Is that right? With the S.A. shows on the calender and only one other credible rumor for Sept New York show will this be the least shows since 2002? No years since 2004 have went under 15 not to mention all of the EV shows. Seems really light even in a non record promoting year. I wont completely lose hope, for a few additional US dates, until probably July.

    It's only March. Plenty of time for more things to be announced, be it PJ or EV solo or whatever.

    Being missed is part of the business plan when you're a band like PJ. Yeah 10club members would go everytime but would the casual 90s fan see them a year later? Im not sure about that. That and they get family time. Its a win win for them to take breaks.

    Just get used to it everyone. They are just going to keep playing less as time marches on, until finally.... all gone.

    Many to most older prominent musicians have families. They get to choose. We get to hope. I wish there were other bands that I was insane about that toured more...there just aren't. I guess it will be that much sweeter the next show I get to see.

    Nothing to worry about. PJ are the new Stones. They'll be touring in 2040.
