Guess I shall be trying to make my way across the pond to the old country again, this year. Brussels and Berlin for sure, maybe Dresden, Munich, Stuttgart and/or Cologne as well.

I guess that official update pretty much nails it so far as this tour goes. Shame, it still comes from northern England, it just doesn't play there much. Double shame as I'll be 50 on the 10th so figured I'd endeavour to catch at least one show, but Dresden on the 10th is as fanciful as being afford to stay over a night in London, care assistant wages don't cover that s**t so that's that. Enjoy the shows folks, see you in 2021 for the XL tour.

Australia dates suggest there is still hope for anywhere in the world (especially New Zealand and Latin America I'd say). The could even squeeze in two South African dates between Utrecht and Melbourne if they would want to.

I would love to go but i can't - no money, no one to go with, and even if that was not an issue, my massive anxiety problems stand in the way, who knows if i'll ever get to a gig :(

Anyway i'll be glued to the forum for lots of reviews, pics and videos from everyone!
50% of me loves going to gigs, 50% of me wants to kill everyone I don't know well who tries to talk to me at gigs. Most of the time they're interrupting another conversation, stopping me going to the loo or being creepy in some undefinable manner.

I can understand why it's sometimes easier to just stay at home! :(

Turns out you don't need to go anywhere!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

(My best friend lives in Melbourne, had to share the good news with her. Sadly, she has to go without me. Poor duck!)

Yeah, probably some promoter who has complained so these are likely the 100 % confirmed ones as of now and the rest will reappear when promoters give green light for ticket sales.

Looks like Australia and Brussels both dropped off, as well as a handful of others - Utrecht for example.

I guess this is why I could buy tickets for Paris and London but not Brussels and Stockholm so far.

Fully agree. Perhaps some of them are getting bombarded with currenty unplanned for requests, already ... :wink: ...

... although, all the festivals are announcing them on their posters ...

Maybe, things look different tomorrow again.

It's new on their list, but not new news

Odd that the other festivals aren't on their list either

Not that's a surprise. Huge un. They never did something like this before (aren't they?).

Ticket links are now added for the German dates. Relax people, Chris or whoever it is updating the page was a bit too quick, the promoters simply need a few days to organise ticket sales. I would be extremely surprised if not all previous dates are confirmed within a week or so.

Forgot to answer this, but yes that's precisely what I think - imagine for example Ancienne Belgique, normally selling out their first evening (2000 tickets) in a week or so when Sisters are announced - the question is, did they get 500 or maybe 1000 irritating calls per day after the announcement on the Sisters Live page, and were they then happy with the Sisters announcing it prematurely or not? :P :lol:

@Euphoria: If that's the case, then both promoters and band should be happy. But for the first time it's up-side-down situation - official site put information BEFORE we know it from this forum.

In the case of Brussels, both band and promoter know they will sell very good, that's why there is a double date from the beginning.
Maybe the first time we see so *many* dates on the Live News page first, but otherwise it happens regularly that Live News page is the first source. Especially real surprises, like Las Vegas, Moscow and Istanbul in 2006 for example.

(regarding that possible space before Dresden, they play Munich 11th so no space left if keeping their touring rate)

Of course, Brussel (AB) was always sold-out. Same with "risky" places, like mentioned by you. Nontheless, if HLers have found out about some gigs, then later it was confirmed on official site; our findings were 100% correct.

Anyhow, since i waved any possibility to see them, unless they will play in home town - Wroclaw, it's irrelevant to me; if they gonna play here - i' going to go, if not - have fun rest of folks.
