Ed was interviewed the week of Record Store Day and he was in Hawaii. Who knows, but I don’t think there is any urgency whatsoever. They are living the dream right now.

Mike was in LA and Jeff was in Seattle at the same time. This was also the same time there were "reports" they were in the studio.
Three years ago tomorrow began the last 2 night MSG stand.
Who knew it would be the only 2 Pearl Jambi shows there in the twenty teens.
Talk about not milking that cash cow.
Wow, you're right.
I thought they did it in 2013, so I looked it up and that was when MSG was undergoing renovations, so they did Barclay's Center instead. In a way, you're right, but it's the same metro area and 99.9% of the same people would have been there.
Since 2013, they did Wrigley five times and Fenway four times.
My, how the times have changed.

Wrigley five concerts = 210,000 tickets sold
Fenway four concerts = 144,000 tickets sold
that is equal to approximately 20 arena shows.... and don't forget the 4 posters per show and merch madness that occurs at these stadium shows...

get used to the stadium shows in large markets
A good hypotheses but if true perhaps they should retire.
If they were to play 20k arena shows focused in the bigger cities and play multiple nights each stop...
And price it as a premium band that only occasionally tours...
They can maximize their revenue and minimize their cost.
Seeing dots on a stage every tour for here on out is going to get minimally interesting fairly soon.

They are recording a new album. Tour next year. (Be positive...it's gonna happen).
No doubt. Definitely looking forward and will have a great time at some shows. If I’m betting though, I’m betting on the stadium show formula that seems to be working in the markets that allow for it.

Quick quiz: Name 3 of the top 5 fastest sellout events in Wrigley history? Seattle was also a huge success, as was Boston. I think even with a new album, depending on timing of release, stadiums are here to stay. Allows let them to maximize reach while minimizing dates and the wear/tear on voice/bodies, and keeps the merch machine running. I am not pro-stadium, but I am pro whatever keeps these guys playing together and brining us all to one place to celebrate their music and rock our asses off.
If stadium shows become the norm it may become a problem. Until then each of these ballpark shows has felt like an event, and each has been awesome in its own way.

Fenway at 36k capacity is not much larger than a large arena. To get in the extra 16K fans, stadiums are extremely expensive to stage for a concert and for 2 Fenway dates it required about 5 days of commitment. That hardly sounds cost effective.
I'd further contend since those extra 16k fans in the upper deck or in the back behind a post are paying the same price as fans in the first 30 rows, we either are watching fans systematically getting ripped off or observing socialism flourish in rock touring.
I don't assume that stadiums will be the norm. It makes sense for non-album/tour years, but if they're doing a full arena tour, stadiums don't make as much sense. As someone said above, the stadiums were "events."
