hmm, 36 countries? man, that would be incredible, but I just don't see it happening... on their last big run, they were looking at maybe 25 shows, even counting the multiple dates in some spots... plus, if you think about it, they probably hadn't even locked in the route two months ago since they were just starting to wrap up the new album... I remember seeing some fake dates floating around online last year for a show in San Francisco on September 12th, but it turned out to be just some fans messing around for fun... 🙂
but hey, we'll see what happens, I guess 🙂
Brian Foster2 said:It wasn't funny or even remotely okay... honestly, they had to scrap the rest of their US tour because the organizers totally messed up. I mean, when you've got 80,000 people at an Austin festival and nine people end up suffocating against the barricades, you aren't going to blame the band first, right? It's just such a tragedy that it happened during "Daughter," which is one of their most mellow tracks. They won't even touch that date or mention that Austin show again.
As for them coming to the States, the official forum posts mentioned Washington, D.C., originally slated for September, but now I'm seeing stuff about June, so who knows. Usually, a tour kicks off about a week after the new album drops, but we don't even have a release date for that yet.
I'm just really stoked to hear some actual decent music from a band that picked up a Grammy Award last year for lifetime achievement and best improvisation. Knowing only about 15 artists or groups ever get that kind of recognition, they truly deserve all the hype!
Yeah, I know that story well... just ten days ago I actually caught them playing three times in four days...
Speaking of rumors, where'd you see that? About the September and June dates? Can you give me some details or a link?

🙂 🙂
Sam Alvarez7, if some big-shot celebrity like LeBron James brings them over to the States 🙂 by announcing a massive US tour within the next month, you're buying me a beer, deal? 🙂
boldeagle3 said:Pearl Jam... those tragedies at the Roskild festival, I think that's what it was called🤔
Yeah, that's definitely how you spell it...
boldeagle3 said:So, which band are you actually waiting for? 😁
The one that played in Vienna back in 2000... right before that tragedy where nine people lost their lives at a show in Denmark about ten days later... and now they're supposedly touring Europe again.
boldeagle3 said:The papers were all over the Sundance Film Festival lineup last week—listing names like Kylie Minogue, Enrique Iglesias, Anastacia, Elton John, and R.E.M... just a massive pile of big names.
Nothing about R.E.M. though... plus, half those big summer shows in LA usually end up getting canceled anyway...
It’s not just rumors for the sake of it, I'm honestly just getting ahead of myself because I'm excited. I've been waiting on this one band forever, so I was just wondering if anyone else had caught wind of the news. 🙂
So, let's talk concert rumors and tour dates for this year... anyone heard anything juicy lately?
Word on the street is Sting might be hitting up Washington, D.C. around October..
And what's the deal with the Manic Street Preachers playing at The Factory?
Does anyone have any "unofficial" intel from Nota about upcoming European tours? Come on, spill the tea with us 😁 😁 😁
Let's go, rumors, rumors, rumors!!!
Lincoln said:MODS: can we move this thread over to the marathon subforum?
I'm with you on that, 🙂
I just figured I'd start a fresh thread since the marathon guys seemed pretty quiet lately...
Hey everyone...
I’ve been scrolling through that "Marathoners—Stay Healthy" thread below and man, I am loving it... looks like there are a ton of runners in here. I haven't managed to catch up on everything yet, but my head is already spinning with questions, so I figured I'd just start a new thread...
So, I've been doing some casual running lately over by Central Park, 5.0 miles, just keeping it low-key. A couple of days ago, I actually tackled my first half marathon, the one in the Grand Canyon 🙄
Those climbs caught me totally off guard since I usually just stick to the flat paths in the park, so I started feeling the burn right around the 13-8.7 miles mark, but I still managed to cross the finish line in just under 1:55 🙂
One thing that really blew my mind was this guy, probably in his mid-60s, who just casually cruised past me at mile 10 🙏
Anyway, it's been two days since the race and I'm feeling pretty wiped out—total muscle soreness and all that, which makes sense since it was a longer distance than what I'm used to and all those hills were brutal... My only real concern is this weird sensation in the tendons behind my knee. It doesn't exactly hurt, but it feels like it's "skipping" or clicking whenever I go down stairs... it's a pretty uncomfortable feeling...😢
Has anyone else dealt with something like this? I can't tell if I've actually done some damage or if it's just a "normal" reaction to pushing myself harder than usual during a race?
The reason I'm asking is because I'm planning to hit the trails at Yosemite in about 10 days 9.9 miles, so I'm really hoping to bounce back quickly so I can get back to my light jogs in Central Park by the end of the week 🙂
That's about it for now... cheers... 👋
Oh, and obviously, I'm aiming to conquer a full marathon one day 🙂
