    Definitely need to coordinate an announcement with radio hype, for the 47 people that still listen to the radio. Maybe they are waiting for ad's they want to put in the newspaper to get approved, too.
    Think it’s up to 48

    No radio station chatter. That Philly announcement turning out to be Metallica is a killer. 
    Ouch yeah Philly would probably be one of the places I’d drive to see them or Boston! So what is it about this band I wish they would just have the guts to state hey folks we don’t like touring as a band anymore! Beatles did it lol, it’s hard to think otherwise you can’t tell me this is band that likes to hit the road every year, like Bruce or DMB etc etc etc
    They clearly do not.  They show up when they need money.  And we take what we can get. 
    I’m pretty sure money isn’t an issue for them.  
    Nah.  They want more money like most people.  They want to fund charitable endeavors, living expenses, college funds, and take care of employees.  They don’t want to dip into principal for that.

    Agreed. 

    To think they only tour when they're hard up for cash is laughable.

    $405.00 would be more appropriate. (I don't want to buy one on Ed's birthday!)
    This weekend we rock Portland

    See my earlier post.  They aren't broke.  They do only enough to get the earnings they want (my opinion).  I'm extremely jealous of their situation.   They built an annuity stream that requires them to tour about 3 weeks a year and every so often make an album.

    My gut tells me Friday or Monday
    Would they announce on Easter Friday/Monday?
    Given To Live -

    Latest story - Declan at Slipknot is up on the website now at www.giventolive.com along with Kayleigh at Foo Fighters, Tony at Stereophonics and more.

    Inspired by Pearl Jam, making live music dreams come true.

    As we saw w/ Jeff's poster sale, they have other ways of generating revenue that don't involve upending their personal lives for months at a time if they were so inclined.

    Reasons why I am thinking its today or tomorrow. 


    Santos coming out publicly saying keep your membership up to date has always meant an announcement is very close. 

    The early newsletter. The 10th is coming up. Why would they have an early newsletter with membership renewal hints if they were just going to blow past the 10th with no tour announcement.  

    Unless the tour is announced on the 10th. That would make sense for an early newsletter.

    Hopefully, the announcement was supposed to be yesterday but it has been delayed because they are adding a full northeast swing in October.

    One of the main perks of being successful and making a lot of money - in any field - is that as you get older you have the flexibility to choose whether and how much you want to keep working. Good for them, I say.

    Philly announcement at 8a Monday. Does that mean we'll have to wait 5hrs to find out the rest of the dates?

    This. Why send an extra, early April
    email to members if there isn’t something happening before the newsletter date?
