Sales were awful here. I posted a screenshot of the venue's available seats a few weeks ago.

The real question is were the sales based on covid fears or lack of Ovaltine consumption? Also, Consider the fact that Temple Balls are fully vaccinated and hung like pack mules.

Since the pills are round, shouldn't it be called "Roundtine" ?    🤪

So, are we ever gonna get the new dates?

Or some sort of communication?  I don't think I have even gotten an email that my date (Red Bank) was postponed.  Anyone else who's got tickets to Red Bank get any communication?  Maybe I just missed it.

I still haven't gotten anything about the Los Angeles show.

Honestly, if I weren't here or on Facebook, I wouldn't know about the postponement.

So glad I didn't buy tickets, I had a feeling this was inevitable.

That was my reason for holding off on tickets.

I just think we need to be patient. I'm not ever worried about it. Whether they announce the new shows or not, they're still ages away from happening.

I feel like they'd want this settled by the release date of the album, no?
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related

I don’t think anyone knows anything at this point, how could we?. The safe bet would be Spring at the soonest. These unsure times flat out SUCK! Just grateful to have new music still coming out.

Hey Bosk...

Since the tour is delayed, do you happen to have any information on if JP had a setlist idea in mind already set for the tour?

Yep, still have nothing on the LA show.  The ticket section of my account on AXS says it's still stated to go on 10/30.

I would venture to guess pretty confidently that JP had a setlist idea in mind already.

I am very confident that they will have had the set list firmed up a few months ago.  As far as what it is, I have no idea.  I haven't asked.

I believe that at least Petrucci and Myung are not vaxxed. I'd be shocked if they are, especially Petrucci. My guess is they aren't and don't wanna deal with negative test BS for every show.

I am not going that far into speculating.

I actually think JP is just completely bummed because that momentum and desire to want to play the new album to people has been stopped. It reminds me of that momentum when MP decided he wanted to take a break from the band, and JP likely felt upset as MP asked just as their wheels were turning at a good pace. The majority of the band agreed with JP, and MP had to either stay or go, the decision was his and he chose to leave.

I see this postponement as the same feeling. Only, this time, the majority of the band disagreed with JP's feelings and thoughts.

I think it's nothing more and nothing less. JP is likely still in his fresh wounds from the disappointment in the decision. So, that emotion would still be more vulnerable to being expressed, as he does sound extremely disappointed based on his tone in that interview.


I am also extremely disappointed. But am looking at bright side for me because I won't have to rush listening through the  album, mainly the epic, to fully enjoy them Live.

This doesn't make any sense. I actually agree in part, I'd bet on JP being unvaxxed, but he's the one that wants to tour. As he said, he was voted down, and he's the one that'd endure the "bullshit."

Just got my red bank email as well, interesting that the refund option seems to already be available and open until November 19th even though they don't have the new dates yet.  If I had a crap seat, I may go for the refund and the purchase again on the new annoucnement (just in case I can't make it) but since I have front row, I don't want to give it up.  I just hope it's not a rare chance the new date doesn't work out for me.

It appears JP leans right and I am guessing people are assuming that means he's unvaxxed?  I'm not sure, but if he's pushing to tour then it seems likely he is vaxxed, but it's possible he isn't.  I'd imagine not being vaxxed makes touring much more difficult and questionable though. Unless maybe that is the reason why the other members don't want to tour... because a member is unvaxxed and means the tour is more likely to get put to a halt from an infection?

Yeah, it's strictly prejudice on my part. The dude's done a few things that have caused me to not like him, and in conjunction with what we've gleaned from him re his politics, he just strikes me as an anti-vax, "personal responsibility" kind of guy. If I had to guess that's the way I'd go, but it is just a guess.

Was about to say the same thing.  Who knows if he's vaxxed or not - but he's the one who really wanted to tour - so that argument makes no sense.

I just received an email from Ticketmaster, regarding the San Diego show, saying they received the funds from the "Event Organizer" and have refunded my order.  Says I should see the funds in 7-10 business days.  So I guess the San Diego show is just cancelled.  I'm hoping they reschedule it for another venue.  I'm now starting to wonder if the tour will take place at all now in Feb/Mar - maybe that's why they haven't announced any new dates - maybe the band is still at odds about whether to tour in the spring or not..

I wonder if the gave some of the promoters the option to opt out of the tour. Maybe the San Diego promoter did just that.
