    Truth is, none of us know.

    Optimistic view - They realise this tour was messed up so want to make it right next year and come back with different venues/pricing/planning to avoid sickness.

    Pessimistic view - Talk of insurance reasons may embargo certain countries, the band may want to rethink touring schedule

    All I can say is I missed all shows this tour and hope to get my fill of Dark Matter songs next time around so hope they still promote the hell out of it the next tour.
    I think I’m somewhere between the optimistic and pessimistic. I’d love for more arena shows in other cities, maybe even a stadium or two in the right place, but would definitely take another Hyde Park gig at this point.

    Shame you missed out on the DM songs. I had a ticket for London, but was fortunate enough to have been at Manchester too. I thought ‘Dark Matter’ particularly sounded huge.
    Impossible to notice how energised the band looked playing the new stuff, especially RR and scared of fear...
    Hope you mean „not to notice“ 😌
    indeed, its very very clear they LOVE playing the new songs

    Barcelona night 2
    the whole of the back of the arena and all 300 sections completly blacked out.
    What a shitshow.
    They gotta learn from this.

    I hope the learning part doesnt involve not coming back because I plan to never miss a barca show again after sat. Just wish I could be there tonight

    Heard so much about papered(?) KISS concerts in the 80s that I felt warm inside seeing the Barcelona arena being cut in half tonight

    It was pretty sad to see that in a PJ show, actually.

    Don't sell yourself short. Nick Cannon is 43 and he just insured his for $10 million.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Crazy.  I do kind of like that Europe is pushing back more against high ticket prices than we are here in North America.   Albeit I think it's starting to happen here too.   Didn't think I'd see the day where the pushed prices a little too far.  Up to now, people kept gobbling them up.
