No Seattle?

Post by 72ndguy » Fri Mar 05, 2010 5:49 am

So the tour is hitting Vancouver, Kennewick (!), Billings and Casper, but nothing at all in Seattle? Rob was here in 07 with Ozzy, and they sold out Key Arena. But now we don't even get a stop? And Alice hasn't been in town since I've been back in the concert game, at least a few years. Is there something about Seattle that Alice and Rob don't like? :/

That is a question for your local promoter (or promoters), actually.

vancouver, bc is 2.5 hours away and kennwick is 3.5 hours away. it doesn't make sense to book a show in between those two cities. both are well within driving distances, therefore you have no excuse.

I struggle a bit with that reasoning,Matt. I've seen many shows in the Milwaukee area and slightly beyond and there is always a show in the Chicagoland area and sometimes they are before or after one another. That is a significantly shorter drive between these two locations than what you state above. Logistics?? Fan base??

Yes,I do understand that aspect.

Im also noticing a pattern develop of more "festival" dates this time around then in years past. (nothing to do with this topic - Im just saying)
