I know that at Fenway in 2016 they actually took up the floor on the field during the off day (stage stayed up). But other concerts are scheduled on back-to-back days there, so I dunno.

I think PJ wants the day in between. I don’t think they’ve done back to back nights in a few years.

The tiles are removed from the field each night, even in cases of back-to-back shows. The grass is watered and and gets some sun. They played back to back shows this year at Amsterdam and were scheduled to do the same in London.

They were out of them yesterday. Also out of three of the posters and XLs in most t-shirts. Maybe they got more stuff today though.

I counted 7 merch areas inside the venue and the line was at least 50 deep when I took my e-flo pee break. It’s unbelievable that the demand basically continuous for 5 days.

:thumbsup:

They won't. I expect to be driving for two hours from MKE, get about two miles down Irving Park, and then get a cancellation notification.

I saw someone buy 7 setlist shirts yesterday. His family should be set for the next two Christmases.
