2022 North American rumour thread take 2

mattsavard

Don't understand why some folks seem to be convinced they'll split up the dates. 

Original NA Tour dates were 17 shows in 32 days. 

If they start May 1st (hypothetically), 32 days puts them at June 2nd... giving them a week and a half to recharge before the Jun 14th show in the Netherlands. 

Certainly possible they split it up, but it's very possible to fit the NA Tour in before the Euro Run.

IMO (pure speculation, albeit logical) IF they do split it up, they will split up the US (13 shows) / CAN (4 shows) dates into two legs.

I'm certainly not convinced they will split up the dates, but I think it is definitely a possibility.  Yes, the original tour was 17 shows in 32 days so it's very possible they could play them all before Europe.  However, the originally scheduled shows were based on venue availability (among other things) at that particular time.  To me, it seems like it might be difficult to get all of these shows scheduled in the same venues in an order that makes sense logistically (travel-wise) in the same 32-day window.  Plus, being that the rescheduled shows will be in the month of May you also have the uncertainty of arena availability due to the unknown NBA & NHL playoff schedules.  Can it be done?  Of course, but it could be difficult.  We'll just have to wait until early next year to see how it shakes out.

I don't understand all these "chill out" comments. people are excited about the upcoming tour announcement. speculating is part of the fun.

Maybe Canada is in the fall with a coast to coast tour after leg 2 happens?

I'm not an NBA or NHL fan so I hope the teams that play in these venues don't make the playoffs.  Not trying to sound rude or ugly.  

lmckenney24

I am not in the know on NHL/NBA playoff schedules. However, i'd find it hard to believe that the leagues don't have schedule holds for every building for every round. By having that, it would allow arenas to schedule concerts and other events on a limited basis. 

There are already events in some of these arenas in the month of May. I don't think it will matter if the team in that specific building makes the playoffs or not. Shows (not just PJ) likely already have holds in place around the dates the league has provided to be available.

I'd be happy with a split in order to have some of my NA shows before Euro and some after.

And this time around? 
For me?
Its going to be fucking smooth sailing. 
No worries about vacation time. Which has always been hit or miss, since the wife and I are always doing our Disney World trip, and she has her yearly trip to Mexico with her family. 
This year there is no Disney trip, the wife is doing Europe and Mexico with her sister. Which leaves me with 3 weeks vacation to do whatever the hell I please! 

Its a beautiful thing!

I have not received a TM notice nor do I have my 10C tix in my "tickets' section anymore.  Wrote to 10c about that.  Hope they didn't magically disappear.

The lottery for the 2020 shows was done entirely through Ticketmaster so the 10C tickets for this tour were never shown in the My Tickets section here. Check your Ticketmaster account.

I am soooo glad you said this @kasedoug I had forgot that this went through TM!  So I went to my account and my Tix aren't there either...  I look through emails and find my tix, it says "action Needed".  I click on them and they are still valid.  Thank goodness.

Balt, MD GA still secured!

Woo hoo.

If they are going to announce the rumored Fall dates at the same time as the rescheduled shows in January, getting some rumors about those cities would be fun right about now. Columbus?  Indy?  Grand Rapids?  Milwaukee?  I wonder if any or all make the cut.

Atlanta is long overdue. Just saying. Also Houston.

I would probably hit 3 out of 4 of these, if true.
