    Admittedly not a huge Foos fan, but are they big enough to be playing stadiums? Especially back to back nights in the same place?

    They sold out two Wembley shows in minutes in 2008.

    I may try for one of the Fenway shows with my buddy. Not surprised they didn't plan a Hartford show but a little disappointed.

    Looks like Fenway won't have a box office sale.

    I could see them adding Festival d'ete in Quebec City between Toronto and NYC. If they don't add Montreal as well between TO and NYC, I could see them playing Osheaga in August and then adding maybe Ottawa and Winnipeg on the way to Alberta. The four day break between Calgary and Denver also seems odd, maybe Missoula in between? Austin City Limits in October would also make sense.

    I see they're in Europe in June. I think it makes it more likely then that PJ plays Firefly and/or Bonaroo.

    Think I'm gonna catch em at DTE (wish it was The Palace, they're definitely an arena over an amphitheater band), but not sure yet, as that show is the same week as the Wrigley show. We'll see!

    If I was back home I'd catch the Citi Field show in a second!

    Also kudos to them for hearing out a problem (scalpers) and doing something to solve it. Awesome as usual.

    I think Foo's touring has no effect on PJ in any way or form

    Ugh, not too happy about a Monday outdoor show.

    This is my exact thinking... I don't want to ever go back to Camden, plus it's a monday night. No Arenas on the east coast, I guess I'll be hoping that they play a festival i wll be at, cause this isn't looking good. I would do RFK if it wasn't July 4th...

    I know they played the same festivals in 2012, but I think it's unlikely that a fest would book both these bands the same year as their fans are a very similar demographic. Alot of the festivals seem to book a hip hop act, classic rock (think Petty or Springsteen), a 90s act (PJ, NIN, Tool, FF) and a newer rock act (KOL, Muse, Arctic Monkeys) as their headliners. There were tons of rumours about Foo Fighters being at Bonaroo this year. I think them not being there makes it more likely PJ is booked.

    Judging by a lot of the comments I should really pick up Wasting Light. I had gotten away from the band before that.

    I hope you are right! If PJ plays Roo I will definitely be going back to the farm this year :D

    They played two of the same festivals in 2012, of PJ's 5 US shows. Maybe in the grand scheme of all things, if the Foo's are not playing Bonnaroo it does make the chances of PJ playing there slightly higher, but no more so than any other rock band. And it would be the same for any of those other bands. Assuming PJ even plays one of them this year, I guess you could make the same argument for Coachella, Firefly, Lolla, ACL, Made in America, or any other big US festival. But there is a greater chance PJ does not play any of them at this point I think.

    Don't miss out on this album, its phenomenal and I think most everyone in this thread would agree! I think a part of the overall 'meh' reviews for Sonic Highways has to do with how tremendous Wasting Light was/is. Hard to follow up!

    Yes, Wasting Light is a great album. I have to admit I am a bit disappointed in Sonic Highways.

    Is anyone going to the box office in Nashville on Saturday? I live 149 miles from the Bridgestone and thought maybe someone could pick me up two tickets. Nashville is the closest venue. The amphitheater in St. Louis is 186 miles which is the 2nd closest. FedEx forum in Memphis is 208 miles.

    Just saw this on DTE's Facebook, wonder if it'll be the same for all Beat the Bots presales. Looks like they're determining the front of the line Bruce Springsteen GA style:
    "Fans can get in line beginning at 9 a.m. A random number ticket drawing will be used to determine the first person in line for the pre-sale. There will be a two-ticket limit for general admission pit and four-ticket limit for pavilion and lawn seating. The line-up for the pre-sale will end at 3 p.m."

    So I wonder if you just get a number then can bail until 3?
