Multi-platinum grunge legends Pearl Jam have announced the rescheduled dates for their North American tour that was originally booked for the spring of 2020. This trek will sport several new cities not included on the original itinerary, including shows in Fresno, Sacramento, Las Vegas and Camden.
The run will also find Pearl Jam out with their new touring guitarist Josh Klinghoffer (ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers). He’ll be pulling double-duty on the trek, as his solo project Pluralone have been announced as the opening act.
Pearl Jam are planning to undertake the tour in an environmentally conscious fashion, with an official press release explaining their intentions:
‘In continuing their ongoing commitment to acknowledge and address the band’s carbon footprint, Pearl Jam will be paying $200 per ton for carbon dioxide mitigation from the Gigaton tour, a ten-fold increase from prior years. This pricing allows the band to pursue a multi-layered strategy of offsets and investments that combined, will allow for a more comprehensive mitigation plan.’
The band’s guitarist/vocalist Stone Gossard added:
“We are proud of our prior efforts to mitigate our inevitable carbon footprint from touring over the past 20 years but the time to multiply that effort is clearly right now. By committing to this aggressive pricing, we hope to equally amplify our efforts and gather partners who share our urgency to make the investments and innovations required to move our world to a more conscious, carbon balanced economy.”
An official press release for the tour also spelled out the ticket options for the trek:
‘A special ticket pre-sale for all tour dates begins today for current eligible Pearl Jam Ten Club members (active as of Sunday, March 13).
