Thought it would be informative to start a thread regarding new tours when they are announced.

Here is one:

Nick Lowe and Los Straitjackets are opening....a great triple-bill!

    Great idea! Here are a couple I’m excited about:
    Social Distortion: http://www.socialdistortion.com/tours/

    and the Doobie Brothers are doing a 50th anniversary tour with both lead singers they’ve used since 1972. I wish other bands could be so co-operative-y.

    I miss the "Monsters of Rock" format from the 80's, where you had all these great groups playing on the same day. I know they promoter makes a ton more money with this current multi day format, but man it was great seeing all the heavy hitters play one after another throughout the day!

    I remember when I was young going to Lollapalooza's, going, how cool would it be if we had those big multiday festivals they have in other countries.  Now it's, why can't they all play on the same day :)

    I suppose too, there were alot more rock bands kicking back in the 80s/90s, and they weren't used to getting so much for playing live shows.   I doubt the ticket price for the festival above would be any different than 3 days than it would be for 1 day, because those are some of the biggest bands left in Rock (and the amount of big rock bands left keeps diminishing).  Ticket are going to be insane for that I would guess?  $1000+?

    I despise festivals, but damn. There is simply no way that I'm going to miss this one. Wonder if there will be more opener bands. Kinda hope not.
    1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th
    1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California
    Nothing since then. I suck.
    2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights
    2022- Oakland Night 2
    2024 Sacramento, CA

    If they follow the same format as the Dessert Trip, there are only 2 acts per night

    Perfect. Have never gotten into Tool, so will show up late for that night. I guess I'm assuming they will go first.

    I would take Tool over any of the others.

    I am having a hard time accepting that Tool is a legacy act like the others on this bill.

    This has to be the greatest line up ever for a festival. Even with one act from each night, it's still an amazing line up.

    They are definitely the odd men out.

    If you’re going anyway it’s a no brainer to check out Tool
