Summer Tour 2024

I thought initially it would be a co-bill for this reason. But I guess not?

Even when they did DUMB tour it was 25% full

Very odd place for them to book

Even if it was UM/tDB/STS9 all together, i dont think it would be more than 50% full

Big Top is the proper STL summer venue for their current size. Chesterfield Ampitheater is even too big at this point

Gives the King Gizz fans that couldn’t find tickets something to do.

Eggy opening.

This is bad news

swb0nd · April 30, 2024, 5:27pm

i know. probably going back into the studio

FussyManDutch · April 30, 2024, 5:28pm

But wait, there’s more:

We have a couple dates in September that have already been announced, one show around Halloween time and our NYE run left for remainder of 2024.

Is it? I hadn’t bothered getting tix since I didn’t think they’d sell out the civic center

cryan024 · April 30, 2024, 5:30pm

Ha, no idea, i am just trying to imagine any situation where someone goes to see UM over King Gizzard when they are both in the same town on the same night

asp029 · April 30, 2024, 5:30pm

Feel like Q1 and Q2 were really heavy compared to recent years, but even with a “single” Halloween show and a 3-4 NYE run, that is a v light back half of the year.

Anybody got me for the 23rd on Chicago? Need a miracle already.

In 2019 I drove 1.5 hours to see UM at Asbury Park over a local Gizz show in Philly.

that’s awesome they got a night at salt shed!

snuckaskitchen · April 30, 2024, 5:42pm

very surprised to see the Shed on there. TWT

cryan024 · April 30, 2024, 5:43pm

Yea, i am not even being a hater. These are just way too ambitious

Unless Eggy is a lot bigger than I realize

jcubson · April 30, 2024, 5:44pm

Pretty sure they’re playing outdoors at the fairgrounds too

cryan024 · April 30, 2024, 5:45pm

Maybe the size of the venue doesnt really matter to the promoter, though

I have never been on that side of the business, so not sure how that works, and when i have worked at veneus they were always club sized. Does it cost more to book larger rooms?

Edit: or is it moreso just that the space is available on the day that works

WilliamNyeberg · April 30, 2024, 5:45pm

it’s too bad august/early september is already so busy. there are a bunch of fun dates on this release. these bros gotta start announcing shit earlier
