Can't believe fans want them to play football stadiums. Soldier Field is enormous and pointless unless you have a huge stage production like U2 or Coldplay. These baseball stadium shows are already way too big. I hope they go back to arenas and amphitheaters, but fear that stadiums are here to stay.
I hope they don't do a "2014" and skip Chicago to play St Louis and Milwaukee instead. I still don't think they will do any tours over 25 shows.

4 shows in Chicago between 2016/2018, give Chicago a break and come back to Moline. I’d love to drive 5 minutes and get to sleep in my own bed. Pizza is on me, PJ!

I was appreciative! Last PJ show or live show I’ve seen was STL 14’ Have made the trek up north 4x before though!
I had a lot of fun at that stl show! Good little show.
Imagine’s US debut & Thin Air, Crown of Thorns. Our first date night out since our first daughters birth. A great night! Didn’t fuck around with any merch truck shit, pulled in just before show time & had awesome 10c seats right off the stage right wing.
Enough of Wrigley and all the Cubs b.s.(I'm a Cubs fan) that goes with it..The Bears will win the Super Bowl...Next Chicago stop Soldier Field!!
Nah. I’m a Cubs and Bears fan but have little interest in either venue. Let’s go back to the UC.
Agreed! Going on almost 10 years without a show at the UC...hard to complain since there have been so many shows in the area since then with Wrigley shows, PJ20, Moline, etc.. but I miss the UC.
Id prefer a festival. If I am going to deal with large crowds and bad sight lines, I at least want the bonus of seeing other bands. Maybe July 4th at Soldier Field would be cool. Fireworks and all.

Pre-PJ Fandom I lived across the street.
Consolation Venues: Soldier Field and Allstate would both be cool.
