Yes, they've done that in the past.
What coming tour are you talking about? There isn't one planned, at least officially, right now. In fact, nobody is touring this year that requires that many stages.

IF they tour, they probably won't leapfrog. They'll do what they did this year, a few shows here, a few shows there. Leapfrogging was back in the days when they would play 4-5 shows a week - they were still young enough to pull that off physically.
Don't forget though that: 1.) it wasn't that long ago, and, 2.) they did take 2+ years doing it.
Now they likely won't due to their age, and to the INSANE cost of doing it. They've already greatly cut their captil with their current light-weight stage, I'm sure that thing costs WAY less than their SW, VL, BTB, 40L and ABB stages - WAY less.
They've also got the insane ticket prices not to mention all the other attendant merchandising from which to pay the insane costs.
If they tour, they're going to just use the same one stage they have to cut costs even more.
An educated guess on your part? Or, you know that this is the case?
Oh, and the tickets prices won't go anywhere but up, up, and awaaaaaay....
also keep in mind the tongue stage was a indoor arena stage ,which when and if they do stadiums again(hopeful thinking)it would be a much bigger stage.Quote
