Tour Prediction and Speculation Thread [ARCHIVED] Tour • Page 1524

My sister is an administrator for a fire department (JUST got the vax last week because she had to), my partner's best friends are a massage therapist & a cosmetologist. All 3 are between 25-35 and definitely liberal leaning. I would go to shows with the cosmetologist ALL the time pre-COVID, she says she thinks she's gonna have to get the vax soon. So thankfully they're coming around, but they were all very openly against it.

 

Yes. I can finally see BMTH

 

Yes. Kind of. For a lot of touring festivals like that, SB will be used as the official “LA Area” show.

It’s kinda confusing because San Bernardino isn’t technically part of the LA Metro Area (it’s part of the Inland Empire with Riverside county) but since it’s only like, 20-30 miles away from LA itself it can still be an “LA Area” show I guess

It kinda sucks because if you’re not in LA itself, or in eastern part of LA County, Glen Helen is a really inconvenient drive

 

Makes sense. I know KROQ used to do some festivals at that ampitheater but does that signal even reach the area? I suppose it's sort of like living in NYC and having the "area date" by LI, NJ or, in some cases, even Connecticut as is the case with the Greta Van Fleet shows next month.

 

so are we assuming BMTH will be touring the US soon?

 

All my family and close friends are vaxxed, thank god, but I know quite a few people that are hesitant to get the vax and it really bums me out.

But at this point it’s like… you want Covid? Then okay do it, lol

 

All my friends that identify as left/progressive/liberal got the vax, but from like, summer of 2020 to spring 2021 stopped giving a shit about masks and social distancing. So many of them were having parties, traveling, going to restaurants… and were only wearing masks to like, go to the store. I felt like I was the only person I knew that was taking Covid seriously

 

I’ve been really lucky that absolutely every friend and family member I have is fully vaccinated other than my sisters who aren’t old enough yet

 

I feel incredibly lucky that everyone I know in my circle (family, friends, co-workers) is fully vaxed. But I also live in Massachusetts which ranks among the highest percentage of people vaccinated in the country and work for a company that requires proof of vaccination for people to return to working in the office. Has me feeling more comfortable than I probably would be going to shows...

But I'm not surprised by some of what others are saying. A number of my co-workers who grew up in other parts of the country have been sharing pretty similar anecdotes with me lately.

Truly depressing.

 

that would be great, no more Glen Helen pls

 

Hopefully! I need to hear king slayer live

 

Yeah I'm in the South Bay area and Glen Helen is about an hour drive from me. Much more convenient for me to have shows at Banc now.

 

just got my ticket to against the current at elsewhere zone one in brookyln. can't believe they are doing a 200 cap venue, they haven't done this small of a show in years

 

I live in northeastern PA and the anti-vax movement is the norm here. I hate to boil it all down to politics, but Trump got like 70% of the vote in my county last year. The culture here is odd. All the local pharmacies have an excess of vaccine doses they can't give away because nobody wants it.

 

During one of the first long drives I took when things started to get relaxed a bit last summer, I stopped for gas somewhere on Route 6 near Lake Wallenpaupack... I thought people were gonna try to fight me because I had a mask on

 

NY state announced today we’re approaching 75% vaccination rate and of all the positive Covid tests last week, only 0.15% of those were among vaccinated people!

 

I saw that NYC is making everyone who works in the city either get vaccinated or do weekly COVID tests, and refusal to comply will place people on unpaid admin leave. Crazy but good!

 

Considering NYC is the most densely populated city in the US, it’s great!

 

TN is a nightmare. One of the lowest rates in the US and nothing is being done about it

 

I am terrified to see what the numbers are going to look like after Bonnaroo. This weekend with Rolling Loud in Miami, I’m expecting the surge to be pretty severe.

 

I grew up in the area and yeah we get KROQ out there. KROQs signal is pretty strong actually. You can get almost to palm springs before it starts fading out.

Having LA dates at Glen Helen was always kinda silly. Its like when they'd have NASCAR in fontana and they'd say they're racing in Hollywood which is over an hour away lol.

 

Depending on the weather, you can get KROQ as far as Ventura too

 

Thoughts on incubus new material?
