Just an observation(total # of live shows)...

After their European shows, it looks like the boys will have played 844 official shows. Does anyone else find that number to be surprisingly low for a band that has been together for 20 years, and who has earned such an amazing reputation as a live band? I know they missed a few years with the whole TM debacle, etc...

Again, just a random thought...

    So averaging 42 shows a year isn't a lot?

    It's almost a show a week, for the past 20 years... That's a hell of a lot of shows 8-)

    There aren't many fans who have seen 100 shows. I would venture to bet it is less than 1/2 of 1% of the total fan club. It's also probably why they are still together. How many American rock bands do you know that have actually been around together for 20 years without breaking up?
