    They have to do a full tour in 2010...no band puts out a new album and only plays a couple of shows in support of it?!?!

    I don't think that they are lazy it is just that they all have families now and that prevents them from touring as much as they used to.

    I don't see a problem with weeknights. Hell, half of the concerts I see are on weeknights. Take a day off of work. If they only toured on weekends, they wouldn't get anywhere.

    I am kind of frustrated, though. They seem to only play the major markets and that is it. I can see why they want to play the Spectrum this year, but Philly had two nights just last year when nearly every other market hasn't seen the band since 2003 / 2006.

    I just don't understand why they can't sprinkle in a Milwaukee or Indy or Detroit show around Chicago, or a Cleveland / Buffalo / Pittsburgh date in around Toronto and Philly, or play Raleigh/Atlanta after Philly or Denver / St. Louis on their way to Philly. All of those markets have been largely ignored for 3 years, but Philly is getting 4 shows in 2 years? Jesus Christ, it's a shithole!

    I agree..no way they dont play Boston, NY etc... they will tour in 2010.. I think this is similar to Bonnarroo..they played the festival and did a small tour around it. Same this year, few festivals and a small tour around those

    I don't think they're lazy either. Far from it. It's just they've resorted to really only playing the major markets.

    Amen! Detroit could use a show. You would yhink they'd like to help out cities/states that are struggling. I'm not real sure how a PJ show would help, but I'd like it.

    in 2010.. kind of a letdown with the lack of shows. Was expecting many more. Oh well, cant wait for the new album tho!! wish I lived near one of the cities with the shows but with 3 kids and another on the way, looks like no PJ for me in 09..


    They have yet to announce Aussie. I figure they'll next announce Aussie, then they'll hit East Coast sometime after that.

    they didn't have a new record last year. i guess they are banking on target commercials to sell it instead of concerts. how things change...
