    Why are European dates announced so much farther in advance than dates in the U.S.? Is it because of the festivals? Whatever the reason, I like it!

    Its because of the festivals. In 2009, when they only play PJ shows it was announced only 3 months in advance.

    Yes, I think Festivals have a different schedule than bands touring on their own. Plus there are a couple of things to consider: the Christmas market, the threat on the Euro zone (if the Euro loses value compared to the Dollar, it might not be worthwhile to tour extensively... check this article for some more detail: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 ... 60042.html )

    Most birds are notoriously fickle and fanciful. Why anyone would entrust them with important messages is beyond me. The ever reliable, dependable and intelligent elephant would seem a more sensible choice to me.

    It would be awesome if in the announcement they would say Fall US dates to follow in the future

    could be today, could be tomorrow...

  • Wow! Wasn't expecting a PJ tour next year if this is what it turns out to be.

    When does the last headliner for IOW get announced?

    If the rumoured dates are true I can see the Manchester date been the subject of an F5 meltdown. I would hate to miss out on that as I have great memories of the last gig there. Are we to presume Amsterdam is non-festival show? That one is tempting.

    I think Manchester and Berlin for me. I have to experience Berlin after reading about the experiences and listening to the boots from 2009 and 2010. Lump in some sightseeing and it all sounds good. Roll on the announcement! :)
