PEARL JAM Planning To Launch Its Own Music Festival

December 10, 2010

According to The Pulse Of Radio, PEARL JAM is planning to launch and headline its own music festival next summer, according to Spinner.com. The festival was confirmed by PEARL JAM manager Kelly Curtis, who said that the band is looking to hold the event "somewhere in the middle of the country." He added that the festival would not take place in the group's hometown of Seattle and that the members of PEARL JAM would be involved in selecting the acts.

More information, including the exact dates, location and lineup, is expected to be announced early in 2011.

PEARL JAM will release a new concert album called "Live On Two Legs" on January 18, 2011 to commemorate the band's 20th anniversary.

The set will be available on CD, digital and vinyl formats through the group's own Ten Club imprint. The 18-track collection was recorded on various world tours between 2003 and 2010.

PEARL JAM is currently on a break after completing its most recent trek, in support of its ninth studio album, 2009's "Backspacer".

Frontman Eddie Vedder will head down to Australia and New Zealand for a solo tour in March.
