Great, now they will never play the midwest or south.

More time in arena schedules for farm equipment trade shows and hard metal co-touring acts who turn the stage sideways because hey only 1500 tickets were sold anyways.

The Tool/Primus tour is going to be sick:

I guess we will get more Eric Church and Jason Aldean concerts.

Nothing like sitting on hay bales, drinking watery beer, and watching 60 year old members of Styx and REO Speedwagon get the trailer mamas all riled up.

If I'm reading everything right, Seattle is the next big bet to get an NBA team and possibly an NHL team. There are two major bids to make Key Arena into the proper destination for that (and music).

Pearl Jam threw their lot in with the group that is known for making concert venues top of the line (Madison Square Garden, The Forum). They get a semblance of control over the process and venue sound/acoustics in exchange for doing a residency in a building that improves life in their home city while keeping them closer to their families. I could see why they'd want to do this.

They would still do tours as well I think.

Cool. As an upper midwestern fan who doesn't get to see them that often (and who loves Seattle), this is totally the kind of thing I would plan a vacation around.

This sounds like a great idea. I really hope it works out. Hopefully will give them time to make records as well.

I'm a little surprised we don't see them pop up in smaller Seattle venues periodically, a la Live at the Showbox or that kind of thing. I suppose even back in the day, they mainly did that as warmups for bigger shows/tours.
