Fantrotter Presents “#Fantrotting With Pearl Jam” Video; Captures Travel Habits Of Superfans At Historic Wrigley Field Concert

Fantrotter.com, the new travel website for fans, today released a new documentary “#Fantrotting with Pearl Jam” in conjunction with Pearl Jam’s release of their 10th studio release, Lightning Bolt. The video features interviews with fans of the legendary rock band, providing insight into the travel habits of these die-hard concertgoers. Filmed at the band’s July 19, 2013 show at Wrigley Field in Chicago, which was the venue’s fastest concert sell-out ever, the video reveals that Pearl Jam fans would go to the ends of the Earth to see their favorite band live. Interviewees revealed that they had previously traveled to see Pearl Jam in such disparate locations as Toronto, Canada; Dublin, Ireland; Amsterdam, Holland; New York City; San Diego; Michigan; Nashville; and Atlanta. Meanwhile, others stated they would be willing to venture outside their home towns to see other bands, such as the Foo Fighters, Bruce Springsteen and Tool; comedians, such as Kevin Hart; and sporting events, including the World Cup, Lakers, and Notre Dame games.

“It’s amazing to see so many people who will go to such great lengths to experience someone or something they love in person,” said Michael Coletta, founder and CEO of Fantrotter. “With Pearl Jam back out on the road in support of their new album, their fans will have ample opportunity to travel around the U.S. to see them over the next few months. But make no mistake – this behavior is not unique to Pearl Jam fans: people are just as passionate about so many other bands, sports teams, and more, and that’s why I created Fantrotter: to give fans a quick and easy way to buy their tickets and book their travel around these special events.”
