Ok...the lowdown...
Tour? You want a Pearl Jam tour? Pearl Jam will finally be touring the U.S. this summer, most likely June and August. The specific cities and states aren't available yet...details are still being worked out with non-Ticketmaster venues. There were many questions about how to get tickets and we can tell you that as of now, the ticket distribution plans are still being hashed out. The band is well aware of the problems with mail-order distribution situations. The Ten Club will let people know how to get tickets at the appropriate time.We will most likely be jammin' to Pearl Jam in big outdoor fields during the weekends and smaller shed-like venues during the week. We can expect the band to play something like a 30 - 40 city tour, but like we said, nothing is written in STONE yet. There are no immediate plans to go to Europe at this time.
There are no TV appearances planned at the moment but we can expect Pearl Jam to do more radio shows! As you already know, the Christmas 45 is late this year, but word is that it will be sent out very soon now. As far as singles from Vitalogy go, expect Not For You to be out in the next month with one B-side. B-sides are usually decided on at the last minute.
