2021 US Summer Tour (was: 2021 North America Stadium Tour)

[Natalie]

My guess is both Europe and USA will get cancelled.
It might be still relatively contained in the States but it will eventually spread everywhere like fire over the next two months.
It is inevitable, you can't effectively ban people from travelling or going to their work etc...

[westcoast_junkie]

Yeah, my guess also...maybe they'll get more studio-time? Can we expect a tripple-album by the end of the year? 

[Oliver]

Pearl Jam just cancelled their tour...

I hope someone is looking very serious at what to do in that regard!

I'm sure it will be top priority after they wrap up the next tour leg.

Pearl Jam just cancelled their tour...

Actually it was the first leg and the spring dates. The virus, like the flu, pretty much does off in the summer so I doubt it will be much more than that.

I have a backup plan.  Who wouldn't want to be quarantined with GNR? 

Put the band in the rehearsal studio, play us some songs, talk a little bit about about the music.  I'm locked down at home.  I'd pay to watch that on the net, probably every show.  Up close and personal with GNR, everybody wants a chance at that.  Not paying VIP prices but I'd buy if the price was right.

How do you know the virus dies off in the summer? It hasn't been around for a summer yet! We're in un-chartered territory.

Sure - ideal! They could stream a concert for everyone to watch as part of it. At this point, that would seem the most sensible thing to do in my view.

Nice brainstorm - would be great

Pure speculation.

I like the idea. If this situation is a more long term thing... release the album and do something like this - playing the new stuff.

That's kind of the point though. We can't do any more than speculate, employ some models, and try to sleuth out how the virus may spread. In the meantime, seems pretty reasonable to push dates back.

I said "my guess is". And by the way Trump just banned all flights to/from Europe for 1 month 

[kyrie]

Costa Rica postponed. Brazil is banning public events.

"All flights to/from Europe" Not true at all.

It keeps the band active and pulling in some money.  Doesn't help all those businesses that were making money off the shows.  I probably wouldn't buy any merch.  A little something to get everybody through.

In some ways - as the crazier this virus situation gets - it would be almost fitting for them to drop something for us during

How would they move it?  Going to have to be net driven because going to the store is out. 

Going to be a lot of net activity if everybody is home.  Will we be nice to each other or are we going to kill each other with words?    Might get suicidal if my computer gets a virus. 

Just trying to keep my sense of humor through all of this, take care.
