    It makes no sense that they haven't been back (other than we know they have chosen to do short legs).

    Well it took them 22 years to come back to Raleigh, a major US city.

    Yep. Mentioned a few times on here. The U.K. hasn’t had a proper tour since 2000, with no Scottish and Welsh shows since then. 7 UK shows in the last 14 years is very low compared to other similar bands, who typically do 7-10 U.K. shows in a single tour.

    I know there’s another post about a proper Canadian tour but we need a proper U.K. tour as well!!!

    Hampden Park!!!! Lets do it. Shoulda done it last year after Marlay.
     Crazy they haven't been back there in that long. Why didn't they hit it after Dublin and Belfast in 2010? These guys🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

    I can’t believe The Vandals opened up that show. That’s awesome. Love watching Josh Freese play drums.

    They were a bit crazy given the bass player stripped naked and started swinging his tackle about!i had never seen that at a gig before!

    I'd definitely expect that out of the Chili Peppers!

    (The comment section for their Woodstock 99 video said something about "slapping the bass".)
