2020 United States & Canada Tour Rumors

link93

I’m hoping for announcement tomorrow or Tuesday but I noticed Vedpunk said see you on the 13th. So maybe not till next Monday.

I absolutely love U2 but fail to see why you need to see them multiple times a tour.  I mean they literally play the same set and say the same lines every night. Too scripted for me.  Just my two cents. 

Same as Foo Fighters...same songs (maybe 1-2 shuffled) and the same fucking jokes...really scripted which surprised me

Sorry for not back reading regarding the announcement date but is it more likely to be:

1/6 (tomorrow) or 1/13??

Thanks!

Someone posted a rumour many pages ago the general public sale would be the week of the 13th.  That would mean the announcement and opening of the lottery would be tomorrow or Tuesday.   At least that’s what I’m hoping 

I could be wrong, but didn’t that previous post state that the announcement would be Jan. 13? 

You could be correct,  just remember someone saying the public sale was the 13th.  Which I thought was odd cuz it’s a Monday.

My wife and I had tickets to the Jay Leno Tonight Show many years ago.  We arrived around 2pm to a ridiculous, very strict fan-run line for that night’s musical guest lol.  We didn't even like the musical act so we didn't give a shit.  We were fine being in the back.  The head line-nazi proceeded to give instructions to the rest of the line and they obeyed like good soldiers.  They had been there since 7am.  

Here’s the funny thing.  When it got time to actually enter the studio the Tonight Show crew put the first ten people in the very back row.  They picked us for the front row because we were a young couple
I saw three or four people kicked out for yelling about their seats or trying to switch seats.

Where are the LA shows likely to be played?  I'm not familiar with the arenas there.

I'll go back to the GA problems - and know that PJ also reads these forums to keep the pulse of what we're thinking.   IN THE ROUND show removes all of the rail bully issues and would give us all a totally new PJ experience.  Metallica has been doing it for years successfully and it is an amazing experience.   Would love to hear more voices call for a new stage set rather than some new process for managing chaos.

We spotted that tall Australian fella in the GA line outside Wrigley. We were there early enough that he and his crew were still friendly and approachable (we had heard the stories prior) but we took off to explore. Noticed they’d gone and leave someone behind to hold their spot which we thought was against the rules but the people directly behind didn’t seem to care. This fella was all about being front and center on the rail for recognition and/or acknowledgment from Ed (believe he got a shoutout) which is fine if that’s what he wants to get out of the experience. Just don’t be rude to your fellow fans about it. As for U2 knew it was an issue 20 or so years ago when the line monitors wore homemade badge-type lanyards identifying themselves as line police...and still proceeded to let their fellow people sneak right up closer to show time. If that’s your objective in life go nuts.

Bring on the announcement - the wife has given her blessings.

Dave Grohl birthday show IN THE ROUND at The Forum was a blast! Stage rotated....everyone happy...

I absolutely love (this other band) who changes about ten original songs on the setlist nightly but fail to see why you need to see them multiple times a tour.  I mean they literally play nine covers a show and shine white lights into the fan's eyes. And the singer says different lines every night. Lots of them. In between gulps of red wine. Not scripted enough for me.  Just my two cents.

IDK if I could see PJ doing a Metallica/Muse style in-the-round production. Too much choreography

Interesting idea. I'd sign up for that. They play with fans behind them in the states anyway. But something about old dogs and new tricks, not getting hopes up.

I never pegged you as a nickelback fan.  Cool cool.

Does anyone think the NHL playoffs starting on April 8 could cause some weird routing for the west dates? The combination of the OKC date, the Avs and Coyotes both on pace pace for home ice advantage in the first round and the 4/13 SD date is making me think something like this might be possible? I don't see PJ playing Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix since the only venues they've played since making the jump to arenas and sheds have been Ak-Chin Pavilion and Gila River Arena.

4/6-OKC

4/8-Denver

4/10-LA

4/11-LA

4/13-San Diego

4/15-Phoenix

4/18-Oakland

4/19-Oakland

I’d be for that. Maybe for Last Kiss they could do that Kanye floating stage thing.
