    Pretty sure they will be. On their FB it says 1st leg tour dates confirmed. Leads me to believe there will be other legs!

    I hope so. Hopefully they add more Northeast dates. They're probably trying to finalize NYC, Boston, and hopefully CT dates.

    That's what I'm thinking too. Hoping for a DC date, couldn't be easier to get to from where I am! If not, sure hope an NY or CT date is on a weekend!

    Yep. Hoping for a weekend show also. Although a week night show wouldn't be bad in CT for me.

    Last tour, I saw them at Izod in NJ because tickets for that went on sale first, then they announced the Philly date. So I am thinking the same thing will happen this time around, I am going to wait (and cross fingers that I am right)

    I am very dissapointed that Motorhead is not opening for these shows.

    Got an email today from the Foos mailing list today with presale info that also said: "Don't see your city? Don't worry, we're coming for you too". Hoping for a DC date!

    No. I forgot where I read it but Dave said they sequenced the songs on the album like they would for a show and also said if these songs weren't all on the album, they'd play them the album order at shows. Sorry, might be confusing what I said.

    It's a no. I know it sounds confusing what I said. I can't find that interview. I remember him saying they'd play it that order if it wasn't the album.

    Sounds like he might not have been referring to if they'll play it in it's entirety at these shows, but rather on how they decided to tracklist the album. Not sure though, haven't seen the interview myself.

    And sadly, looks like I'll be missing this leg. East Rutherford and Pittsburgh are the closest to me, but that's a few hours of driving each way in a car that's crap on gas...I'll just have to hope they come a little closer a few years from now.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    And that answers the question I had, no they will not be playing all of the new album. Great setlist though!
