I'm getting really discouraged about this tour. I need to have my summer vacation request in by February 1 for work, and I was hopeful when these rumors started that I would be able to attend some shows. It's a big birthday for me this year and I was hoping to make a big trip and be able to include some PJ shows, but now I think I should just plan my trip without PJ shows. Such a disappointment.

You could have started by not participating in this thread.
It furthers anguish in others.

If true, this is a GREAT line up.

+1, fantastic.

I have no idea how I'd make that happen, but it would certainly be tempting.

Hope you can. Jazzfest is fun. It's awesome to see all the different variations of music they have. I went when Bruce Springsteen played. I Saw his set, and various other bands on like 8 stages, most were covered by tent tarps. Really fun experience. Viewing art work and eating at a great sea food place called Acmee Oyster house. Jazzfest does end early though, I think the bands are done/ festival starts shutting down at like 7:00-7:30 pm. Still a great time though.

Sorry if this has been discussed before but my workmate is bothering me about the summer vacation dates.. I blocked the week around 8th June because this was the rumoured Amsterdam date. Do we know European summer tour is not going to happen for sure now?

There wasn't any indication it was happening in the first place!!

There was plenty of indication. Strong leaks from venues etc.

There were lots of rumours and this usually is an indication.
I don't mean to argue and I know PJ don't owe us anything, was just asking if anybody has an idea what to do or expect now.. and I'm sure others have the same problem regarding vacation plans and requests at work.

I know a lot of us were psyched for a Europe tour with all the very hot rumours/leaks etc. Now, it sadly seems like there's other plans and we'll have to wait.

I'd say there was as much indication as there was for the US tour.

I know we all want to book holiday but there's no point booking it on the rumoured dates, that's just folly. Rumours are generally right but this tour just seems different, we got no idea what's going on now.

Saying about booking holiday of course it's folly to book on a rumour. And this tour being different with such solid EU rumours/leaks yet apparent 'cancellation' (yes, you can't cancel a rumour, I inow.) and like you say over here it seems there is no idea except it seems dead in the water.

Having said all that, I know plenty of people in the EU who got their hopes up for a tour because the rumours have to come from somewhere and would love to know what happened/going on etc.

are we really going to start that EU/US war again?

having said that... @brisk u dont know what u are talking about , the rumours for an EU Tour were way more than the US tour , thats for sure.

That feels pretty harsh on Brisk to me. In fact I'd say he's spot on in saying rumours are usually right but this is different.

As for EU tour being 'way more', I'd say they were as strong as each other.

US rumors had:

- A list of 21 specific dates with cities
- Ticketmaster posting new PJ specific seating charts for many of these
- Radio station and venue contacts "confirming" many of these dates, identifying venues
- Several different sets of dates of announcement, 10C requests, general onsale dates, with a 12/11 onsale date "confirmed" by multiple sources
- One venue, Rupp Arena, went so far as to put it up on their marque with show and onsale date
- Another venue, Bridgestone, had an e-mail stating they lost their show to Bonnaroo
- Additional rumors of Wrigley and Fenway, with dates for Wrigley that made sense
- Rumors of a Seattle (or Gorge) PJ25 event
- And then there were all the rumors of several US festivals: Bonnaroo, Jazz Fest, Okeechoobee, Lolapalooza

I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people here are aware of this.

This thread is comedy gold, going to be sorry to see it go when the dates are announced.

No way the eventual 2017 rumors thread can live up to the highs and lows of this one.

If the Euro tour was cancelled then I curse Jeff for his sarcastic reply to me on Twitter during Q&A. Not that we'll ever know.

The list of specific dates all over the 'net, leaks from venues and festivals, ticket seller in CR advertising Prague show, a never been wrong source in the Low Countries confirming...

I think we have 3 north american tour legs to make it through this year before this thread is retired!

Guys, we are all PJ fans. No need to argue which continent's rumors were more true... They are rumors for a reason, hopefully we get an announcement soon.

You're probably right. How could it be possible that EU sources are as legit as Ticketmaster seating plans from old tours

I agree! I thought his answer was completely inappropriate. Should have shown much more respect for his fans. In fact how he answered, to me showed there was some truth to it. I mean why did he get so defensive about it?? It's like questioning your child about something and they get angry and defensive. That's usually when there is some truth to it.

Wow what a brutal tease

dtr0624

relax people lol seriously. come down from the ledge, take a breath, and chill... today is only the 11th of 2016 lol. bonnaroo drops the lineup this week or next and if they are headlining then releasing a tour first would pull ticket sales from the fest so AT BEST it will be same time, or after the lineup drop. woosah people lol come on. most of these rumors have been confirmed by reliable sources many times. its not IF but WHEN...
