Hmmmm. Is Lindsey scheduling a tour??

[Lisa1769]

I know I've been out of the loop for awhile. But I just read this on a KC Newspaper blog:

Mr. Slow Turning is coming to the venue behind Grinders on July 15, a Tuesday. Tickets are on sale now for $28, $38 (bleachers) and $76.50 (VIP).

Also coming to Crossroads KC: Live with Collective Soul on July 26, a Saturday. Tickets are $30, $40 and $76.50.

We've also heard: Lindsey Buckingham is on the way soon; so is Ray LaMontagne.

For Real????

[michelej1]

If he is, that would mean that he's going to drop the solo album after all and I don't think anything that good could possibly happen to us.

Exciting to think about, especially mixed in with the FM news of late.

[bucklind17]

I am a fan of Lindsey's on Facebook through iLike and got a notification that Lindsey posted a tour date "near me". It is in Glenside, Pennsylvania (aka not really near me) on October 18. That is the only date on iLike so far though.

ETA - This date is also listed on Ticketmaster, but tickets are not yet on sale.

EXCITING! Hopefully more are to follow!

[WildHeart69]

I just posted about this on Mick's board and came over to post about it here too!

I live in Philly and the Keswick is really close so I already have it in my phone calendar!

He did say in an interview a few months ago that the album would be out this fall, so I guess he is keeping his word!

[Madness Fades]

Well its not listed in the Keswick Theatre Events List. :shrug:

But theres something brewing.

[WelshWitchPMD]

I have the Waddy Wachtel Band as a friend on MySpace. I received an update of what the band members have been doing while WW is on tour with Stevie. This is what was posted about Brett Tuggle:

Brett Tuggle is finishing up recording a new cd with Lindsey Buckingham which will be released later this year, and Brett will be touring with Lindsey in conjunction with the release of the cd.

So, it looks like a new CD and tour (please play Rhode Island)

Funny, didn't Stevie just say the other day that the Mac would be recording in October?:confused:

[LngPrmsdRd]

Well, Providence IS an actual city, so.. ;)

Ohhhh no...I don't think my wallet can handle this!!! LOL! Exciting though...REALLY hope it happens!!!

[Farrah]

Ticketmaster has given and taken away concert listings before, so I'm not entirely hopeful ... does anybody by any chance remember how long before the UTS CD and tour we found out about said CD and tour? As far as I remember, we didn't have too much advance warning.

(And right now I can only afford a show that costs exactly two dollars Canadian, anyway. ;))

And oh man, I remember that...August 3...I was flat broke, had just got back from seeing Glenn Frey rather unexpectedly in Atlantic City, was in concert-related debt already, was just barely beginning to get hours at work again thanks to my knee having decided to give out on me earlier in the year... And bam! Lindsey tour. LOL...I can't remember if I screamed out of excitement or monetery fear/frustration! ;)

June 15,2008

As expected, Lindsey Buckingham fall tour dates are rolling out to back up his yet to be announced, but anticipated early fall release of his next solo album. The reported rock album comes just two years after his previous release in the fall of 2006 "Under The Skin ".

First date announced by Ticketmaster:

Lindsey Buckingham
Keswick Theatre, Glenside, PA (Philadelphia)
Sat, Oct 18, 2008 08:00 PM
Tickets: US $32.50 - US $39.50

Yeah, I doubt he will play here but there is a place in Massachusetts that he could very well play. PM me.;)

[michelej1]

Not to complain even before we know if there's going to be a tour -- but you've got to start some time! I wish these dates wouldn't trickle out willy nilly out of sequence. I'd like to see the first show and I need to know where that's going to be. I don't want to start planning for PA and then find he's going to open the show in Los Angeles, right in my backyard, especially since, in this economy, there is NO such thing as a cheap airline ticket.

They can announce the other dates as they go, but I'd like the FIRST show to roll out soon and to be somewhat concrete.

Nah, it was well known before then. June, at least.

[LukeA]

This is the first clear sign that a new (solo) album is imminent. Obviously, Lindsey has no reason to go out on the road to play shows and lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in the process (like he did last time) purely due to vanity.

