in Hell]

This is shaping up exactly like their last few tours, Europe in the early summer, US baseball stadiums in August.

Australia: uh, maybe next time.

[Kevin Davis]

I hate to say it, but maybe bring back some songs that are easier in the vocal cords.

A run of Benaroya-like acoustic shows would be a dream come true for me at this point. The idea of going back to Wrigley to hear 90% of "Ten" and a half dozen covers seems...less exciting.

pearl jam sucks now

I don't mind stadium shows here and there. They just can't be the only shows they play in the states.

We should do a Pit-like campaign - they always work, right?

No you have to do what the Brazilians do. Just flood all social media with "please play Australia"

Don't forget the one Pearl Jam fan in Alaska.

Our internet isn't at that level yet - we can't all go online at the same time or it blocks the pipes or something.

What about if we all wrote letters to the 10 Club and asked nicely?

Dimi summary:

+ No 2020 shows in Finland.
+ Pearl Jam will be playing somewhere the weekend of June 26-28, but not in Gothenburg, Sweden.
+ Brexit could impact the tour. [I guess that means there is currently an England tour stop.]
+ 3 "spicy" (less toured) cities in a 5 day day stretch.
+ No city currently scheduled for multiple shows.
+ Not playing Stockholm's Globe Arena in 2020.
+ Announcement in December.
+ Sounds like no “night 2”s will be added later on.
+ No U.S. Spring Tour.
+ Many shows after Imola (?July 5?).
+ No 2020 shows in Ireland.
+ Berlin will get a show. It won’t be on June 30, though.
+ No show in Gdańsk or Warsaw.
+ Less logistically sound than usual - the next show might not be the next closest.
+ No Spain in 2020.
+ Not playing Glastonbury Festival.

Other rumors:

[CopperTom]

So based on everything that's floating around, I'd surmise:

June 16 to 19 - Tour Start - Netherlands
...
Vienna?
Berlin
Copenhagen?
June 26-28 - Stockholm Lollapalooza
...
July 2 or 3 - Rock Werchter
July 5 - Imola
July 7 - Eastern European Date
...
Łódź ?
Budapest?
July 18-19 - Paris Lollapalooza ?
British Summer Time Festival? - Tour End July 20ish

(I can confirm Rock Werchter)

[CopperTom]

Which date though?

[Angus]

Which date though?

Sorry, I don't know that. Was only told Werchter is on with announcement early December. Werchter + PJ announcements have taken place together before.

Would they play Roskilde Festival 20 years later? That would be crazy if that ever happened.

Roskilde - No. But, they might be playing in Denmark on or near June 30.
