Just curious as to why we think we'll get western fall dates at all. Other than last year, historically they don't play the west outside of the summer, other than the weird 2021 dates due to Covid and the west/mid west fall tour last year, which didn't seem to sell all that well.

I'd love to see Denver, Vegas, Utah and SF on that list, but I'm just thinking it doesn't make sense for them, when they know they can play the regular chicago, philly, NYC, Boston venues and get a great turnout. Maybe end it in Cville?

    I know Fiddler's keeps booking shows into October, but anything post labor day in Denver is risky weather wise. I don't really want a rainy freezing cold show like we got here last year. We lucked out in October of 2021, but it was still not warm.

    10/31 - Denver
    11/1 - Something between Denver and Vegas (Albuquerque maybe. since they did Phoenix for the Super Bowl gig?)
    11/3 - Vegas
    11/4 - San Francisco
    11/7 - Columbus/Detroit
    11/8 - Toronto
    11/10-11 - MSG
    11/14 - Charlotte/Raleigh
    11/15 - Virginia Beach area (Norfolk or Hampton)
    11/17-18 - C'ville

    I could also see a scenario where they start at MSG to mark the Halloween holiday (that would be fun) and end the tour on the West Coast. Logistically, that could take Columbus/Detroit out of the equation and put something like Boston/Albany/Syracuse (probably one of the latter two) in its place:

    10/31-11/1 - MSG
    11/3 - Albany/Syracuse
    11/4 - Toronto
    11/7 - Charlotte/Raleigh
    11/8 - Virginia Beach area (Norfolk or Hampton)
    11/10-11 - C'ville
    11/14 - Denver
    11/15 - Albuquerque/Phoenix
    11/17 - Vegas
    11/18 - San Francisco
    FWIW, UVA has home football games on Nov 4, Nov 18, and Nov 25. The only schedule basketball so far is Nov 16 (a Thursday). The 10-11 dates look plausible.

    EDIT: and JPJ also has Chris Stapleton on Oct 27

    This means we can expect the official announcement right after the Gorge shows again I assume.

    We were told during the rumor period for the summer tour that Denver was getting skipped with an eye on going there in the fall. That makes sense because skipping Denver completely would be nonsensical (with Fiddler's selling like gangbusters the last few tours and doing better than some of the traditional Big Five stops). Also, if it's not possible logistically to end the tour at MSG or C'ville (as jrkarger points out may be the case), they might opt to go west rather than end it at a smaller east venue where they can't do two nights.

    Is there any reason you can think of for the prices already being high other than the hotels already being tipped off that the band is coming? I know it's a holiday weekend, but that by itself doesn't seem like it would be enough.

    I googled and couldn’t find anything.

    It would frankly be shocking to me if C'ville is skipped again. They've toured in November the last two years (although I would only consider last year a true fall tour) and passed it over both times. Plus, Virginia was completely skipped this summer, with nothing for the Virginia Beach area (the closest the band will get is last week's Wilmington shows) and the typical Bristow stop being a Merriweather stop instead.

    New Warehouse pit process. Didn't see this anywhere else on here yet.

    06.07.23
    Warehouse GA Pit First Entry Registration

    Starting with the Forest Hills Stadium show on 6/9/23 the Warehouse will implement a new online registration system for First Entry for Warehouse Member GA Pit ticketholders only. Members who have been confirmed for GA Pit tickets will receive an email linking to a simple registration form that may be filled out once for each ticket that is in the member’s original ticket order. A limited number of places in the First Entry line will be allocated for each event and confirmations will be emailed out to the registered email address on the morning of each show containing a single-use QR code and the allocated queue number for each ticket. The officially registered First Entry line will gain entry to the venue before unregistered ticket holders. We hope that you enjoy this new approach to keeping First Entry fair and equitable.

    Wonder if this is a response to people reusing pit wristbands from previous shows.

    Thread over here on the New WH Pit Policy. They used it down in Mexico as a test run. Worked pretty well. Obvious different situation down there but hopefully it will mix it up for folks.

    I feel like that November 10-11 weekend is as solid as it gets for a C'ville weekend by process of elimination and other factors. (I agree that they most likely won't schedule it in conflict with a football weekend, which wouldn't have been an issue in December when I was guessing the tour would be originally.)

    Has there been any legit rumors that they are doing a Fall tour? Or are we all just assuming since it’s an album year?

    prior to the summer dates being announced, someone said denver was being skipped during the summer for a fall tour. a few weeks later, the dates came out. denver was not on the list and the tour ends a couple weeks earlier than normal. thats lining up pretty well for a late oct-nov fall tour.
