  2. we need some announcement
  3. We will get leaks of a few dates before the official announcement happens. Shouldn't be too far away ... JT tour was announced about Jan 9th I think?
  4. If it’s announced next week I hope they don’t go on sale the same week.
  5. i can't wait
  6. Thanks for the insight, I hadn't seen that article. Makes me SICK.

    Welcome to "slow ticketing," a shift toward slowing the sales to human speed. By requiring consumers to register in advance through Verified Fan and pricing tickets to reflect what consumers are willing to pay, Ticketmaster is reshaping its primary marketplace to look more like the secondary.

    Pricing tickets higher isn't without its pitfalls. (...)
    Tour organizers argue that tickets are being priced for what they would sell for on the secondary market, but the sharp increase has some fans feeling gouged.

    "The idea that a consumer is going to sit in first class with an economy ticket is a holdover from what I used to call 'rock and roll socialist pricing,'" Geiger explains.

    High prices on Ticketmaster are just "a different thing to complain about," he says, "We are slowly moving towards hopefully a market economy. And if people don't like the price of one ticket, then they can either buy a cheaper ticket or not go to the show."



    Well,

    Fuck that. If a fan wants to wait all bloody day to get the rail (or longer) they deserve a first class ticket.
  8. Hopefully there's an announcement soonish. I've been putting a bit of money aside for it! Can't wait!
  9. my dream is an orchestra live like at Abbey Road /BBC, it would be a great surprise
  10. Based on time between SOI release and I&E announcement. Should be next month or March for an announcement!
  11. Announcement later this month is looking more likely now. Maybe around the Grammy's.

    Also, possibility for more US dates (probably in July then, before August break and Europe in September).