[David]

Funny, didn't Stevie just say the other day that the Mac would be recording in October?:confused:They're going to switch things around this time -- to see how it goes. Stevie is going to bunker down in the studio & start the Fleetwood Mac album while Lindsey continues touring & sending his demos to her from the road.

I look forward to seeing how this works. Stevie did a good job with Bombay Sapphires and I'd love to hear her production of Twist of Fate.

Better get the credit card paid off so I can fill it back up with Lindsey concert tickets. :lol:

Didn't a fan ask him about the song recently and he couldn't even remember what that was? That kills me. But the talk about the new album has playing by Mick and John and I know they played on TOF. So hopefully!

Good think Lindsey tickets are somewhat cheap.

The story I heard was that he was asked about the song and was playing it up that he didn't know what they were talking about probably since it wasn't ever officially released. Apparently, it was obvious he was just messing around with the fan though.

Let's hope its true and it's on the album!!

[Livia]

Didn't LB say that he was willing to let another producer take the helm at the next FM album? And we all went nuts suggesting Jack White, Rick Rubin, et al.

I'm ready for another LB solo tour. :blob2:

An LB solo tour always sounds good.:nod:

Cocktails at the Hole in the Wall again? ;)

If he passes thru Austin again, I'd rather see him at the Paramount or the new Long Center. I believe the Hogg Aud. is undergoing renovations now anyway.

If he passes through Austin, we have to have another pre-show and post-show celebration at the Hole in the Wall. :thumbsup: That was too much fun!!

[Maccafan5000]

I go away for a couple days and BAM! My dream may just be coming true. I was just complaining to some family members at our cookout yesterday that a possible Fleetwood Mac tour is in the mix, which does make me happy, but how disappointed I was that there would be no LB cd/tour.

How in the world am I going to afford this and not flunk out of law school.....

As long as it actually happens, I'm not that concerned.

Dont worry about Law school and Max out your credit card. Only for lindsey there would be no Law and Order.

[Maccafan5000]

Only for lindsey there would be no Law and Order.

This might have to be my new motto :)

Well, along with the one given to me by my professor the other day; "law school is just another step towards rockstar."

...I can't wait for this new album. I too am hoping for Twist of Fate, but I would also LOVE for "Gift of Screws" to be included as well. I wonder if LB will throw the remaining songs from the original GOS album onto this "new" release. I would definitely not be opposed.

[TrueFaith77]

Well... should TOF be included on the new Lindsey solo cd or the new FM cd? THAT is the question. Were Mick and/or John on the TOF demo at all? I personally think it should be on the FM album cuz it's the greatest song since Go Your Own Way. I was listening to it today and was struck to finally realize its nod to Talking Heads' (staggering) "Life During Wartime." *tears* Love you Lindsey! :xoxo:

My fave part of Linds going on a tour with a potential new CD: he'll actually play tracks from the new album during the live show, giving those songs new life and a different vision.

I don't think this is the same one Stevie was in is it? Stevie played at the larger one (where she was the opening act in 2001 with TISL). This is the one listed for Lindsey and it looks really nice:

Gift of Screws was the unreleased album, the last tour was Under the Skin.

[michelej1]

And it is called the Gift of Screws tour? Wow! That's exciting in and of itself, especially since Lindsey has claimed he's not even sure if that was the title of the album he never released. What a nut! A nut I'll get to see LIVE again very shortly.

Life is good.:blob1:

Oh great work Lindsey theres 2 Gigs in Ireland, thanks very much cant wait to go. NOT !!!!!

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

No Texas. Oh well, we had him for three shows last time and the DVD taping.

TULSA HERE I COME!! WOOHOO!!! :blob2::blob2::blob2::blob2::blob2:


Edit - My face upon seeing that is was the "Gift of Screws Tour" http://www.freebmw.net/share/Smilies/NormalSize/SHOCKED2.gif followed by http://www.freebmw.net/share/Smilies/NormalSize/b_woot.gif

[WildHeart69]

House of Blues in Chicago, not Hard Rock.

my bad! but you got the gist! :blob2:

[Livia]

I need to do some venue research. I see lots of cities Southwest Airlines flies to...I've got a free roundtrip to use. :blob1:

[Chrislit18]

Oh god I'm so exicited.

