The Official 2024 TOUR Thread

I only brought him up because of the clip.  He’s fine by me.  I like his podcast actually.  Not a fan of the same teams as him but that’s fine.

I used to hate on Simmons, but don't care much one way or the other these days... one thing's for sure, he couldn't have been much less prepared for when he had Jeff & Eddie on his podcast 4 years ago when Gigaton was coming out. 

It felt like the only homework he did in advance was to watch PJ20 which was a decade old by that point.

I had totally forgotten about that

I remember that ep.  Three things stand out:

1) Bill told the guys he liked the Gigaton material and Ed asked him why he sounded surprised by that.

2) At one stage Bill disappeared and Ed and Jeff carried on without him.  That was pure gold.  

3) It was during the part of Covid when there was no clarity at all on when or even if concerts would ever be back.

WMMR in Philly is teasing one too, but they are saying around 10AM. So idk if it’s PJ or not.

If the Baltimore tease is about PJ, then it seems likely that all legs will be announced, since Baltimore is rumored for September

IIRC, he referred to the new album as Gigatron, a mistake anyone could have made but a rookie mistake all the same.

I think I recall him bragging about having been at the Mansfield Experiment, but then asking Eddie why it was such a special show, a question Eddie didn't really know how to answer.. was Simmons there or not? It was weird. 

I also recall him asking what was up w/ so many different drummers which led to me thinking PJ20 was the only homework he did in advance.MC had been with the band for 22 years by that point. It was as if Simmons stopped paying attention 15 years prior. 

It was pretty unimpressive overall.

timing feels off in general because it says 11ET on this for "something" but 1ET seems standard, but stations are teasing 10ET.

Agree

No tour announcement tomorrow just the single and album news. 

No, I have no idea, but watching some people get so mad tomorrow if that happened would be kind of fun. For a minute or two
