Maybe they play Fenway this year. There were rumors in previous years that PJ had holds there (2011 and 2013 if I recall).

I'll go with Lolla (either the tour kick off or one of the first few dates), Montreal and Toronto (also at the start), Cleveland, STL, KC, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Denver/Red Rocks, Vegas. Probably 12 or 13 shows over three weeks.

If this does get announced in April or May, they're certainly doing a better job than usual keeping things quiet.

My 100% guess is Tampa, Atlanta, Nashville, Little Rock, Houston, Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal.

This tour has me nervous. I've got a local wedding on 8/16, and then I'll be in NYC from 8/20-8/23. Something in my normal driving range seems all but assured, but it's likely these dates will be in August as well, otherwise I think Cameron would have tried to make it work.

My totally based on nothing speculation is Chicago, Toronto, an East Coast two night stand in either NYC, Philly or Boston, Columbus or Cleveland (maybe a return to Blossom?), Denver, St Louis, Nashville, Indy or Detroit, Houston.

Supposedly, the Lolla headliners will be announced shortly before 3 day passes go on sale at 10:00am. The first piece of the touring puzzle may go in place tomorrow.

Lolla tweeted no headliners tomorrow. Greg? Kot (Chicago Tribune music writer) says lineup Wednesday.
The two legs last fall started Friday nights so maybe they do Lolla on the Friday as the first show. Or start in Toronto, KC or STL and play Lolla Saturday or Sunday?

Lolla lineup in tiny print. Is PJ the fifth name?

Maybe? I'm not too sure why they'd play Lolla though. Plus, that would knock out other cities within so many hundred miles, right?

I guess if they did tour it'd be surrounding the 20th anniversary of Vitalogy?

I'm itching to see what they do. Houston could work in Sept/October. Currently, there are large blocks of open dates for Houston's two main venues--Cynthia Woods and Toyota Center.

Pretty sure the 5th name is Skrillex.

No Lolla

Just out of curiosity, why does everyone think this will be a Fall tour, as opposed to late summer? The Soundgarden sitch makes me think Cameron simply couldn't make it work this time, this their touring plans will overlap with NIN/SG. Or has there been something else to suggest otherwise?

It's all rumors at this point. August or September makes more sense to me too.

Or PJ could have tentatively had a tour planned at the same time as Soundgarden, centered around Lolla, and then scrapped it, who knows.

The only reason I have any hope for shows this year is from the email Rich Russo posted last week. PJ usually gives us 2-3 months notice on tours, so if a tour announcement is coming soon (April, or May) then August seems to fit that time frame.

Given that they probably want a few weeks off after Europe, I would say the most likely scenario is a late August/September tour.

I could still see the possibility of ACL, which would push a potential tour back to the fall.

At this point, I would be happy with just about anything.

I thought Matt Cameron is no longer the drummer in Soundgarden. Matt Chamberlain is their full time drummer now. Overlap isn't a problem.

Cameron is still their drummer. Chamberlain is touring with them this year though.

HOLYSH!TFU(K!!! I'M THERE!!!

Fake.

Couldn't even play along for one day... oh well, maybe RM is dead.

Any new rumors? If it wasn't for that email Rich Russo posted, I wouldn't think there would be any more shows this year.

I read a rumor regarding "negotiationing a date" at the Klipsch Center in Noblesville, IN.
