European Tour Sales = Desaster

The band will most certainly be back to Europe soon.  They love you guys and they know you love them.  The ticket pricing was clearly a miscalculation and I think they probably know it now.  So I imagine there will be a revised strategy for next time but they will most assuredly be back enthusiastically.  

Yes...and maybe...JUST MAYBE they have something in store for us Europeans next summer this time around. I don't think touring a new album is just 9 shows of which 3 were cancelled. Plus they seem extra excited with DM. Remembering the shows that got cancelled 2022 I could see them doing 2 x Amsterdam, 2-3 festivals, 2-3 Italy shows, Vienna, Prague, Krakow, one in Scandinavia and France.

Wouldn't really bet on them doing more shows then they have been doing.  I expect them to continue to tour like they have been the past few years and if anything do less shows when they tour.

Maybe my guess is a little optimistic...but around 10 shows for European tours.

Do you mean disaster? Or are you talking about the German band?

Used some Metallica guitar picks to mark one crucial addition to the next year tour plan.

Them euro 2000 bootlegs are gold. Amazing moments in time. Cardiff was on today 

Cardiff was fantastic. Top tier version of immortality.

Berlin and London will get shows first. If we get a tour next year it'll probably be shorter than this year's tour

Hope they will be back in the uk sooner rather than later.

Skipping the UK for a more extensive run of the nordic countries would be the best for everyone involved.

The cost of a Nordic trip for people from the UK would be impossible with the cost of things up there but I agree there should be dates up there it's beautiful. And local people can go to local shows but I can only see less dates not more if any

I've given up on a Finland show...but one can hope...🍀🤞

In 2014 at the Swedish show, some tenclub women were talking to the security guy (I guess he was handsome) about how expensive it was to drink and eat in Sweden. And he asked them where they had gone.

They answered "The hotel bar".

So, I mean - some due diligence before a trip please. Ofc the hotel bar will be expensive.

But they should skip Copenhagen. That city is way to expensive for a normal human being.

I say: Oslo, Gothenburg and Helsinki would cover the nordics. Maybe if they feel mischievous - throw in Reykjavik. And we'll sacrifice Brexit-land for it. I think everyone will be happy.

I loved Oslo. But it is very expensive for even a sandwich in a normal shop it was like 8 pounds then so god knows now. But anyway nice places better than London in that respect for sure. I think Scotland would be nice too

But their relatively new Royal Arena is really beautiful.

Pity Edinburgh Castle is too small that would be great.... maybe Ed solo

I don't mind anywhere in Europe, especially if its next year. Nordic countries are expensive to visit though

Imagine their surprise when they run into fans outside the hotel and it's all "Matt I love You Are but can we sit down for a minute and run through a few provisions in your insurance paperwork"

LOL

@seanclax has blurted it out on several instances like stone-cold known facts, so he should know the specifics I guess. 

Dunno why you would name me. But I guess your a childish prick.
I think I mentioned it once and it was a consensus of a group discussion that you clearly wernt part of.
Wind your neck in

Hey man, just ignore that Spiritual Chaos person. He just lives on here to argue with people and  complain. Don’t let him get to you. Just mute him.  The board would be better if we just ignored his posts. 

You are way too obsessed. Creepy stuff.

You keep proving our point. Time to log off for a bit and go outside .

Βut you are not following your own advice..lol

Haha. I don’t live on here 24/7 and complain all day. Sometimes people gotta leave their mom’s basement and get offline. Just a thought.
