Hey Jammers! This newsletter was created as a direct link to the fans. If you would like to ask a question about Pearl Jam, the Vitalogy Health Club asks that you please direct your questions to DigitalKat or OfTheSea. Ready? We're getting warmed-up so into the pit!

Binaural and the North American Tour...

We've come up with a list of things for us to do while we're waiting for Pearl Jam's new album, "Binaural," to come out on May 16th in North America.

Decorate the house in a "space" theme in honor of the new album.
Play "Nothing As It Seems" until the neighbors beg for mercy. (just kidding!)
Eagerly await the Set Lists and Fanviews from the warm-up shows in Bellingham, WA and Vancouver, B.C.
Make sure our headphones are in good shape.
Make plans for the tour!

Soon Pearl Jam fans across the land will be feverishly plotting out their course to secure tickets for the North American Tour. Some lucky fans already have tickets to the warm-up shows so they'll be singing and dancing with Pearl Jam in Bellingham, WA at the sold out Mt. Baker Theater on May 10, and in Vancouver on May 11th at the Commodore Ballroom. Wow, to see Pearl Jam in a small venue is a rare treat. Thank you PJ. We hope everyone has a rockin' time and warms them up reeallll good, ok? It'll be great to hear back that they were all pumped up for that first Euro date on May 23rd in Lisbon, Portugal! Please note: the venue for that show has been changed to Restelo Stadium.

Please feel free to make your own personal list too. Lists can be fun. In fact, in case you missed the Rumor Pit update Thursday, check the list of North American venues and on-sale dates.

All tour info is subject to change. Any changes or updates to this info will be posted here. General public ticket sale information will also be announced on local radio.
