Re UK/EU, I agree. It’s to bad they don’t have it in them to do around 8 shows over 20 days since 2024 didn’t go as planned. They could even do London, Amsterdam, Berlin and an Italy date or two.
Perhaps with South America and US dates in 2025 they don’t want to do a short UK/EU leg. Maybe they wait until 2026 and hit those cities/countries plus Prague and Vienna since they were cancelled in 2022, and a festival or two. They did after all make up the US cities that got cancelled in 2022/23 (Sacramento, Vegas, Indy.).

I can't see them doing South America in March as their already alot of festivals happening in that month that already have announced lineups. Would April be the month for South America? Im going to Colombia in April hopefully that lines up.

Can’t see this being South America at all. It would have been announced by now if it was.
Most likely a May US leg (and a Euro leg if we are lucky…..)

Late March / April is still 5 / 6 months away... and lines up with 2013 & 2018 dates ..and allows for a May-ish Toronto, etc date... and agreed on 100 Pacer cred

I hate to be that person, but I don’t really want to go through 62 pages… are there any actual rumors or just speculation?
Toronto in May seems to be very solid.
Other than that? It definitely seems to be moreso towards the speculation side... South America was a thing, then it appeared not to be...now is it again?

Matt Ortloff just recently on FB said South America is going to happen. I’m thinking at this point that could be November instead of early 2025?
Edit: Looking back most of their SA tours have been in November, I don’t think I realized that. I’m thinking definitely November for SA.

May is too early for that silly new 'Rogers Stadium' in Toronto, so that makes me happy.
Were those India(?) rumors ever legit? Those were definitely the days.
You know who's REALLY overlooked? Japan. Did they sit down for Taylor the way they sat down for Pearl Jam, or do the different demographics mean different things? I think we all know the answer.

I wouldn't be so sure of that when it comes to Jazzfest. Both Jazzfest shows they've played have been special in their own right. But the setlist from 2016, which is the last time they played jazzfest really stands out:
It Happened Today (R.E.M song, @ tape as band walked out after being introduced by Steve Gleason) 1. State Of Love & Trust (this is the only time outside of ONE Lolla 92 show that State has opened a show) 2. Arms Aloft (Joe Strummer cover. played twice that year, both at festivals, only played 17 times) 3. Mind Your Manners 4. God's Dice (dusted off for the first time in 28 shows) 5. Setting Forth 6. Corduroy 7. Nothingman (ummm 2 vitaology bangers back to back, and imagine hearing Nothingman at like 5:30 in the afternoon as the suns going down) 8. In Hiding (I mean come on? first time this tour after a 16 show absence) 9. Even Flow 10. Sirens 11. Unthought Known 12. Long Road (Mid-set Long Road request fulfillment from ed and the band, but holy cow how could you not love a sun-out Long Road at like 6pm) 13. Daughter (no tag, but then going directly into the next song is a wild lineup of songs) 14. Of The Earth (one of the last times it was played... my whole point in making this was you never know what you'll get when it comes to PJ setlists.) 15. Last Exit (i mean are you not sold yet? Eddie and the band seemed to be very nostalgic for Vitalogy on the day) 16. Porch
17. Go 18. Inside Job (Like WHAT?! but it's only a festival right?) 19. Given To Fly 20. Lightning Bolt 21. Betterman (to round out the rest of the Vitalogy bangers, with a Save It For Later tag of course) 22. Do The Evolution 23. Alive
24. The Real Me (being played for the first time in 31 shows, and with Big Sams Funky Nation on horns.... come on!) 25. Rockin' In The Free World (with Chad Smith on drums)
Got Some and Garden were scratched for time from this set, and not swapped or replaced.
(and they still played more songs than they were averaging for this year )
Oh and for all those people who complained about the Dark Matter video wall behind the band, Jazzfest surely will not have it. So you'll have at least one Dark Matter show with no visuals, truly meaning they can play whatever they want.
For me there will be some dates in NA (maybe in Canada) in late spring, maybe with a residency in Seattle rather than Las Vegas. Then, I think there will be a South American tour in November 2025. Europe will follow in 2026, where the Dark Matter World Tour 2024/2026 will probably end.
This is just my opinion, based on the lack of solid rumors.
