    I'm surprised they haven't used diminished ticket sales in the South to take advantage of the possibility of having a consistent tour of smaller venues; knowing how the band views those intimate shows, and seeing as they have not managed to do that since the early 90's, I thought they would try doing that for a short stint in the South. We'll see what happens, I guess.
    Large venues.........small venues...........just head this way. Birmingham has one of the best possible small venues in the Alabama Theater.

    Yeah, I just remember when asked about the South, one of the band members mentioned that they wouldn't be going down there cause sales are slow in that section of the country. I just figured it would be a perfect opportunity to try doing a smaller venue tour.

    Yes, it would be the perfect opportunity to do such a tour.....you will find abundant agreement for that idea in this thread.

    There's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.
    “It’s the idea that people living close to nature tend to be noble. It’s seeing all those sunsets that does it. You can’t watch a sunset and then go off and set fire to your neighbor’s tepee. Living close to nature is wonderful for your mental health.”
