    I think this will in fact be true. Ran into Matt Cord Thursday before the show at the Tower and he said they had the last 5 nights in October held.

    seen the flaming lips and KOL on halloween in the past... wonder what the atmosphere would be like at a huge PJ show... definitely would be a fun time

    I still havent forgiven Matt when he falsely rattled off the wrong 2003 tour dates and had me drive off the side of the road when he inaccurately had the Philly date while I was on my honeymoon.

    Nothing is 100% official until the 10C announced it.

    That said, I am taking this one to the bank. There are just too many different sources confirming this show.

    logistically it makes no damn sense for a band who is supposed to be doing a handful of dates in the western US in October to end up in Philly? Only way I can see it is if all West dates are prior to end of October then they close the mini tour out with Philly. Either way thats a lot of wasted gas to come all the way up there for a 3 night run... and nothing else routed up East. time will tell -

    No worse than going to Europe for only 4 shows. At least these all take place in one city. I just booked my flight.

    Are you sure it's not just 110% official? Or 200% official?

    I think they mean three shows in the same place, three nights in a row. Three nights seems like a lot. I thought Jones Beach was relatively small (compared to MSG or something) and that's why they ended up with 3 nights. Of course I have no idea how big the spectrum is. Is it a basketball stadium like United Center or something?

    After seeing the first 7 shows on the 2009 tour itinerary, I can't believe that there are still people who are adamantly discounting these rumours based on logistics alone. It blows my mind.

    While logistically it makes no sense to do that, this year's touring plans have been totally erratic and unpredictable in the way it was planned. From recording an album, to an EV east coast tour, to a four-show Europe PJ tour, back to the east coast for three shows, then over to the west coast. If you ask me, this makes no less sense than the rest of the tour - not to say it makes sense.

    I'm with Vedd Hedd, I'd expect a day off in there somewhere.

    But 3 in a row would be great.

    The Spectrum is one of the most famous arenas in the US. The building holds 18,369 for concerts. I just saw Springsteen there for 2 nights and KOL for a night. Seeing GreenDay in July. The Spectrum is a GREAT venue for concerts.

    Check out the wikipedia page if you want to read about the building's great history.

    Arenas shows are arena shows.... way too big!

    My new question is can Ed's voice take 3 nights in a row??? Even cities that have had 3 night runs have had a day off somewhere, somehow inbetween.... Anything is possible just still not a 100% believer.


    The e-mail last week said tenative Western US dates, not Western US and 1 up East because they're bulldozing a old ass arena-
