    Strongest rumors so far...

    April/May - Eastern North American Tour
    June 11-14 - Bonnaroo
    July 4th Weekend - Soldier Field

    I don't think there will be any shows between Bonnaroo and Soldier Field... I think Soldier Field is going to be a big deal and they will be in town early... although it is 3 weeks between, which is the typical size of a PJ tour leg nowadays so maybe I'm totally wrong... perhaps they are bookends of a 2nd midwest/southern leg???

    With a 3rd southwest/west coast leg in late summer/fall?

    Don't forget Fenway in august. Also it sounds like this new arena in Vegas is shelling out the big bucks (similar to that arena in Lincoln the past couple years) to get bands to come. Can probably bank on the guys playing there as well. Billboard says GNR is playing there and GNR are asking for $3 million a show.
    Just looked up this new arena you speak of... going to Vegas in 2 months so hopefully I'll get a chance to check it out... they haven't played there since 2006 so it makes perfect sense

    I'm sure the borgata gave them a boatload in 2005, and that was 2,000 people not 20,000

    Seems like the goal would be to attract a hockey & nba team eventually with the new arena?
    I don't know maybe. It seems weird to build another arena in vegas. They certainly have enough. I can think of 4 now just off the top of my head. The other 3 I'm pretty sure PJ have played before.

    Vegas wants a hockey team.

    Seeing them can be a planned and amazing thing, or a last minute just scored a ticket and getting on a plane adventure...
    That's the magic. Stay open and roll with it my awesome PJ fam. No need to get excited..Let us not talk falsely as the hour is getting late...

    When they did PJ20 at Alpine there were other bands, places to walk around and all that....Why would they do PJ25 at Soldier Field?

    Cause EV loves his hometown and needs his CUB's fix…vs. Cinci 4,5,6 JUL

    Off He Goes... In Chicago said:

    I can't believe no one has mentioned the fact that they are other venues in Chicago... I think Soldier Field on the 4th would be great, with another 10 Club show at say the Vic some time over the weekend.

    As someone that has seen them at Wrigley, Soldier Field and Alpine, Soldier Field feels like a perfect fit for PJ25.

    As the years have passed since the VIC I realize more and more how special of a show that was and how lucky we all were to go that got chosen...I could see them doing that again as you suggested

    Soldier Field for PJ25 would be epic and makes sense since its in the middle of the country

    The Vic Bootleg is in my Top 5 of PJ shows.
    The first 10 songs are incredible. So many gems. A Fanclub only PJ25 Concert in a small venue would be amazing!
    Would it? What happens when YOU get shut out...
    I would be happy for those that were lucky enough to score tickets and enjoy the bootleg a few months later...

    This……. So true. It's such a chaotic freaking mess when PJ tours/shows get announced. I missed out on some, said fuck it at last minute on some and traveled for them. Isn't that what it's all about? It's all an adventure getting to a PJ show, that's the memory we get to have with the bootleg we crank up when it's all been said and done and things turn quiet again...

    Just imagine the lines at the shop and after market prices for the four Solider Field posters. I'm calling it now... one of the posters will have a Blues Brothers or Ferris Bueller Chicago theme poster and it will be going for $300.00 plus on Ebay minutes after they go on sale.
    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    Gotta wonder if things got a little messed up with the Adele tour and Guns N' Roses potential bookings throughout 2016. Adele's is a huge tour booking multiple nights in many places and once GN'R take off (around April or so with Coachella and Vegas at the new stadium) most of the stadiums will be snagged up making it hard to get a decent run in of dates. Just a thought...

    GnR will probably play football stadiums so not a problem. And there are always big acts touring at the same time but there are way more arenas than big acts so no need to worry.

    Besides the first show, my 2 favorites were spur of the moment trips. one of which (cville13) wound up being one of the best shows on the tour. bought the tickets and booked a room 2 days before. global citizen was my first trip to nyc and it was a blast and i got those tickets a week a head of the show.

    you guys got them in 2014, it's not like they owe anything to you lol
    Working to your theory US shouldn't get 2016 dates either cos there were US shows in '14? ;)

    I'm not so sure, at least for the US. If PJ were to play a run of shows in April/May, they could still definitely include the Florida stops, some of the Carolinas, Philly, NYC, and Canada without violating any 300 mile radius pact with Bonnaroo.

    Plus, consider the possibility of Jazz Fest or another City that wouldn't be close to Bonnaroo being added in April.

    Also, from what I've read, Bonnaroo's 300 mile rule is more of a right of refusal. Atlanta and Lexington could still be in the mix. Several other bands have played inside of 300 miles within 60 days of Bonnaroo.

    So, I think it's POSSIBLE that PJ could play a first leg in April/May, followed by a few weeks off, and then dates in June/July.

    So....they owe something to you? You got huge 2013 tour and smaller one in 2014 (same length as EU tour that year). I'm not sure why you had the need to write something like that.
