PJ - Back on tour!

Pearl Jam buttons
Yes! So Pearl Jam hits Pittsburgh tonight and makes their way back to Cincinnati tomorrow. I can't tell you how much I have looked forward to this weekend. Well, I guess I've been looking forward to it for 3 years. There is a ton of anticipation surrounding the show. Many things are coming together:

1) They are coming off a break from a blistering first leg of the tour
2) The 2003 show in Cincinnati was flooded out and cancelled. It will be the first time they have been here since 2000.
3) The Who Tragedy happened at the very arena they are playing - US Bank Arena. Of course, we all know PJ's history with Roskilde and Ed love for The Who.
4) It's Saturday night, baby!

Here are a few articles from around Cincy on Pearl Jam:

CiN Weekly: Pearl Jam | Pearl Jam timeline
Kentucky.com: Pearl Jam never left, but it's back in a big way

Not much, really. We'll see how many publications have reviews come Monday morning.

For more on Cincinnati's recent past with Pearl Jam check out my previous blog post on the subject.

Plus, check my photoblog tomorrow night - I'll be posting photos live from the show from my cell phone.

For a little laugh, check out this PJ-related comic strip from Yirmamah.

More later...
