any rumour dates for MSG?

Not happening.

This tour will be more like 2014 USA than 2010 USA.

Can't remember the last tour where we didn't know anything really before the announcement.

Are we following the same thread?

I think Wednesday is the day. WMMR in Philly has  “big” concert announcement Wednesday at 11:00 is the time I believe they said 

I'm thinking you may be right

That would be 8am pacific time though. I am pretty sure most announcements have been 10am. 

I could have missed the time but listening now and if I confirmation on time ill repost here.

For what it’s worth, last year I got the email at 2:01 eastern time

Do they often have a radio announce a show before 10c tour email as I assume that would come at 1pm?

Typically we find out before its announced on radio stations.  There are a lot of casual PJ fans out there that would think its "breaking news" when we knew well before it was announced on the radios.

No. Usually the venues and radio announce the actual show as soon as the band makes an official announcement. But they will tease that an announcement is forthcoming.

You think the fellas are going to follow The Cure's lead and get rid of dynamic pricing, lower their ticket prices, and cancel tickets that show up on reseller sites....?

If anything The Cure followed PJs lead. I don't recall any other band using Fan 2 Fan face value before. They didn't have dynamic pricing though they did do the charity "platinum" seats. The tickets were all the same price anywhere in the building and all around $100ish.. the Cure tickets I have seen are double that for the closer half of the seats and the cheapest are still about $100ish. 

Those are seats still getting onto reseller sites. Tickets from the venues themselves were $30 for lawn ($20 in some markets). $50/$80 for pavillion and $120 wayyyy up close. They also got Ticketmaster to refund service fees to everyone who bought tickets.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I’ve followed the entire thread and any details about cities and dates looks like 100% pure speculation to me. The only posts that say they have sources are ones ruling *out* certain dates at certain venues. 

United Center - September 5th and 7th

source is someone in box office

So we leaning towards a announcement tomorrow then?

Just because a resale site lists the ticket doesn't mean they have it. Most of it is speculative or they say "if we don't have this we'll give you something comparable." 
I got a Cure lawn for $36 all in...very happy

The cure really proved that at the end of the day, the artist has complete control. We’ll see. I lost a lot of respect for Bruce with the way he handled the tickets for this tour. 

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift's tickets are being sold at prices that make the scalpers extremely happy while her fans think "verified fan" means "verified Taylor Swift fan."

She needs to call 800-Ten-Club and talk to Eddie about how they did the 2020 (errr 2022) tour.

It was not a fluke that 3 of the cities from that video have been talked about here for awhile now.

Impressed with the band management with the  lack of leaks this tour. I feel like the forums this fan base usually knows 80% of the cities by now 

It's really weird that radio isn't even hyping many announcements today.  Usually their social media pages have a lot of activity prior to something.  Makes me wonder if there isn't something else coming outside of just a few fall shows.

Maybe this is 80%?  Hope not…..

Let's hope not!

That would be disappointing 

Considering we had ZERO thoughts until yesterday anything better than nothing? 

Oh, I wouldn't say "zero"...

I'm learning today that people still listen to the radio
