Pearl Jam publicist denies hiatus rumour
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 20 July 2010
Pearl Jam’s US publicist has denied rumours that the band are about to go on hiatus.
As previously reported, local press in Portugal reported earlier this month that frontman Eddie Vedder had told the audience at the Optimus Alive festival in Lisbon earlier this month: “Thank you for coming to our last show; not our last ever, but our last in a long time”.
However, Nicole Vandenberg, head of Vandenberg Communications, told Seattle Weekly: “He says that at the end of all tours, because the tour has ended. The remark may have gotten a little lost in translation”.
This doesn’t change the fact that Pearl Jam really should go on hiatus.
