According to PearlJam.com
"The Home Shows mark Pearl Jam's first hometown appearance in 5 years, plus the largest headlining concert event in Seattle since the Rolling Stones' two-night stint at the Kingdome in 1981.
In addition to bringing nearly 100,000 fans from around the world together, The Home Shows will spotlight efforts across the city and King County to address the region’s homelessness issue.
Pearl Jam is pledging a minimum of $1 million toward local homelessness initiatives. They challenge everyone to join them -- with the goal of raising a minimum of $10 million pledged toward addressing homelessness in 2018. The band is researching a wide range of programs to address Seattle-area homelessness in varied ways with a plan to announce specific beneficiaries closer to the show dates."
