[Penny Lane]

BH that's incredible! thanks!!

So, since they played the most shows in 2008 since 2003, Im pretty sure they arent going to have a major tour this year

[ALady]

Or a minor one...

[Janet]

I think some positive tour vibes are definitely in order....I am mentally banishing all negative "no tour" energy...

go ahead and make it 5 months with no word.

[SplatSplatSplat]

Really.  5 Months and not a peep. You know, aside from the releases.  I don't get it.  At this point something, ANYTHING, would be awesome.

Such as:

1)  Are the band members still alive?
2)  Are they enjoying the time spent off?
3)  Has anyone dyed their hair bright orange?  Or Pink?  Tommy???
4)  Did anyone pull any good April Fools Jokes on other band members?

It just seems like with this glorious interweb and connectivity it allows with the fans, that we would get some if minimal updates every now and again - besides releases.  I can figure those out on my own.  

Just, you know, a "what's up" to all those folks that pay for our food, rent, sex toys, etc.

I don't feel like I'm owed it necessarily.  I guess I'm brainstorming for a job I don't have.

i know they did the shows overseas and what not earlier this year but i guess we might be asking too much. enjoy the time off guys, lord knows i could use some.

i check this baby everyday for something. maybe changing the evil urges layout would be a start. time to spread the wings and fly!

I am beginning to worry....could it be that Jim is still recovering from his injuries? I mean, he seemed to be in great form on NYE, but you never know....I AM DYING FOR DATES!  We live in NJ and plan to travel wherever just to bring our 6 y.o. daughter, who is also a massive fan  : ;D :D ;) :)

such dedicated parents... brings a tear to my eye

[tdb810]

she was so devastated when Jim hurt himself, she sent him a homemade get well card.....this is truly a remarkable story, which i hadn't shared previously because I was afraid word would get out and too many people would try to "copycat" but I feel trust in the "forum.    Anyway, I sent the get well card to the management company, flatiron, in the city.  About 3 weeks later I received a Fedex containing a note from Jim thanking her for the "super sweet get well wishes" and two amazing seats for NYE.  We sat in the "family" section right behind Patrick's parents, who were totally cool and friendly, and my husband hi-fived Patrick's Mom during Run Thru.  It was truly one of the most amazing experiences of our lives.  Our daughter, of course, was a bit bent that she was not coming to the concert, so we have promised, the next outdoor show she will be there.....are these guys too good to be true or what? PLEASE GIVE US DATES!!!!!!!!!

they are so accessible- which is really beautiful- they love their fans and deep down just seem to be great/kind/loving/friendly individuals.  what a great story- your daughter sounds like a sweetheart too.

[AMightyCaporal]

i too hope that people don't try to follow suit just to score some free tickets- but reach out to make contact for the right reasons- true fans know that though

[pawpaw]

...my husband hi-fived Patrick's Mom during Run Thru.  

;D That's rad! I'd love to meet Patrick's Mom!

That's a great story.  :)

[slh1089]

any chance that they may make a random festival appearance?

[ms. yvon]

This thread got me wondering about how many shows they have done each year...
TOTAL
681 Full Band   86 Jim Solo
