but if there are any people from texas that think we can get them here, hit me up. if we can get them here for just one show in one city, that would be awesome.
and ralph, i wasn't being rude to you. that sucks that they haven't been there in such a long time.
People who aren't from Texas really do not realize how enormous this state is. I live in Dallas and can drive 5 hours and not even be close to the state lines West or South. It isn't as easy as just driving to shows. The band can play wherever they want to. I wish they would play here more often, but that is about where I will leave it.
People get ridiculous on this board and say if you like them so much, travel to see them. I have done that and will continue to do so, but that is not a viable option for those who have families or who don't have the disposable income to do so.
If people from TX, or any other place that hasn't gotten a show for an extended period for that matter, want to talk about how bummed they are to once again be excluded from touring iteneraries, let them/us. What is it to you? Why be negative? Be happy that you have a better and more affordable opportunity to see an amazing show, don't spend your time being an asshole, and know that there are tons of people who are super jealous of your opportunity. Hopefully you won't waste it.

One of the few posts on this subject that makes sense. Kudos!
not being judgemental here, but maybe part fo the problem was the 2 Florida shows didn't sell out. I don't know how many seats were unsold, but there were tickets available right up until the shows. They've also stated before that they base their decision where to play (and how many nights) partly on album sales.
There is no way in hell that WPB was not sold out....it was slammed.
