    I like your way of thinking though I am hoping no ballpark shows next year. If they do it would be nice to mix it up so those cities can have arena shows again and places like Philly and NY can get the stadium treatment.

    Schedule this year had Wrigley mostly concert-free, but 2020 definitely has pockets in August and July.

    I'll be surprised if Fenway/Wrigley get played again soon.

    I would be surprised if it doesn't myself. The 7 shows they did last year probably made them as much or more money than 14 arena shows. It is a no brainer financially imo for them and that is where they seem to be in their career right now.

    You have hit the nail on the head.  Why do 20 arena shows in 9 or 10 cities.  When you can do 6 baseball stadium shows in 2 cities. And fans will come from the 4 corners.  

    i wish i wish i wish i wish, i guess it never stops

    Fair point. To me it feels like it's been done, but to them it might feel like the beginning of a perfect revenue stream.

    Ya the shows sold out in seconds and they had unbelievable interest from us with the fanclub tickets. I can see them milking this dry unfortunately. That said though 2016 was great in the sense we had two shots to see them with the spring and summer. If they did it again like that I would be able to get to see more shows since the timeline is broken up. All speculation of course but hoping some rumours start to pop up in the fall like they did in 2017 for Fenway.

    Since 2013 they have toured 5 of those years. 3 out of 5 of those years there have been ballpark shows. It is inevitable.

    Wrigley in 2013
    Fenway 1 and 2 in 2016
    Seattle 2 and Fenway 1 and 2 in 2018

    I have never regretted going to a ballpark show and I have never had anything less than a great time.

    I've been to 9 of them and had a blast at all of them, even the rain delayed Wrigley shows. 

    If (when) they do continue, I hope they mix it up this time. Do something like Philly, St Louis, San Fran. Or Atlanta, Texas, LA.

    ballpark shows are fun for the novelty of it, but the lack of sound quality and the potential to be so far back in the stands that it creates a disconnect, is very undesirable. its all about the benjamins

    Ive said it before, but I am out for future ballpark shows


    For people who went to both Safeco and Wrigley... did you find that the infrastructure at safeco was more comfortable for that many people?  It just feels like everything Wrigley is designed to handle like 60% of the number in attendance.

    Yes. Wrigley felt tight at times. Safeco felt crowded, but not uncomfortably so.
