EXCLUSIVE: Pearl Jam Oz Tour Post by: Eddie Ruckus - Rockin' Blogger 7 July, 2009 - 7:41 AM
We can exclusively reveal that Pearl Jam will return to Australia in December for a national tour. Yay!
It will be PJ’s first visit here in three years.
The shows will come on the back of the release of Pearl Jam’s ninth studio album Backspacer, which is due out September 18.
We’ll get to hear the first single off Backspacer, a track called “The Fixer”, on July 21.
Our sources tell us Pearl Jam’s Oz tour will officially be announced next month, but don’t forget where you heard it first! [No, no, no – thank you!]
Is this the best news you’ve heard all year? Did you see the last tour? What are your fondest memories of Pearl Jam live?

I am a massive fan of Pearl Jam. I have been to all the 4 concerts Pearl Jam have played in Australia. Im just thrilled with this news today...
Everytime they play I worry it was their last, so it was awesome to hear Eddie & Pearl Jam love Australia & enjoy playing for us.. Well I enjoy watching them.
Pearl Jam are the greatest band in the world & I thank you MMM for having them here again.
MMM & Pearl Jam Rock.

Awesome news! Saw 'em in Brissy last time they were here 3 nights after U2!
Lets just say... half the lights, half the arena size.. 300 times better than Bono's boys!
Go the mighty Pearl Jam!

I saw Pearl Jam twice when they were last in Australia. They were amazing both concerts. Eddie Vedder seems to be such a genuine man and deserves heaps of support from his oz fans.

Best news for the year by a mile. It numbs the pain of the Hawks sucking balls this year.
I can't wait to see Ed and the boys again.
