Sorry should have been North America - to be more preciseQuote

so where will the 18th show in the US be?
14 shows in USA scheduled to date
3 shows in Canada scheduled to date
Are you suggesting 4 more shows to be scheduled in the USA?

Yes should be Vancouver but maybe they will have to wait til the fall, if so it will be sold out.
would be nice, but I don't think they will make that excursion this time.Quote

Vancouver.

To determine the 18th North American date, you have to examine the tour dates and determine which added show would not generate a string of too many gigs falling on every other day. They have 3 dates in Chicago and 2 in Boston (June 12 and 14), so you would figure they would add another one in Boston, but that would mean playing in Boston on June 12, 14, and 16 and then Philadelphia on the 18th. My guess is that with plenty of time until Glastonbury, they will add another in Philadelphia on the 20th, so that people from the New York and D.C. areas will travel to that one.

I doubt they'd be playing Philadelphia on both the 20th and the 21st. They haven't done full-length shows on consecutive days in nearly 10 years, since August 2003 (Utrecht and Rotterdam on the 15th and 16th).
Washington was supposed to get a show. Maybe they could do one night at the Verizon Center on the 24th or 25th (Bruno Mars is booked there on the 22nd, One Direction on the 23rd).

My money's on May13th in Vegas (although hopes lessened by the fact that MGM's site bill's the 11th as a "one night only" concert...

Or..May 22nd or 23rd in Vancouver. Like Montreal, Vancouver was widely speculated
and would sell out quick...
I'm liking the chances of Vancouver better.. either way would be a go for me.

Good lord don`t say that...I gave up, and I just spent my discretionary money on the BOND 50 Blu Ray set!

It is amazing. It has over 120 hours of special features. That doesn`t include the actual movies. I`ll be watching this stuff for years!
On the first disc, for Dr. No, some of the extra`s include footage of all of the world premiere events. Fantastic stuff. I`m just barely getting into it but if your a Bond aficionado it`s pretty amazing.

Well, now that I have a blu ray player and I think about the $600 tickets I didn't spend my money on (I love the number 85), I just may have to add this to my library

I love the number 69 better.
US $69.85 Ticket + US $15.15 Fees = US $85.00

Treac, that Bond 50 disc set, is it only in Blu Ray? What did it cost?

No, in DVD as well, but if you're going to spend the money anyway, go all the way I say.
Done and ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL job in restoration. There is actually a vignette in the first disc on the process. Fantastic. Dr. No looks like it was filmed yesterday and I'm only minorly giving you hyperbole...it's truly stunning.
The rub is that it is around $250 plus sales tax for all the discs (except missing the last movie, Skyfall but there is a placeholder for it.
HOWEVER, I purchased on Amazon.co.uk, for 65 GBPs when it when on sale so about $110 including delivery, no sales tax! I think it's a bit more than that now.
All the discs are 'region free' with the exception of Quantum of Solace, which is encoded for the Euro zone. I don't have an 'all region' blu ray player but was able to rationalize that saving almost $200 was worth it (plus Solace has to be the worst movie in the entire franchise, so no loss).
Here is the listing...
[www.amazon.co.uk]
if you're not from UK, they take something like 20% off in the basket, just before you go to the final pay screen. It's a bit more than when I purchased it, but still a good deal I think.
Good luck with it!

I didn't realize they were playing in Philadelphia on the 21st, I was only aware of their playing on the 18th. Because I missed out on the $150 tix for the 14th in Boston, I was holding out hope that they might add a third show in Boston for Sunday the 16th, but I doubt it because the higher end tickets aren't selling for the 14th and also because I'm sure they wouldn't want to string together too many dates falling every other day as well. But, who knows, with 4 days between the second Boston show and the first Philly show, I would kind of like to hang on to a bit of hope.
