Definitely the right call. Especially for a band that already has PTSD from fans dying at a show, they just don't want any more people getting hurt trying to see them play.

I was hoping to see them at MSG this year, but it's not a big deal, they'll tour again once it's safe to do so. They've also said tickets already bought will be honored.

"here in Seattle what we are witnessing we would not wish for anyone"

I don't understand why they are acting like Seattle has people dying in the streets right now. The Seattle Sounders had over 20k on Saturday night for a soccer game. All of the cities on the first leg of the tour have events going on right now and are not on lock down.

Pearl Jam postponing their tour? Hey, maybe we can avert two disasters!
