    I have no info but gut feeling is nothing (maybe a one off show for the HOF) until next October - December. Europe isn't happening. There is no chatter and it is already mid January.

    I never understood why this band is so secretive about touring. It really is lame.

    Surely you wouldn't remove that sentence if it wasn't true, so something coming. If it was just bs then there would be no harm in just leaving it up.

    I think it's going to be USA, especially with the free advertising from Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. Aus/NZ is always Jan/Feb and I don't think they've been to Europe in the winter?

    Looking like Metallica, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, NIN, QOTSA, and Tom Petty should all play in the NW in 2017. I'm itching for a Gorge show.

    I wouldn't take that bet. But I saw him on his cell phone at the Cubs game
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    Not sure. He's a PJ fan, so maybe he reads the boards. http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/the-godfather/Content?oid=13384198

    Seattle is due for a show. It's a pretty good educated guess.

    True, but given how infrequent seattle shows are these days, I'd take it as a bad sign in regards to a new album. IE would they play Seattle, drop an album, and then play it again the next year when they tour for the album?

    Just FYI, 2014 fall tour was announced in May. Hopefully we don't have to wait 4 months but would be better than nothing.

    I remember that they gave a hint in the EU tour announcement (was in december 2013), but I might be wrong.

    Can't wait any longer, booking a trip to Ireland to see U2 in Dublin. Hopefully we will see a fall west coast tour.

    That's a bucket list item for me. Wish I could afford it.
