    they have no excuse to skip TX. while it's not really in 'the south' IMO, they could schedule 2 to 3 shows here and sell very well. all of the '00 shows sold out from what i remember, save for maybe lubbock. do the math though, college town in the middle of nowhere with a big ass arena. it's cool to play places like that every once in a while. no one could convince me that they can't sell what they 'need' to in austin, d/fw, san antone, or houston. if they EVER give an explanation, hopefully it's legit. otherwise, save the BS.

    you finally get some shows and you can't even drum up enough interest to crash the server....pathetic

    just remember this next time you start another pettition/whine thread


    for cryin out loud if you just give the Band long enough they will take care of you! They days of a tour every summer are over, and album a year over! So when they choose to bless us with a tour just be happy they are playing any shows at all! Why would anyone in a business decide to go tour in a place to lose money and play half empty venues?

    just be happy FL, SC, and the east are getting more shows, go if you can, don't bitch if you can't.

    edit: we don't care of they sell out or not, we are just tired of people bashing the band for making a sound business decision

    Reply: There was justification, it is expensive, abnormally time consuming and PJ have made references to not being accpeted well. Yes, again, there are diehards in the South (who do deserve shows, maybe not every single time) but all in all, the Rock stations and fans (rock or country, top 40) would rather see someone else or do something else.. Boston, New York Philly and other northern locations would rather see aband like PJ or some new indie cred band. Not just the hipsters either, a lot of people support these kinds of acts. It's a fact. Maybe it has something to do with the wonderful weather you guys have, so instead of going to sporting events or rock concerts you go fishing. Who knows, but it is a good justification.

    Coming from a Tampa resident, that pretty much hits the nail right on the head. I flew to Summerfest in 2006 and Lollapalooza in 2007. It sucked having to travel out of state to see them, but imagine if you lived in a country they never tour. Things could be worse. I'm always driving to Atlanta to see concerts. That seems to be the farthest south a lot of bands are willing to tour.

    There's a big market down here for two genres, country and 80's metal. It's unfathomable. If AC/DC opened for Brooks and Dunn, scalpers could charge $2,000 a ticket.

    I just hope tickets are still available, like they are now, the rest of the week. That would make me very happy!

    When there is a "tour" the tickets are easier to get because there thousands not a couple hundred avaliable like the EV shows of the VIC.


    Absolutely.

    I said many times beofre, these will be a lot easier to get than VIC, Ed Solo, etc.

    the only one that may have probs is MSG.
