Come on we need a date now! Vacation picks are next week!
Wrigley has to be the Aug 18 weekend if Fenway Labor Day weekend rumours are true unless they go into September for an outdoor Chicago show, which I greatly doubt. Confirmation of it all will be great next month...now we wait....
What I find exciting about the video is that they'll all in the same room. Which seems to be a rare thing for them lately. First time publicly since Wrigley?

The Christmas message features a photo of the Beatles playing Atlanta (Fulton County) Stadium similar to the shot from YouTube below:
Here's hoping that's a good sign for Georgia getting a date next year!
Think it's a sign that this could be a much bigger ballpark tour? Maybe one a weekend in Aug/Sept?
By the way...possible dates for an Atlanta show at Sun trust park are Aug4 and Aug 25 weekend...maybe a stop between Chicago (Aug 18) and Boston (Sep 1)? Or possibly Sept 8 or 29 weekends if they continue into September.

New prediction from this. Only 3 ballpark shows plus a full west coast tour in November.
Safeco August 10th weekend Wrigley August 17th weekend Fenway August 31st weekend
Really this seems correct to me as well.
I think the only question of those 3 is what date Safeco is. This date makes the most sense logistically, unless they play the July 28th weekend in Seattle, but that's only 2 weeks after Europe.

July 28th weekend would work but they play that Monday at home so it would be a quick turnaround to get the field ready unless they do a back to back show on Friday and Saturday. Really hoping they do this for Fenway. This one day off that carries over into the work week makes getting time off a lot harder for a lot of people but I understand why they like to do it. If they need that extra day for the hold just use it on the Sunday though if there is a thunderstorm.

AC/DC and Zak Brown band have both played September shows at Wrigley.

With Safeco there is a retractable roof to prevent a lost date due to rain (in Seattle?....never ). They could do Thursday/Saturday as well? Fenway and Wrigley in 2016 were 2 shows in 3 days, so could be that way again.
As for the game on the Monday, the Foos are playing Sat Sept 1, and the Mariners play Monday at home right after.
I think the US will have summer stadium shows and arena shows October/November time.
Agreed. Based off of the way the band does things lately and the cities that are due, here’s my prediction:
cleveland, Columbus, pittsburgh, DC x2, Richmond, Raleigh make up, Charlotte, then over to Atlanta x2 and Nashville (both ATL and Nashville had scheduled shows cancelled due to Bonnaroo in 2016), down to NoLa for Voodoo fest (PJ at Voodoo is clockwork at this point)
then a 2 week break and 2nd leg that mirrors 2013 west coast tour
Cleveland, Columbus and Pittsburgh would be a dream come true! (Actually, it would. I had a dream last night that they were about to take the stage in Pittsburgh. I had another one where a three-city tour was Ottawa, NYC x2 and Columbus...so go figure.)
However... the other guy mentioned Indianapolis as getting missed. Because Pittsburgh was on the last album tour, what if Indianapolis was in place of Pittsburgh??
Columbus really has two good options... Nationwide Arena which is downtown and near a lot of bars and the Schottenstein Center which is at Ohio State's campus and not near anything really. While a Wishlist Foundation tailgate party would be fun, I'm not sure I see it happening.
Columbus deserves a show. I was super impressed with the city and Nationwide Arena - great city to walk and great sounding venue.
Columbus is an interesting case and not necessarily because I'm from there.
Three times in the early 90s... two "college bars" aka tiny clubs/bars and another smaller venue. Nothing after that until 2000, partially due to the Ticketmaster situation. 2000 and 2003 were at a large outdoor shed-type venue.
A few years later, that venue stopped booking acts and was torn down. Nothing after that until 2010. (Anyone with a sharp eye will notice that 2010 setlist had a lot of avocado and Backspacer songs on it.)
I was hoping for 2013 or 2014 (keep the average shows per decade fairly consistent) but the area got Pittsburgh, Detroit and Cincinnati instead.

I think Columbus will be a longshot because attendance wasn't great at that Nationwide show even though it had been 7 years...there were a ton of vacant seats in the upper level from what I recall. I suppose it didn't help they also played Indy and Cleveland within a four day stretch. Also...RIP Polaris Amphitheater!!!

Let me know if that works. If not I will try another way for you.
