    Not good news from the Stone Gossard chat today. I hope they don't decide to just write us off completely. :(

    Steven Garcia:
    Great 2006 Tour. I was wondering what we as Louisiana Residents can do to help the environment post-Katrina? And when will PJ come visit? We need you!!Rock On!!!
    Stone Gossard:
    We haven’t sold a lot of tickets in the South lately, so it’s been difficult to organize a tour that gets us there. My good friend at CI Michael Totten has informed me that we’ve lost half the mangroves in the world – these are nature’s fantastic way of protecting coastal environments from storm surges and hurricanes. Looking into wetlands and mangroves in New Orleans would be a great place to start in terms of that particular environment and the natural features that define.

    yeah that pretty much answered some questions for the rest of the midwest and south, but i just dont get it because they either sell out or come close to selling out here everytime they come.....

    play smaller venues with the rest of us then, i never realized that tickets didnt sell in the south...can any of you that live farther south than me verify this?

    EDIT::: also with this new album commercially doing so well why cant they give it a shot anyway and maybe more people in the south jumped on board?

    I know. Its like they are basing it on the Riot Act tour numbers since that is all they have to go on. Yeah, some of the Riot Act southern shows didn't sell out. But hey, some of the northern shows on this tour didn't sell out either.

    Play some smaller places then, like you said. Look at the California venues on this tour. Some were pretty small.

    In 2003, both the New Orleans and Birmingham shows were shifted to smaller venues after tickets went on sale to the public.

    they'll play west palm and atlanta and dallas and that stuff at some point again, I wouldn't expect so many in smaller cities, bigger sheds though, I guess.
