This iconic rock band is coming to Raleigh for 2 nights. Here’s how to see them play
Iconic rock band Pearl Jam will visit Raleigh for two nights this May as part of their five-city U.S. tour promoting their three-time Grammy-nominated album “Dark Matter.”
The band will play at Raleigh’s Lenovo Center (formerly PNC Arena) on Sunday, May 11 and Tuesday, May 13.
Pearl Jam last played in North Carolina in 2013 at Charlotte’s Spectrum Center. The band was supposed to visit Raleigh in 2016, but they canceled their show over the passing of House Bill 2, a Republican-led bill that required people to use the bathroom corresponding to their assigned sex at birth, The News & Observer reported at the time.
“Dark Matter,” the band’s 12th studio album, was released in April.
