They do it to stay relevant since they aren't producing radio hits. It costs about $100k for someone like Rihanna to make one song. Each member of PJ makes about this much per large concert. Since Pearl Jam (presumably) is still writing their own music and own the studio space, their cost is likely lower. These costs are also subsidized by distro deals like the one with Target.

Also, WTF are they doing? My sources in N&D tell me that Europe is going to be filled with fires and riots next summer, so unless they are playing somewhere truly special, like on the Athenian Acropolis
I highly doubt this... But if this ever happens, I'll save a spot for you mate

Awesome, so they play a weekend gig in Wisconsin, and that's the only U.S. tour until probably next August or later now? DEAR PEARL JAM, YOUR OWN COUNTRY LOVES YOU TOO
PJ resents the fact they are American or hadn't you noticed?
Also, WTF are they doing? My sources in N&D tell me that Europe is going to be filled with fires and riots next summer, so unless they are playing somewhere truly special, like on the Athenian Acropolis or the Amalfi coast or possibly Geneva, I may skip this one and let that blonde mullet wig wearing dude I see at every show enjoy it.
the the wig was retired after PJ20 .. i was there for the ceremony

I'd probably not go to Amsterdam. Just Werchter & Arras. But if you go, I go.

The Amsterdam Connection.
Chud, what are you going there for? Wedding?
Just a vacation. A few days in Amsterdam and a few days in another European destination.
Come to Dublin! Randall and I will get you drunk
We've actually had Ireland on the list but I think we're leaning towards Scotland now. I'm not making the decisions because it's not important to me. I'll have a great time at any destination.
