    Nah, let's do Binaural again.
    If they ever do Binaural again (doubt it) I need to be there!  Was lucky enough to be at No Code, Yield and Vs., but man, missing Binaural was brutal!

    Have they ever come to NYC just to do a television show with no other performance? I feel like they have. They wouldn't do that to us would they?
    2011
    Letterman 2004 too I think (Masters of War, buddy was lucky enough to get the call for tix)
  • I'm new here.  I have a couple of ?s.  Assuming PJ does Toronto & Hamilton, which venues will they play?  Also, will the California tix be as difficult to get as NYC?  I'm actually 30 miles from NYC, but will be out of the country during the middle portion of the tour.  thx

    I am thinking that the Cali tix will be tough, they pretty much all will be.  NYC and the Canada shows will be the two toughest followed by LA then Nashville/San Diego/oakland, the least difficult will most likely be Midwest/Phoenix.

    just my opinion.  I don’t stress though, you try for 10c tix to the one show you really want to go to, and figure out the rest. Ticket buddy is a good route
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    Dimi had a bunch of “U”’s highlighted in a post the other day.... could it be a hint for Utah?
    Last time they were here in Utah in '09, they played the Maverick Center (E-center back then), a smaller arena used for Olympic and minor league hockey and it was maybe 60% full.  Only PJ show I have ever been too that was not full.   Doubt they are coming back here anytime soon...

    Let’s see people’s opinions:

    My wife and I both have 10C numbers (mine being quite a bit lower). For the upcoming Spring tour we were thinking of each entering the lottery for tickets, hoping for as many GAs as possible (Nashville, two Canadian shows). What is the best way to do this? My thought:

    My Entry:
    1st - Nashville GA
    2nd - Quebec City GA
    3rd - Ottawa GA
    4th - Nashville Reserved
    5th - QC Reserved
    6th - Ottawa Reserved

    Her Entry:
    1st - Nashville GA
    2nd - QC GA
    3rd - Ottawa GA

    My thought here is that I should be the only one entering for reserved seats since my number is lower. And if we both happen to win GA tickets for the same show, we shouldn’t have too much trouble finding two people who want to tag along. 

    Note: the order of the shows in our entries could differ depending on odds. 

    I'd need to review some of the older posts from past tours but I think that it would be rare for anyone to get GA with a third choice.  Its difficult to tell without the odds but I'd suggest that with your current choices you'd have a very good chance of getting Nashville GA but a very small chance to get anything else.  Here's what I'd go with:

    My Entry:
    1st - Quebec City GA
    2nd - Nashville Reserved
    3rd - QC Reserved
    4th - Ottawa Reserved

    Her Entry:
    1st - Nashville GA
    2nd - Ottawa GA

    This gives you a decent chance of getting GA for QC and Nashville and an outside shot of getting Ottawa GA.  The only drawbacks I see would be you'd have a low overall chance for getting tickets to Ottawa.  You have a chance of getting a double pair for any show but the biggest risk would be Nashville.  But the odds tool will help you with the order.

    The only thing I may change would move your 4th choice to her 3rd choice.  You'd have a better chance to get reserved tickets to Ottawa with no chance of duplicate tickets.  But that would depend on the odds and how bad her number is.
    It would be important to know which ticket system it will be - “classic” will call tickets where you can unload an extra pair to another member(s), or “2018 Stadium” electronic tickets where you can only transfer one ticket per pair. If it’s the second it will make it more risky to go for the same show on both accounts.

    I hear you.. But a lot has changed in 11 years.. They are now a "legacy act" for the casual fans and are drawing much bigger demand than even 5-10 years ago.. I think they could sell out the Vivint smart arena easily now?

    Difference between 2010 and 2014 St. Louis shows was night and day.  2010 had both ends of the upper deck empty and in 2014 even behind the stage was pretty full.

    I'm just sitting here, reading posts from doubters and haters about how there's no time for a spring tour, maybe the album will be out in the fall for a few stadiums...

    And I'm laughing.

    I just wish they'd play Columbus. Easy road access from Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, DC, NYC...direct flights from Seattle, DC...

    A drive from Boston is easy...the flight is easier.

    We're within a day's drive of some ungodly percentage of the US population...and even Toronto, too.

    But... crickets...

    For what’s it’s worth, 2016 spring tour was announced and the lottery was open on a Tuesday, closing the following Monday. Drawing was about 2.5 months from. First show of the tour.

    No offense, but all that said you are still Columbus, OH.  Indianapolis.  Louisville.  Lexington.  All names that get shows every 10 years or so (or never).
