    I would guess they want to tour Gigaton in Seattle, so maybe Seattle and other cities in Northwest North America, Seattle, Portland, Vancouver, Calgary?

    They one offed Seattle in 2002 and 2018 had no other pnw attached (well Montana being the closest).  With California covered this year. I wonder if they'd standalone Seattle, or play a few days in the surround areas...

    My prediction for 2023: 16 shows in California (11), Arizona (1), Nevada (Reno x2), and New Mexico (2). 4 in Oklahoma/Nebraska/Iowa. 2 in Central Canada. 1 in Albany.

    Plus a late addition festival in the rust belt.

    My prediction- they play only a single show in 2023, at Nassau Coliseum in Long Island. The show will be on 4/30/23, to commemorate the 20 year anniversary of the infamous 4/30/03 show. The band comes on stage and opens with Bushleaguer. Then during the outro, as it sounds like the song is about to end, the band kicks it into high gear and extends the song for another 2 1/2 hours. Then the band walks offstage and they all have a good laugh. 🤣🤣🤣

    My first show. It was listening to the bootleg on endless repeat that really turned me into a diehard fan…

    Yes. Enough arenas, back to sheds. 
    I wouldn't go that far. Too many sheds are a pain to get in and out of. Play the cities, not the sticks. 
    This. 

    I don't love the TD Garden, but would prefer see them there then Fenway or Mansfield.

    This is a completely uninformed guess but, if the band is prioritizing their health, their families, trying to make records a bit more often (Jeff is the only one who has mentioned that) and other various projects, as well as taking into consideration that they're all getting older, I would guess more on the side of fewer shows/fewer extended tours. AU/South America/Europe/States is kind of a lot and I think they're maybe past the point of spending 2/3 of a year on the road.

    Fair point. Take the Canada shows out of my prediction, lower the West Coast shows to 9 in Cali, 1 each in Reno, Phoenix, and Albuquerque.

    They should do ballpark shows in Seattle, Chicago, NYC, Baltimore, Philly, Atlanta, and Houston.

    But so many call for stadiums which take days to set up and tear down… while arenas can be done in hours. Let’s not short change the majority of America that got shut out of the Gigaton Arena Tour. There are 25-30 markets in the US, let’s try to hit them all, keeping in mind where the fans live.

    Wishful thinking on Atlanta.  Other than a festival in 2012 (which I personally don't count), it has been since 2003 since they played a full show in Atlanta.  They have played THREE full shows in South Carolina since they last played a full show in Atlanta.  It sure would be nice to not have to drive 5 hours or get on an airplane to see them play though.
    00 - Atlanta                                            10 - MSG I&2    
    03 - Birmingham, Atlanta                       22 - L̶a̶s̶ ̶V̶e̶g̶a̶s̶, Camden, Nashville   
    04 - Asheville, Kissimmee                     23 -  Ft Worth 2                                                                                
    08 - Tampa, Columbia                           24 -  Philadelphia 1&2, Baltimore
    09 - Atlanta 1&2 (EV)                            25 -  Raleigh 2, Pittsburgh 1&2
                    " if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done.

    Yep. Greenville 2016 took our show. Was supposed to be here but they ended up doing Bonnaroo so contractually couldn’t do Atlanta
