Portugal makes sense as there is also a strong rumour for 2 nights in Barcelona next summer!
Where did you hear the Barcelona rumour?

Well I guess its always the same. A friend knows someone at Palau Sant Jordi and he wrote that they will play 2 nights in July. No date yet...we will see!

The Toronto dates might actually be in Hamilton. Or the Rogers Centre or the Sony Centre.

The dates don't have to be the ACC do they?
Not sure if serious... ???

Hamilton is not Toronto.

They would never play the Sony Centre.

May doesn't work for the Ampitheatre, so that leaves the ACC.

How many does the Ricoh Coliseum hold?

I love to get to work in the morning and the first thing I´m doing is checking this thread for the latest "news". It is so packed with credible sources :-)
Apart from this: nothing is right in quoting a Nazi!

I am sorry if that bothered you. My intent was dark irony about people's desire to believe without proof, not to diminish real evil.

I think the quote fit perfectly into this conversation. Nice work.

No worries ;-)

Please not the skydome. If they do whatever you do don't sit in the 500 lvl

Ricoh holds (just a guess) 6-8k. Too small

If they are playing in Toronto in early May, it will 100% be at the ACC. The First Ontario Centre (Copps Coliseum) in Hamilton can hold hold up to 19,000 (closer to 18,000 for GA concerts). Pearl Jam has sold out both of their shows in Hamilton in 2005 and 2011. BUT, if PJ is playing in Toronto at the end of their Leg, it makes no sense to move their second show to Hamilton UNLESS the Raptors are still in the playoffs (the Leafs suck and won't be in the playoffs).

I wouldnt worry about that. I'd say theres a zero percent chance of them playing the skydome. At this point its almost exclusively mega acts playing shows there. They used to do a smaller stage setup to put on medium sized shows, but they havent done that in ages.

I think it's safe to say nothing will be announced until next Tuesday. At least we have tonight's set list to look forward to.

Calling for a fact check on that statement. Copps was not sold out in 2011. There were blanked off sections all the way in the back in the upper level. That happens when you make a weekday show outside the T.O city core.

It will be the ACC. Anyone holding their breath for anything else is dreaming... too early for the Amp, not enough draw for the skydome (cough cough, rogers center

)... well maybe enough draw, but I just don't see it as a possibility and would just straight up pick the ACC as a better venue. It's $17 beers of shitty molson products either way...

/\ that's the list, last posted in this thread yesterday
"If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself. And probably book a bunch of no cancellation penalty hotel rooms." - Joseph Gobbels
so now gobbels and jesus have been quoted in this thread....

somehow i never saw that coming... but it seems fitting....
Goebbels... yeah I"m that guy, but I have a degree in history so I'm obligated.

And I'm an engineer and a history buff, but not a great speller or particularly interested in grammar

...

it worked - it was good context for the quote...

excuse me while I go reserve some adjoining rooms...

This and now reports of the guys catching flights out of Atlanta to head to south America. Why Atlanta? What are they doing there? We all know they have done a lot of recording in Atlanta over the years with Brendan o' brien. They mixed backspacer there. Could they be mixing another record there???
Or it could be that Atlanta is a major hub for international travel, especially when going to S.A.

Perhaps they have some sort of contract with Delta. Delta has private jet service they could use for their typical jaunts around the country and get special rates when flying on regular Delta flights. If I were flying Seattle to SA, I would prefer Delta as the SEA-ATL leg can be had on one of their 767's with a fully flat bed seat. It would be worth the extra hour or two in the air to be able to comfortably sleep the whole flight.

I don't think we're getting an announcement until December 2. Someone a few pages ago seemed pretty certain of a December 11 general sale and it would make sense to wait until after the SA tour and take advantage of that hype.
