I hope they add more :rant:

I am with you on Cleveland. For some reason they absolutely refuse to come to town. I had to drive to Cincinatti to see them in November. I wish I knew what they had against Cleveland as I would like to see them again but don't want to have to drive 4 hours again to do so.

Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Acquiesce on January 12, 2005, 02:44:10 PM I hope they add a Philly date.
Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Cornell on January 12, 2005, 02:58:26 PM Yay! A Rochester date! : ok: Hmmm - maybe I'll take my hubby this time as he's a Slash fan. ;D

Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: billsguy on January 12, 2005, 04:24:16 PM same on cleveland, i drove to detroit to see them at the state theater, which was amazing, but I don't understand it. Cinci, Cleveland, Columbus and/or Dayton are usually hit by most bands on a national tour...
Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Eric on January 12, 2005, 05:58:50 PM I went to State Theater as well, not a bad drive, but drove to Totonto-too long of a drive-it's funny, there are several venues here in Cleveland-Convocation center would seem perfect-I know a lot of people who want to see them, but are not die hard enough like me to make a drive out of town, which I understand-I really thought they would swing by here, but I know sometimes they add dates, like they are now overseas-they add dates here and there-we'll see.
Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Falcon on January 12, 2005, 11:44:38 PM Giving arenas a go, huh?
I wish the boys luck but I gotta say it's a bit ambitious and probably a huge mistake... Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: metallex78 on January 12, 2005, 11:56:01 PM Giving arenas a go, huh? I wish the boys luck but I gotta say it's a bit ambitious and probably a huge mistake... Why is it a mistake? It's not as though they're jumping to playing stadiums, and these guys do seem to have quite a large following. I just wish they'd change up their setlist a little, it's good that they've added some songs recently, but they should vary it a little more. Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Jizzo on January 13, 2005, 01:21:06 AM i doubt thats the entire tour, there will be more shows

I wish the boys luck but I gotta say it's a bit ambitious and probably a huge mistake... Depends on who they tour with too. If they can get QOTSA on board, then it might be a good idea. /jarmo Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Naupis on January 13, 2005, 10:10:15 AM Quote Depends on who they tour with too. If they can get QOTSA on board, then it might be a good idea. One of the guys in the band, I forget who had said something about a Jet, QTSA type of tour. If that's the case it is definitely a good idea as I think they could get enough fans to make it work. Otherwise, it's going to come off making the band look bad playing to less than half filled arenas.

I wish the boys luck but I gotta say it's a bit ambitious and probably a huge mistake... Why is it a mistake? These are 20,000 seaters they're playing here stateside, not many rock bands these days can fill that size of venue in the US. None outside of nostalgic acts at least... I have an inherent dislike for arena rock shows in general, just no vibe or intimacy... Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: tomass74 on January 14, 2005, 01:51:44 AM I like them around 10,000 max indoors... But outdoors a Great Woods show would kick ass this year.. That would be good for some tailgating...
Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: D on January 14, 2005, 01:58:16 AM do any websites have any presale packages?
where u join and order presale before it hits general public? that atlanta show looks cool in april im only bout 4 hours away Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Eric on January 14, 2005, 03:00:56 AM This tour has not been officially announced-until it is, there won't be any pre-sale
Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: tomass74 on January 14, 2005, 04:07:31 PM I used the pre-sale for the Manchester NH show and got shitty seats on the side of the stage..Im own my own next time..

Ever seen a concert in an arena where they put the stage in the middle? /jarmo Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: Falcon on January 16, 2005, 08:06:39 PM Who says they have to fill the arenas in order to play there?

I'm kinda bummed they don't have a Philly show but I think I'll be going to Scranton and maybe Holmdel, NJ. Yeah it looks like they are trying to hit some places that they haven't yet. I am gonna have to travel 1 to 2 hours but it will be worth it! Title: Re: North American tour - spring 2005 Post by: November Rain 91 on February 23, 2005, 04:06:21 PM thank GOD they are finally coming to Cleveland, ;D :beer: even if it is almost 3 months away (may 17). i was beginning to think they'd never come dammit. sweetness? :smoking:

Pleasant, MI Aug. 12 - Germain Amp. - Columbus, OH Aug. 13 - Tweeter Center - Chicago, IL Aug. 15 - Oneida Bingo Casino - Greenbay, WI Aug. 19 ?
