Pearl Jam has been pressured to cancel the ultimate two exhibits of its spring U.S. tour tonight (Could 18) in Sacramento, Calif., and Friday in Las Vegas after bassist Jeff Ament examined constructive this morning for COVID-19. Drummer Matt Cameron had already missed the final three exhibits as a result of COVID, requiring Pearl Jam to depend on replacements akin to Josh Klinghoffer, Richard Stuverud and even its unique drummer Dave Krusen to fill his seat.
Right here is Pearl Jam’s assertion on the cancellations. The oft-postponed tour got here in help of the band’s 2020 album Gigaton.
Whereas the band battled by Oakland after drummer Matt Cameron examined constructive for Covid, and Fresno the place Ed and the band bought by it with the assistance of Dave Krusen as particular visitor drummer, they now should current the heartbreaking information that this morning bassist Jeff Ament has examined constructive for Covid.
That is horrible for everyone concerned and we’re particularly sorry to these on the market who’ve made plans to attend these exhibits.
Our consideration to staying contained in the bubble has been fixed. We’ve really achieved all that we may have to stay away from an infection.
Regretfully, the Sacramento and Las Vegas exhibits are canceled. Ticket refunds will likely be mechanically processed to ticket holders’ technique of buy. We’re so very sorry. Be protected on the market.
Pearl Jam plans to renew touring June 18 on the Pink Pop pageant in Holland.
