    That's what Cohen is probably most famous for.

    Yeah, I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that. Saw him at the Academy of Music back a couple months and he was ridiculously good.

    what did they say on wmmr? did they say there was an announcement and then didn't make one?

    both Matt Cord and Pierre said yesterday that an announcement would be coming 'soon' - take that for what it is worth but I got to think it will be by monday at the latest.

    If it's not today, it won't be till monday at the earliest. WMMR never makes announcements on Fridays during the summer.

    the timing is not going to be up to WMMR though - it will be Comcast and PJ/10C making that decision. Most likely I think monday makes the most sense but who knows - this whole situation has been a bit baffling to me. Seems to me there is more to this Halloween show than a regular PJ show if so much time has gone by but who the heck knows at this point.

    True, the timing is up to the venue and the band, but at least since 2005 WMMR would make the announcement, then the dates would be up on the venue page and TM, LN or comcasttix and then 10 club would make a sticky. Usually they let the local radio station make the announcement first or at the same time.

    RHCP did this last time around...they sold the first show at Wachovia Center and it sold out...a few weeks later they announced a second show..all the while the second date had been out there and people were wondering why they didnt go onsale at the same time as the first show. Ticketmaster even LISTED the 2nd show and then pulled it back a few hours later.

    It's killing me checking the site every hour to see if there are any new announcements (even though I would do it anyway)... Hopefully they announce it soon, but as more time goes on, the more I start thinking this isn't going to happen... Maybe they are planning something bigger on Halloween, but I'm starting to doubt it... And waiting until after the Australia sales is really pushing the time table, and wern't we waiting for after the announcement of them too... Ah PJ never a dull moment :mrgreen:
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    I know what you mean decides2dream. For once I'd like to score 10c tix on my own instead of relying on the kindness of strangers ;). I just hope they have it at 2:00 EST instead of 5:00 when my ass is on it's way home and has no internet access. :shock:
