We could create a few new one with all the RMers that are going to be there, since we are all older, fatter, and balder at this point.

I'm fatter.

Well, I'm balder, so mix it all together and the archetypal pearl jam fan will surflace.

It's a sign. The thing was even 1/2 full.

Nope - cancelled

PEARL JAM STATEMENT

It is with deep consideration and much regret that we must cancel the Raleigh show in North Carolina on April 20th.

This will be upsetting to those who have tickets and you can be assured that we are equally frustrated by the situation.

The HB2 law that was recently passed is a despicable piece of legislation that encourages discrimination against an entire group of American citizens. The practical implications are expansive and its negative impact upon basic human rights is profound. We want America to be a place where no one can be turned away from a business because of who they love or fired from their job for who they are.

It is for this reason that we must take a stand against prejudice, along with other artists and businesses, and join those in North Carolina who are working to oppose HB2 and repair what is currently unacceptable.

We have communicated with local groups and will be providing them with funds to help facilitate progress on this issue.

In the meantime we will be watching with hope and waiting in line for a time when we can return.

Perhaps even celebrate.

With immense gratitude for your understanding,

Pearl Jam

It's their choice, and not surprising, but I feel they should have played and donated profits of the show to local causes, similar to what Mumford did.

Agreed.

Exactly. Let's see... how did Bruce fuck over hundreds of fans? Yeah. Let's do that and cancel two days beforehand.

That's another thing, the band (or at least management) knows the fans travel to see them.

I bet a lot of people were checking into their hotel rooms tomorrow. Too late to cancel those for a refund.

This is a bullshit move by PJ, Bruce, whoever else cancelled concerts.

It's not going to accomplish anything and it fucks over a ton of people who have gone out of their way logistically and financially to be there.

A rock concert and a law about who can use bathrooms are not related.

A much stronger statement would be made by performing at the event, speaking out about the issue to the 20k people in attendance, and like someone else said ... donating that shit-ton of money from the concert to go toward activism supporting the cause.
