2015 Tour Rumors

[CopperTom]

From FB:
In light of recent events, I'm reposting this from our Wishlist Foundation Group for anyone interested.
Back in early September, Wishlist Foundation began working on developing a fan-sourced (crowd-sourced) campaign to raise enough money to host a Pearl Jam concert weekend on or around October 22, 2015 at the infamous Gorge Amphitheater in Gorge, WA.
Part 25th anniversary celebration, part thank you, part activism fan movement, Wishlist Foundation plans on rolling out this campaign between Christmas and New Years.
Today another crowd-source event was announced to bring the band to Forest Hills, NY that will last the next 88 days. Wishlist was approached by the organizer to work together via PM, at which point I informed him of our existing plans, offered to work together/include him in ours and genuinely wished him well when he politely declined.
Because our campaign will launch within the 88 days of the Forest Hills campaign, I thought it would be polite and in good community spirit to mention the Wishlist campaign in advance, as a preemptive attempt to dispel any potential negativity that Wishlist was trying to 'step on his toes or steal his thunder'. That isn't and won't be, our intent.
We realize people are now interested in our campaign, but we're not ready to release any details more specific than I posted here. When we announce, we want to make sure we do it right - with facts, specific goals, specific ticket expectations, rewards, etc. We're not going to have our hand forced because someone else in our PJ community is borrowing the same awesome idea from the Foo Fighters fans.
We LOVE the fan community. It is our family and has been for the last ten years. Myself, and all of us at Wishlist, genuinely believe that each and every fan can make a HUGE difference and a HUGE positive impact on the world, within our fan community and especially with each other.
We've seen it happen. Witnessed your generosity and extraordinary efforts.
Fan motivated and created events are how Wishlist started. We support lots of individual and smaller fan group related projects, causes and more. We've supported individuals and fans both publicly and quietly out of the public eye. I don't feel the need to list them - it's not about naming names to prove a point.
We're grassroots. We're volunteers. We're fans. We wish everyone who is trying to do a good thing the best of luck. It's how we believe the world should be.
"With my two hands, I can change the world"

This campaign never launched. I wonder what happened. I planned on backing.

Actually the rumor was 4 in Brazil plus the other SA stops. The month went from April to October to September to November. If no announcement on January 10, I think April is officially ruled out.

There's still Euro festival rumblings. Not much US festival hope except Firefly, but that's looking doubtful.

I don't think they're playing Europe this summer. They usually announced European tours December or January (since 2007 anyways) to coincide with European festivals. Most of those have been announced by now.

No rumors for North America? There's usually at least a show or two, even if it's festivals (see 2007, 2012),

Queens and Gorge via crowdsourcing are the only NA rumors.

So, nothing then

Because those have zero chance of happening.

Zero.

Zero.

The Wishlist one has a chance. Don't forget they have played shows because of mass request - Newcastle 2006 comes to mind.

I don't think I'd want to go to a show at the Gorge in late October. I'm not sure whoever proposed that date really thought that one through. By that time of year you could / probably would have nighttime temperatures in the 20s and 30s with high winds.

The Wishlist people posted "Save the date - second or third weekend of September 2016" a week or two ago. It's not happening this year.

It was on one of the Wishlist organizers personal Facebook accounts a week or two ago.

Having been to the forest hills tennis center many many years ago. i can't see them playing this place. it's a logistical nightmare and can't hold enough people. I could be wrong. I know they made some changes, I say just do it at Randalls Island or Citifield.

[CopperTom]

It seems unlikely to me, but Vanderbilt University is the new rumor. It holds 40k. Memphis didn't sell out last year. Nashville seems like an odd location for a destination event.

Nashville is a fun, cheap city but I don't think it would be a good spot for a big PJ show either.

Again. This all has zero chance of happening. I will wager any sum of money or humiliation on that fact.
