I always assumed a journalist would verify and get confirmation either way before stating conjecture as fact?

No need for a personal attack on the guy. He's posting something he heard, that's how a lot of the info in this thread started coming out. Can't we just be nice to each other?

As PJ family lets just be greatful for shows for our US buddies and hope we get some shows over here in Europe.
If not then its a matter of being lucky in the draw and then booking flights & getting our butts over to you.

There is nothing to cancel, nothing is announced or even hinted at. Hope for the best but fear the worst.

I understand what you are saying, but please consider that for many outside of the US, be that Europe or Australia, have family and work commitments meaning that 'booking flights & getting our butts over' for a spring tour isn't a possibility.
I can understand why people might find the idea of shows they have, rightly or wrongly, let themselves get excited about being cancelled an upsetting one.
It would be the same for those in NA who have gotten excited about a spring tour,booked hotels etc and then that tour be pulled. Rumours around some of the potential European dates have been circulating since the summer.


At the moment there seems to be more rumours in support of the shows happening than the rumours against. So lets keep our fingers crossed.
I do hope that PJ consider their actions proportionately. I mean they've just played a country that has been in civil war since 1958, they still play NYC and they've played the UK despite previous acts of terrorism.

Music is what it's about.

Doesn't make sense. So many big acts announced EU tours recently for the next year (The Cure for example). PJ giving in to terrorism would be very dissapointing. Better cancel US tour as well. There is far bigger chance of terrorist attacts in big US cities than in majority of EU.

Let's please not led this devolve into an argument as to who is more vulnerable

If there are shows near you, PJ or otherwise, get out there and have a good time!

this please^^^^^

I concur.
Frank Turner has a song with the lyric- 'who'd have thought that after all rock and roll would save us all'

Back to the potential tour excitement...

I don't buy the "terrorism in Europe" argumentation. the tour might be postponed but it could not be the only reason to do so. if it's true then maybe there are additional reasons? i believe we will get some update by Dec 4th

There seems a bit more substancethe rumours that it's going ahead so

Agree 100%. Also cost as well, no way could I afford a trip to USA at the moment, as much as I'd love to!

It wasn't meant as a personal attack nor does it read like one. Stating the Euro tour was canceled due to security concerns and then backing it up by stating that "a journalist is privy to information but said information wasn't confirmed" is frankly disrespectful to the Euro fans who are getting excited about these dates (and rightfully so). Call it like you see it.

As for the thread title, what began as rumors evolved into a legitimate itinerary. Connecting the dots based on well-placed sources and legitimate facts. Quite different that stating "Hey Euro fans, due to the attack in Paris the band is canceling the Euro tour. Oh, and by the way, this is all conjecture I as a journalist have heard."

Just my $0.02
