Just got the email...nothing.

Personally I'm not upset that the rumored tour announcement didn't happen. A Jan/Feb announcement works better for me financially.

yup. me too!

If they are going to have a spring US leg, summer Europe leg, and fall US leg they really should announce all at once.

No please. I'd rather have two tours with first picks than have to have something in there for 14th place lottery.

Didn't they do the USA 2013 leg 1 and leg 2 lotteries at the same time but separately? I believe so.

It would be easier to plan if we knew the whole tour. I'd probably drop the NYC/Philly shows if I knew they had some Euro shows coming along. I'll probably still avoid Ten Club tickets for some of the spring shows if they do not announce the Euro tour at the same time to add flexibility.

one of the long timers on this thread (15+ pages ago lol) said that it was gonna be december after s.a. maybe hes right. 2013 was only 3 months from date to tour though. got my tix on july 27 (day of public sale) and philly night one was oct 21. so by this logic, i wouldnt expect anything till january... but why the reminders so early? a backpack and some nugs downloads? cant be... i sense a massive tour needing the extra time to make sure enough is sold.

also im pretty sure its lexington va not ky. hopefully its another one off night like cville-13 at the college, small venue

I originally heard from reliable source 10/30 public onsale. Shortly after someone on here started saying earlyish December public on sale based on what I think was a venue or ticketmaster source. At the time I thought based on past experiences, the hints /reminders about membership meant announcement was imminent, but I was obviously wrong. Either way, the hints and the early ticketmaster seating chart leaks make me think it was all settled, and something happened and it got pushed about a month or so the late November ten club announcement and December public on sale makes the most sense at this point. I know announcements 3 months out have happened, but I really believe they intended to get ahead of Xmas and really allow a lot of time to try to maximize ticket sales in a region (southeast first half of tour) they havent hit this hard in over a decade. All just PJ educated guesses..hopefully we hear something soon.

I've never heard anything about Lexington VA, it's always been KY. That would be way more centrally located for Cincy, Louisville, Indy, etc.

dtr0624

But that would leave nothing on the coast between Raleigh and philly. And sticking with the past stops, their "costal" shows have been pretty much that. Coastal. Nyc, philly, nc, va, md, ct, ma, and so on. If they stick with the last tour set up then to hit places like kentucky, cinci, chicago, detroit, etc usually seems to be a separate leg. No shows between Raleigh nc and philly is a MAJOR population of people fighting for tickets. A stop in va, or adding md or dc would fix that.

dtr0624

What makes me also think that it's va is because they are doing pittsburgh. That covers ky, oh, etc until the next leg

Yeah, I'm not sure it's Lexington VA... I mean, great for those crazy ass Washington and Lee students, but seems like a reach. I do think it's a glaring omission that there's nothing rumored between Philly and Raleigh though. I agree with that point completely. I would LOVE a return to JPJ but it wouldn't surprise me if it's Verizon Center in DC. It might be a bit early for VA Beach amp. Maybe they'll just just play the 930, Norva or the National instead.

I see absolutely no reason they wouldn't play JPJ again.

It's acoustically fantastic, great setting, easy to get to from wherever in the VA/DC area... I'm with you all the way. I would be super pleasantly surprised. The good thing is that you don't have to worry about hockey or basketball playoffs. May is a bad season for concerts at Verizon.

dtr0624

Jpj was amazing. Upper level in the back. Sound was amazing. Boot doesn't do that night justice. The gap between Raleigh and philly is insane for that area though haha. Unless there is a second or third night that has been able to stay under wraps. With the gap a third philly show makes most sense (no show between there and nc and the rumors is 27/28 or 28/29.) 3 nights would be amazing if they don't do a va/md stop.

Your tag of "23 years old, 16 shows" is what is disappointing. I cant sit here and tell you why, but there is something about it, that unfortunately for me, I get deuce chills every time I see it. You're probably a cool dude too, but I dont know man, that tag line makes you come off dooshy. I apologize in advance for anyone that I may have offended.

Agreed. Good for him for hitting a bunch of shows early in life. Hell, I saw my first on in 92 at 18... but I'd love to be 23 again. Give that up in a sec.

Got my first at 15 in '92, was 23 at my second - been at 8 since 35...
Good for him! And amazing that the guys still attract devoted fans!

... Still... I kinda thought the same, but think that intend and perception is the issue

I'm 22 years old and fell in love with the band about 3-4 years ago. I've been listening to PJ since I was kid, but they never moved me like they do now. Went to my first show last year (Milwaukee 2014) for my 21st bday, kicking myself for not really getting into them earlier on in life. I think I'm a prime example of why the band is still so relevant today, they keep attracting die-hard listeners, even in their late 40's/50's. Good for you Weston, keep it up!

bootlegger10

Anyone have any info as to whether the Euro tour will get announced at the same time? I see Werchter has announced a couple bands already including a headliner so if it is PJ it could be happening soon.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Wes in Cincinnati last year...and we got to hang out in Tulsa & Lincoln as well!!
I can assure you that he is one of the nicest and most down to earth people I've met on the road!!
Just bumped into him a few weeks ago up in Cleveland for the Cornell show and I'm looking forward to seeing him on tour next year!!

Here's why I don't find any validity in Ticketmaster putting up seating charts on a venue's page: the Pittsburgh TM page has seating charts at the Consol Energy Center (our hockey arena) for Justin Timberlake, Neil Diamond, James Taylor and Pearl Jam, among others. I don't think Timberlake is doing another massive tour, at least not in the near future. He was last in Pittsburgh in 2013 (a month or two after Pearl Jam). James Taylor and Neil Diamond, on the other hand, were just here. I just think TM isn't clearing out seating charts and are being lazy.

I hope I'm wrong as I would love for PJ to come back; however, I would think they'd play Cleveland or Columbus instead of Pittsburgh seeing on those two cities were not played since 2009.

They have never played Jacksonville memorial to my knowledge and the seating chart is there now. It's legit.

I'll always take a Pittsburgh show since it's so close, but yeah, I don't get why Cleveland would get skipped while Pittsburgh (and especially Buffalo) get another show

Skipping Cleveland would be a total travesty.. don't they know that "all the little chicks growing up on the skids go 'Cleveland Rocks'"?
Go Bucks, Clowns, Cavs and Tribe. Born and raised on the west side but have never seen PJ in my home town. Left Believeland in 91..

exactly- they dont clear out the old ones for shows already happened

but the fact they added them at the previously unplayed florida venues proves there is a tour coming..
