Sorry I missed the discussion...where did the rumor for the ballparks come from?  Is it just a guess or hopeful group that PJ is adding ballparks to the tour?

someone from a facebook group claimed a credible source had named four or five locations with dates. I booked a Chicago hotel,refundable of course, just in case.

Do you have a link from the Facebook post?  I'm interested since I have decided to try for the Camden show because I had my doubts about a Boston show this year.  

8/12, 14 Wrigley Field, Chicago, IL
8/17 Camden Yards, Baltimore, MD 
8/20 Fenway Park, Boston, MA
(maybe) 8/24 Washington-Grizzly Stadium, Missoula, MT
8/26, 28 Lumen Field, Seattle, WA

Why wouldn't they play climate pledge in Seattle? 

It's too small.  Getting tickets to arena shows in seattle is insanely hard.  They handily sold out two stadium shows in 2018.  

That being said, i would of been ok if they'd announce any new shows along with the reschedule shows.  It would of modified my plans.  Like why fly to Oakland when I can drive to Seattle kind of thing.

If these dates all fall between the other days, why not announce them so people can make a better educated decision?

Getting pretty late to be announcing ballpark concerts. Guessing Chicago gets Lolla at end of July and then the band takes off the month of August. Could see some arenas getting added in October.

I'm starting to believe that's a good possibility too. Cubs are out of town though, so Ed wouldn't be able to make his traditional 7th inning stretch appearance. Maybe he can be tempted to the dark(south) side. >:)

Not as hard as getting tickets to a non-existant show.

Point well taken. 

As far as Seattle, struggling with that myself. Toying with putting in for Vegas, but hesitating based upon the Seattle rumor. That being said, if it is indeed at Lumen Field, seeing them in an arena show vs. a stadium is a no brainer for me. Particularly given the show they put on at the MGM for their 10th anniversary show.

The fact that he said "see you in the summer" at the Auditorium show makes me think that they will in fact end up playing Wrigley August 12th and 14th.

If they have between May 20 and Mid June off, and July 26 through August 10th or so, that would work for breaks. Some of the band would also have somewhat of a break the week playing in Seattle since that's home for many of them.

I could see that being a feasible option for them.

So many people are entering for shows they already have tickets

Can you do that? I didn't read the fine print. 

riley540

The fine print says your submission will be disqualified if you submit to shows you already have tickets too

pjl44

I kinda figured they would plan for that. Careful out there, ticket hogs.

I’m gonna ask here, I’m sorry if it’s been asked before but figure this is the spot that gets the most views

my friends nashville tickets aren’t in his TM app. I think I figured out he never claimed them back in late January 2020. Just viewed them to see where seats were. He has a screen shot of one of the seat assignments. He no longer has the email to claim, just the one saying he scored tickets. He’s been emailing with tickets today and they told him they will be in his account 2 weeks prior to show.  That doesn’t sound right to me. Anyone else in similar boat? Any advice on where to send him to get this straightened out? Thanks!

Eh, I think they're well aware of how their fans travel and that was just a general statement. Last day of summer is Sept 21, so seeing us in St Louis would still count, heh.

Btw, got an email today that the Lolla lineup is being announced next Tuesday at 10am, so we'll find out soon enough.

This is the real deal (at least as far as rumours go)? Ooh. That’d be nice indeed.

What does everyone think the demand for Sacramento and Fresno will be?

"someone from a facebook group claimed a credible source"

Ha, yeah, not putting too much faith in that.

 may be high demand SAC, and FRESNO-w/SAC in the lead, between those two. Just guessing, tho

considering demand for Oakland was high, I would say Sac will be as well. In Dec saw Foo's at Golden one and it was sold out, while the next show was in Fresno and it was 60% sold .. with GA available day of and up to show time.. 

GA was also available day of for Sac but that could have been hold backs that were let back day off show. 

So High for Sac,.. perhaps not so much for Fresno.. I could be wrong, the Fresno arena is much smaller too, like SD small

The only show I’m going for is Fresno GA. Don’t want to try reserved since my 10C number plops me at the back of the floor usually. My wife isn’t tall enough to enjoy that. Lol

I think a lot of what made Oakland high demand was that it was the end of the tour and both dates were on the weekend. I would presume a lot of that has lessened now.

igotid88

I can't remember. Were the seats at the back of the stage seats available for this tour in 2020