I'm going to Northampton most likely cause we saw him there last year, and my mom loves it. And I'm also making my mom drive me down to PA for the saturday the 18th show. I plan on seeing him two or three times.
:)

This kicks a$$!!!!

[ajmccarrell]

Anyone want to go with me to the Seattle Show at the Moore Theater? My wife hates Lindsey both personally and professionally.

I'm looking at probably Tulsa, Kansas City, St Louis, Cleveland, Chicago, Milwaukee, and Indianapolis.

[estranged4life]

is at the beautiful <a href="http://bradytheater.net/">Brady Theater</a> (aka 'The Old Lady on Brady') - but I fear the parking issue with the new arena, <a href="http://bokcenter.com/">The BOK Center</a> in downtown will be beyond Fubar'd....So my advice is to arrive early

(Thanks for the info. btw)

[Peestie]

I'm going to head across and see the ones in LA and the surrounding area! It'll financially cripple me but I don't care!

[wondergirl9847]

David, that was my plan sans Milwaukee and Indianapolis. Tulsa through Chicago are gos for me...plus MAYBE Boston/New York, but those are a HUGE maybe.

Yes, Southwest Airlines is my friend. LOL

Tulsa will be a hot spot for Liddy fans! Nice! :thumbsup: Let's find a cool place to meet up.

[estranged4life]

That Tulsa show does seem very doable for me since that is a short 2 hour drive for this former Tulsa resident...So y'all may have some Ledgie company.

[Livia]

I'd love to join y'all in Tulsa, but that's the same weekend as the Austin City Limits Festival. D'OH!

[estranged4life]

Is it GA or assigned seating??

(Thanks for the info. btw)

is assigned seating, but it a beautiful venue to see an artist who is more atuned to using acoustics than blasting loud amps, a state-of-the-art sound system will make this show a great one.



I just noticed this show is occurring during the weeks of the Tulsa State Fair and here is a short list of other shows occurring that same Friday night in T-town:

Fri 09/26/08 Kenny Loggins - Osage Million Dollar Elm Casino
Fri 09/26/08 Atlanta Rhythm Section - Tulsa State Fair
Fri 09/26/08 The Georgia Satellites - Tulsa State Fair
Fri 09/26/08 The Marshall Tucker Band - Tulsa State Fair

Plenty to do in Tulsa that weekend it appears, either the fair or head to a casino.

I'm very happy to hear that. It may be a tight squeeze for me getting there to the show (hoping it starts at 8pm) from Dallas and it will be nice to know that I won't have to miss a great seat dealing with GA.

Must have Count Down, You Do or You Don't, Wrong. I would also like Doing What I Can, because it is so much better in concert than on record. However, I will not be greedy.

[Maccafan5000]

YYAYYY LINDSEY'S COMING TO CLEVELAND!! I love shows at the HOB here, I go to them as often as possible.

I didn't think today would be that great, since I'm coughing up a lung (due to the terrential downpour at Stevie's concert last night), but holy hell this news made my week! (month...perhaps year).

You guys think he'll actually get a new album released before the tour?

I am hoping for "This is the Time" or, dare I say it, "Tango in the Night"! That is my dream song to hear live.

[ajmccarrell]

How is that possible???!! :shocked:

LOL! It's possible because she's not that impressed by him. She also thinks he's not very nice to people that got him where he is, which is true. We met him briefly once and she thought he was full of himself.

She also thinks I'm a better guitarist than he is, which is technically true, but he's much more inventive and innovative than I could hope to be. She says she just sat there during the concert and thought that I did a lot of the same songs better. She said she was just bored by it.

I think he will. Definitely should take advantage of the touring and promote it. :thumbsup:

All I can say is WOW...bored by Lindsey, amazing...but to each his or her own I guess.

[BTFLCHLD]

Really? I don't see that happening at all...

I believe we are looking at 27 dates, then a CD release and then a full-on tour. I find curious this is the GOS tour considering, technically, there is no GOS. I believe we will see a name change on the CD promo tour.

