If we wouldn't have your fine statements we wouldn't have even noticed that there has been no announcement today,..... so far
Don't worry I'll be around every now and then on rs.com, this site and other sites>Quote

Well, you really must pay more attention then, because heaven forbid there actually is an announcement, and I'm not around to draw your attention to it, then you'd be in serious danger of missing it, and the excitement, and the ticket prices, and the tour itself even, and just about everything in fact !! And then you'd be mighty pissed off !!

This is the usual way it is happening:
1. Announcement
2. Ticket sales
3. Shows

I.e. first show dates and tour concept is given a "go" by the band, with a given number of shows (18-20).

Unless they move forward some shows, it will be early June. But I do know they moved some US shows from July to June, probably to make space for the UK stopover.
So they won't be doing west coast shows in June like we have been hearing?Quote
bv
Yes. I assume they do East coast US early June, then UK two weeks, then the rest of the summer in NA. They did the same with SarsStock Toronto in the middle of the European tour. From Prague to Toronto and back to Germany with a minimum of crew. And generic festival stage. They had a private plane and made it with comfort. I spent 3 days on travel and all my extra miles catching that show. I was in the air 2 days and in Toronto only a day or so. This time they will have more time I think.

That's not true. They rehearsed quite extensively for the December shows and most people though they played well and the shows were good. same situation here. They'll rehearse for meore than a week. The quality of the product does mater. If they suck,people won't come.Quote

Those 70 year-olds are in an envious position. They just have to rehearse for a week or two and then show up and play. The quality of the product doesn't matter anymore.
People will pay whatever it takes just to see them on stage one more time. It's a crazy world outhere...

Since they won't be able to do 18-20 shows in June, I assume UK literally is a "stopover" for 2 weeks around Glastonbury? And the US tour continues in July?
