    Most of them are festivals, so they can't announce until the festivals are ready to do so.

    Good point, I was thinking about why they're doing it this way, but this makes perfect sense. I'd say they're dead certs for Download in the UK followed by a show or 2 at Brixton to be announced nearer the time. I hope so anyway!

    Download + Brixton a la Faith No More is my guess.

    they should play at Nova Rock festival in Austria beside Metallica, Machine Head and Slayer
    8-10 June.
    I've been keeping my fingers crossed since their first reunion announcement...and getting tired of that :-)

    I fully support this notion. :D
    Metallica will play the whole black album, really need to see this.

    Probably getting tickets to the Soundgarden show in Milan, though I'd really prefer an Austrian/German date (non-festival)...the venue's bad, the people there are super badly organized (I went to rock in idrho festival at the same place last year, it was super hot and they were out of water by 6 pm), and the accoustics suck (huge concrete building right next to it causing echoes)...but better than not seeing them at all!

    A Brixton show (or 2) Would be awesome... :)

    Was thinking of splashing the cash and going to the Milan show, but just seen it's an outdoor venue... don't fancy running the risk of spending £££s and getting rained on all day. Hunkering down for some UK shows... come on Soundgarden don't let us down!

    There's no way they'll leave the UK out, it just depends on whether they go solely for a festival.

    I'd be amazed if it was anything other than a festival. At least it wont clash with the PJ show at the IOW!

    berlin tickets on sale now.

    they're 20€ cheaper than those for Milan, which is probably some kind of mini-festival anyway, and the location looks awesome...need to see how much this would cost me in total.

    It's annoying they're drip feeding the dates. I'm tempted by both Berlin and Milan, I have friends in Milan, but I don't want to commit to those until UK dates are announced. From what I read though people who've been to these venues say the sound isn't that loud or too great, still I'm sure it will be fine and probably depends where you are.

    It is very irritating that they are gradually releasing dates.

    The whole reunion has been slow.

    It's incredibly annoying - Soundgarden and Radiohead are doing my head in at the moment.

    I don't mind waiting for something, but this drip... drip... ... ...drip... of dates is getting frustrating. Just announce a "Euro" tour or a "World" tour or a "UK" tour already!

    It's really hard to keep up with date announcements when they're like this, and I know I'm inevitably going to miss "the one" that I will want to go to. Plus, it really can't be any good for them, can it? They're not going to make much of an impact publicity-wise, just randomly announcing a date every couple of weeks. GAH!! :D

    Indeed. Makes it impossible to plan! Milan is just a 4 hour drive from my hometown, but as you mentioned, the sound at the venue isn't that great, neither is the organization. I don't see that show selling out anytime soon though, they had a festival last June with Foo Fighters who are bigger in Italy than Soundgarden, and that never even got close to selling out. I'm personally still hoping for a Munich, or even better, a Vienna date.
