Missoula is buzzing about the upcoming shows at Washington/Grizzly Stadium. We have noticed the stage being erected and soon thousands of fans will fill the stadium with noise.
The first big show is Pearl Jam on 8/22. This show is one you won't want to miss. Just looking at the limited dates of the Pearl Jam "Dark Matter" tour, you will notice some famous venues on the list of tour stops. Places like Wrigley Field in Chicago, Madison Square Garden in New York, and Fenway Park in Boston... Washington/Grizzly Stadium?
Montana is a special place, and Pearl Jam knows it. That is why they are kicking off the US leg of their tour in Montana.
Footage of Pearl Jam's "Dark Matter" tour has been surfacing online. Giving us a sneak peek of what we can expect from their performance.
If you take a look back at previous times Missoula has hosted a Pearl Jam concert, it has always been during an election year. Particularly years that Jon Tester is on the campaign trail. But why?
We all know that Senator Tester and Jeff Ament are buddies. With a friendship that dates back to their youth growing up in northern Montana. There have been many times that Pearl Jam has played shows that coincide with the Tester campaign.
Jon Tester was elected into the US Senate in 2006, shortly after Pearl Jam played at the Adams Center in Missoula.
Pearl Jam returned to Missoula 6 years later for another Adams Center show in 2012. The same year Tester won his first re-election campaign.
Pearl Jam returned yet again to Missoula in 2018 for a GIANT show at Washington Grizzly Stadium.
The countdown to the BIG SHOW has begun. See you at Washington/Grizzly Stadium on August 22nd.
