    If they’re playing Chicago right before Noblesville, assuming they do two shows in Chicago, would we really expect two for Noblesville? Then If they only did one Chicago show, another reason to only expect one in Noblesville 

    This is what baffles me.  They do one night each in Toronto (~7 million region), New York (almost 9 million city proper), Philly (~7 million region).... but they're going to do 2 nights at noblesville (71,000 people)?

    I mean I know their touring schedule typically makes no sense, but did y'all really expect 2 nights at noblesville to be in the realm of possibility?

    I guess it's more likely than Houston... lol.. 
    Noblesville is Indianapolis....more like 700000 people
    sure... whatever.. still an order of magnitude shy of those other places. lol.
    I think it’s more that it’s within a few hours drive of many times that population.  Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Ontario, etc.

    We can't compare PJ to Phish or DMB when it comes to touring. I wish we could, but we can't.

    With that logic, all future tours should contain at least two shows within the Houston - Dallas - Austin - San Antonio triangle.
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Deer Creek is one of the biggest amphitheaters in the country so (2) shows here on a weekend isn't that far-fetched. If they're going to do sheds, then it doesn't get much bigger. Add in the proximity to other major population centers and you're selling 50K in tickets for a 2 night run.

    My contact was taken back by the Pumpkins announcement because as of the beginning of March it was held.

    It sure was nice in November 2021 when they provided an announcement that at least gave some news.

    Perhaps they could come out and saying something along this line, or if nothing is planned, share that as well. Maybe that's crazy to suggest.

    Was really hopeful the lead on Noblesville was something.  Silly venue saying the SP are a major announcement when its really just another announcement.

    It's still true that they had a "pending" on the 9th and 10th....maybe they just don't need the 9th now

    Unfortunately the only reason this happened was because people had been holding tickets to postponed shows and they were about to announce EV Earthlings shows.

    This is exactly right. They had played Ohana and SHN outdoors, but Ed's indoor tour was about to be announced. The not-yet-rescheduled 2020 shows were the elephant in the room.

    Could be that the plan was never to play both nights but to hold both til they find out the routing.

    Possible that Pumpkins and Interpol inquired about 9th and PJ released and kept the 10th.

    Also possible that they completely released them and decided to do nothing.

    Not uncommon for multiple holds on a venue that requires a question to the holder if another serious booking requests the date.

    Of note, Noblesville is the last date of the Interpol and Pumpkins tour so there was some level of flexibility for booking as didn’t have another date to have to get to.

    Well looks like it’s getting very close to April with no news. My prediction- they announce a tour on April Fool’s Day and we all don’t know whether to believe it’s real.

    As if any representative would answer a request like this with „Oh yeah, we have a full world tour planned with dates being finalized. Wanna know the current itinerary with tentative dates?“

    Of course they deny any touring plans till the day of the announcement.

    I’m not sure. They could just as easily have said “we can’t announce anything at this time.” Much more wiggle room than “we don’t have anything scheduled”. They also didn’t need to confirm that they’re in the studio. All of this just gives me the impression that there is nothing going on this year. 

    My .02, even though I wish/hope I’m wrong.
