European Tour Sales = Desaster

IIRC the 2 year insurance thing came from a quote from a member of The Who who mentioned this as a reason that they hadn't gone back to cities they'd cancelled at that time. People then assumed this must be the case for PJ, given they didn't go back to the missed citied on this tour. 

Whilst no one can verify it as being correct, its a fairly reasonable assessment as to what is likely to be the case too given the fact the cancelled places didnt get shows this time around. Makes a lot of sense really, and would explain things quite well. 

I guess we'll never know for sure but then not touring Amsterdam is a real curveball to the usual plans. Yet they also didnt tour Italy which is also a rarity. Always a chance we are putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5.

I just hope it isnt the case and two nights next summer in the 02 arena is feasible.....LOL

Why doesn't someone just reach out to the Ten Club for some clarification. I would imagine it is information they either have or could very easily obtain.

It’s odd that they skipped Amsterdam with the two-show-per-city model they are largely doing, when that is one of the few established cities in London with history of selling out two nights.

If there is a 2 year agreement I imagine this is specific to the contract between the band and the insurer. Also if it does exist it has to be on a city basis and not a country basis, otherwise the band wouldn’t have returned to the US in 2023 after cancelling Sacremento and Vegas in 2022…..

Maybe they and the promoter booking them, were confident in, from the data they had, that 2x Berlin shows and 2x Barcelona shows etc would be successful on the same or a higher level. Ziggo Dome is what, 15-17.000? Then think to instead sell 22.000 tickets for two nights in Berlin.

Maybe they just wanted to do something different

When you want different, you play to 55-60.000 in Gothenburg, Sweden. The band knows this. 

Well, hopefully you get what they already know.

@seanclax has blurted it out on several instances like stone-cold known facts, so he should know the specifics I guess. 

Dunno why you would name me. But I guess your a childish prick.
I think I mentioned it once and it was a consensus of a group discussion that you clearly wernt part of.
Wind your neck in

Hey man, just ignore that Spiritual Chaos person. He just lives on here to argue with people and  complain. Don’t let him get to you. Just mute him.  The board would be better if we just ignored his posts. 

You are way too obsessed. Creepy stuff.

You keep proving our point. Time to log off for a bit and go outside .

The band will most certainly be back to Europe soon.  They love you guys and they know you love them.  The ticket pricing was clearly a miscalculation and I think they probably know it now.  So I imagine there will be a revised strategy for next time but they will most assuredly be back enthusiastically.  

I am a huge fan of your thinking
