Pearl Jam Criticized by Fans for Selling Tour Posters from Cancelled Gigs
Fans of Pearl Jam express outrage as the band sells tour posters from cancelled concerts, including the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium show, which had tickets sold at drastically reduced prices.
Pearl Jam, the legendary Seattle grunge band, has come under fire from fans after selling tour posters from concerts that were ultimately cancelled. The backlash intensified when it was revealed that tickets for the planned concert at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium were being sold for just ten pounds before the cancellation.
The decision to sell these posters has left many fans frustrated and angry. The concert was part of Pearl Jam’s highly anticipated Dark Matter World Tour, featuring stunning artwork by renowned artist Rupert Bruber. Despite the cancellation of the London and Berlin shows, the band has continued to offer the tour merchandise for sale, including the eye-catching posters.
A statement on Pearl Jam’s official Instagram page addressed the situation: “Unfortunately, the London and Berlin shows were cancelled, but we still wanted to make sure you have an opportunity to see the great event poster art for each show.”
Fans have expressed their discontent, feeling that selling merchandise for an event that never took place is a cash grab. The controversy highlights the tension between artists and their audiences when plans change unexpectedly.
