I think Vedpunk had them playing ACL this year at one point. Nonetheless I’m hopeful there is something to this one.

For sure. A lot of us have been predicting multiple Seattle shows happening sometime this year. That Jeff interview killed a lot of that hope though for me. Interviews have been wrong in the past but this one with safety feels a bit different. Hope I am wrong and they do pull something like that off. 3 or 4 arena shows in Seattle is the exact scenario Jeff was worried about though. It would be a huge travel show from all over the world. I think we are ready but just felt the band was not yet. Also I know vedpunk has been right in the past. I am not questioning that.

I’d wager that there are a whole lot of people out there who have changed their minds about what they are or aren’t comfortable with doing since the time Jeff gave that interview. Jeff is entitled to change his mind too,

This is so true, we very quickly, maybe 2 months, went from empty arenas and outdoor stadiums to full indoor arenas for concerts and sports

RatherStarved · July 2021

I guess technically Jeff said no arenas (plural).

tschav · July 2021

I can see how having a one-off show where they can require vaccination like Foo @ MSG could easily happen. Want to limit travelers? Announce it a few weeks before the show, not months ahead where we can all consider making the trip.

I’m not holding out hope, but I’d love to see this happen. Hell, that’d even be the best venue/event to experiment a paid streaming show if they’d promote keeping people at home.

uglybabo · July 2021

Yeah I think Jeff said something about how he thought most of their fans would choose to be vaccinated, but if they announced a show where that was mandatory that would solve that.

They could even limit it to Washington residents if they wanted to discourage travel.

I’ve heard Oct is a possibility for a show near me.

Seattle I get with the refurb arena opening back up and having that an all vaxx show. If they are doing something close to you it seems like the floodgates would be opening up for shows this fall and someone should bump the 2021 thread!

Yeah that definitely makes things interesting

Very. Per my source, ACL was in the cards but something changed last minute…….with this Dallas rumor, maybe a short fall tour instead?

Trying to think of what the rest of the Tour would look like, since all we have so far Is Dallas and Seattle and the rest of the west coast for the most part is covered by the 2020 dates

Would they back track back to Dallas after Ohana, then run through ABQ, salt lake, Boise and Portland on their way back to Seattle?

Well, the festival shows don’t really require a lot of their own equipment or crew so they could easily do the festivals and start a tour from whenever.

Go Animal · July 2021

^Just spitballing from here, but maybe...

- Ohana
- Phoenix (make-up show), or Tucson (new show)
- ABQ
- Dallas (or Houston) I & II
- OKC (make-up show), or Wichita, KS (new show)
- Denver (make-up show) and/or Red Rocks (new show) I & II
- SLC and/or Boise
- Portland, OR
- Seattle I & II

• Some 1-nighters, a few "let's play two"
• If no make-ups, ALL outdoor?
• no more than a dozen (baker's, or otherwise), no burnout, Ed's throat gets a rest

Thoughts?

Good point. Maybe then half the route I was thinking:

- Dallas (or Houston) I & II
- Wichita, KS (or Kansas City)
- Red Rocks I & II
- SLC and/or Boise
- Portland, OR
- Seattle I & II

Zod · July 2021

Would they really play a mini tour while everyone is sitting on cancelled tour tickets?

I could see a few home shows, but a mini tour seems unlikely? Especially in Colorado, Oregon, or Seattle. Weather in those places in oct/nov isn't really conducive to outdoor concerts?

I could see Seattle by itself, but playing a tour (even small) would kind of rub salt on all the fans sitting on tickets? Especially if they play places that would need indoor venues at that time of year.

BloodMeridian80 · July 2021

If they announced new shows with the re-scheduled dates, I don’t see an issue.

I would be surprised to see anything substantial added, but it might make economic sense for them to put together some shows since the band is getting together for the two fests and/or do some Seattle shows for new arena/raise money for local causes.

JojoRice · July 2021

Im currently holding tickets for Nashville & St Louis. I'm all for a mini fall tour! Even if it doesn't include the shows that are currently postponed.

drakeheuer14 · July 2021

The only reason any current ticket holder should be annoyed by a tour this fall is if they still haven’t communicated the plans for the rescheduled dates. But if both plans come out all at once, everyone should be happy.

josevolution · July 2021

believe Jeff!

What happened to the forthcoming album produced by Brendan O'Brien and containing Can't Deny Me is a fascinating question that we will likely never get an answer to.

When it comes out, will it be big, bold and free?

But you're completely right. Until we get an official answer, I'll believe it was scrapped. Maybe some stuff from those sessions landed on Gigaton, maybe not.

How about Lost Dogs 2, or maybe a reissue of Lost Dogs on vinyl with a couple of extra discs with bunch of the B sides recorded since the first one?

Lost Dogs 2: Remixes??

Not counting the remixes off the albums, there's different versions of Even Flow, Alive and Once off Rearviewmirror. Oceans has a remix off (I think) the Even Flow single.

I wonder what else they have locked up.
