    Are there any credible rumours for July 7-9? Those are the only days I can make. Do we think it’s Barcelona?

    You can make night 2 at least 

    Yeah, that's the conversation. So, night 2 is the 7th or 8th, right? Making night 1 the 5th or 6th.

    Sometimes I wonder how much the band is involved in tour planning and management.

    The tour is planned for months now and they could have started with pretty much any option they want. So if they wanted to play Prague and Vienna to make up for the cancelled shows they could have. Easily.

    So someone made the concious decision to play Dublin and Manchester instead of Prague and Vienna. And I just do not get why.
    Maybe the settlement for cancelling them shows was astronomical and the band aren't interested in that being a possibility again?

    There are plenty of reasons they might not want to go to those countries this time around.
    Of course there are reasons. Just none that I could understand. Expect for the insurance thing. That actually makes sense. Pete Townshend said something similar about The Who‘s cancelled UK shows. They couldn‘t come back before 2 years after the cancelled dates. Maybe for the same reason Amsterdam is also missing from the itinerary.
    Great insight,maybe thats the reason 
    Agree, double blow for the fans there though!

    Also you need to remember that the U.K. and Germany have the most fans in Europe, primarily as the two largest countries, and have some of the best airport links. Around 68m in the U.K. and 83m in Germany vs around 10-20m in many of those countries mentioned. No different with other bands. Eg the vast majority of the recent QOTSA tour was in U.K. and Germany with just an odd few shows in Ireland and the BeNeLux countries. They skipped everywhere else.

    And yet those smaller countrys (with les fans) sell out quicker than those 2 bigger ones. Funny how that works

     That has to do with the venue as well..
    when they sale 2 nights in hyde park with capacity of 70 k per night its slower the sell out than 12k is the venue in Budapest for one night
    also Germany has alot of times slow time to sold out than other countries.+ they have their own system to resale face value ticket through original ticket vendor so fans its more safe to search later for tickets for face value

    How much input do the band have on locations? Do they just agree Europe for 3 weeks and the locations are up to promoters?
    I have no idea how it really works. But that would be a disaster for me as an artist.

    Is Baltimore going to be Camden Yards or the Arena that they had to cancel after Covid?  Camden Yards would be cool

    Yeah true. For Germany it was the last time last year. Tickets.de is out of the air. Wonder how quick tickets will be gone next year.

    Not since 2013 have we gotten two Philly shows, two NYC shows, and two Massachusetts shows on the same leg - Brooklyn, Philly and Worcester.

    They played all three in 2016, but two came in the spring while Fenway happened in August. 

    This is exciting.

    MSG in that order was from Mike and his mom. About 100 pages ago he said something along the lines of MSG or NYC after wrigley.  The Philly and Baltimore order a little birdie told me.  Although I get my little birdies confused at this point so maybe it was Mike and his mom lol

    You need to stop taking this so personally my friend. You live close by to one of the biggest airports in the world. Get your passport out
