PJ hasn't played Seattle since 2018 Home Shows at Safeco Field and hasn't toured a new record here since Lightening Bolt n 2013. And still today, no Seattle dates. Makes me sad.

    It’s so bizarre how they choose to tour. If you had told me in 2018 that they would play 3 legs of US dates in support of their next album but skip Seattle and Boston I would not have believed you.

    it is a shame.. I mean alternatively they've only done 1 tour since those shows... I guess there's still hope depending how long it takes for the new album to come out.. but that's pretty crazy they'd skip an album tour there.

    Reading it in hindsight, makes it look like it was barely ever a thing.   We talked to them about it the RROH, they seemed interested... lol.

    Samesies on the right coast with New England. I'm glad I went to a pair of NJ shows (2020/2021) because I would have missed out for the Gigaton tour!
