Feels weird after such a long time, but I do want to see a lot of Gigaton tracks on the setlists...
Going to be very interesting.

I'm nervous for live performances, I have more faith this time that they can get them right but there were some real trainwrecks for the last couple of records

They sure did. Hopefully the boots sound better though.

Can't wait!

Also, 5 stars from me for Gigaton. One of my all-time PJ favourites, even after two years.

Maybe they'll feel like they've got something to prove.

Perhaps the $1500 seats just didn’t sell like they anticipated?

Still a solid 4 for me. Who Ever Said remains a favorite. Half of the record still gets regular play.

Other than Fresno each show looks to have sold well. Getting good seats to certain shows is still difficult, even with the fan to fan exchange. Especially the east coast and Canadian shows in September.

Since they can finally promote Gigaton on the road will there be TV appearances?

They just had 2 non-show dates in LA. You guys think they did some recordings for Kimmel/Fallon orso?

Or did they just spend 2 days in Andrew Watts basement :bammer:

I would love some TV appearances of DOTC or Quick Escape...

Yeah, why sell more records to a bigger base when you can just sell the same records three times to your current base?? ;)

That honestly looks like backstage rehearsal set up. I only think this because there have been a few photos of Ed backstage and the flooring looks the same and you can kind of see a fridge of sorts. Klinghoffer also streamed live last night his set and backstage talking about it all..

Yay social media.