Ahhhh....Lindsey giving us the 'gift of screws' to warm us all up...I love it!

um...of course, I could be wrong. hehe ;)

[michelej1]

I can't think of any other reason for the tour. Michele

[BTFLCHLD]

I can't think of any other reason for the tour. Michele In general, do you think someone would not play shows just for the sake of playing...or is it all just to promote a purchase? I am curious about this.

I must be on fairy dust...mosttimes I want to believe an artist gets pleasure just from performing to their audience not necessarily as on opportunity to sell their wares. Perhaps I am thinking of the grateful dead.

[AliceLover]

I can't think of any other reason for the tour. Michele

It got me nervous when I saw that the dates were posted before any actual news about an album. Even if he doesn't put an album out before the tour, im sure he will do songs from it live. Hes not afraid like someone else we all know...

[TrueFaith77]

It could actually be just to promote the Soundstage dvd/cd?

[ajmccarrell]

I did hear from Gary Hodges that the album is coming out this summer, so this tour isn't just about the DVD.

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

I guess I'm thinking that this tour is not going to be as extensive as the last one. So, I don't see a better way to promote the album. I suppose I just hope it comes out soon...need a Lindsey fix. http://www.turksestudent.be/forum/style_emoticons/default/Jumpy.gif

Bulletin from the Waddy Wachtel Band on myspace:

Note from Nina:

Here are a few updates as to the whereabouts and goings-on of the members of the Waddy Wachtel Band:

Phil Jones will be performing this Monday 6/30 at the Joint with friends Bernard Fowler, Jason Sinay, Bob Glaub and Mike Canipe.

Waddy Wachtel is on the last legs of his tour with Stevie Nicks and will be back in town next week - and back at the Joint with all of us very soon. To see some cool new pics of Waddy at these gigs, check the "Tagged Photos" in our "Pic" section.

Rick Rosas is still in Europe touring with Neil Young and should be back some time in late August.

Brett Tuggle has finished his recording sessions with Lindsey Buckingham, but will begin rehearsals with Lindsey in August for their upcoming tour in September and October. Brett will also be touring early next year with Fleetwood Mac.


Jamie Savko's birthday is tomorrow 6/27.

Happy Birthday, Jamie!!!!

I've been adding a new "Brett Tuggle" section to the Waddy Wachtel Info web page.

You can check it out at:
Waddy Wachtel Info / Brett Tuggle
It includes some great photos, videos and audio.

I'm also really looking forward to having Waddy and all the guys in WWB back at the Joint. We're so patient, aren't we? Well, when there's that much talent packed onto the small Joint stage on a Monday night, what else can we do but wait for them to come back and Rock Our Socks Off! Yeah! Sooooon, babies. I'll be at this computer giving you the news as soon as I hear it.

July WILL be rockin'!!!!

Love from WWB and me to all you rockers.......
See ya soon!
-Nina

P.S. I also posted this as a blog on the WWB MS page.

[LukeA]

The album WILL be released before the tour. If not, get ready for a LOT of near-empty houses on this tour.

In many markets (including my own), this will be his THIRD concert in less than two years. I never thought I'd say this before, but Lindsey definitely is running the risk of over saturation with his frequent touring.

cd before or after...either way, it's a comin! :]

thanks for the info Livia

[Peestie]

I think this will be the only tour he does because if FM are touring "early next year" then I think he'll want time off after his Sept/Oct tour and then they will have to start getting ready for the Mac tour so it's unlikely that there will be much, or any, more touring after this one.

Besides, he's called it the "Gift of Screws" tour so I'm willing to put big bucks that GOS will be the album title and I think it's very rare for an artist to name a tour after a new album but not have the album released for the tour (or at the very least at some point during the tour).

That's my thinking. He needs to cleanse himself of this album once and for all. At the end of last June I was told 6 songs were in the can. It has to be some of the GOS tracks. Hasn't he mentioned Mick and John on a couple?? I'm very excited. Twist of Fate and Shuffle Riff...I'm hoping.

um...of course, I could be wrong. hehe ;)

I dont think so... Didn't UTS come out around only a month or so after they announced it!? I think so...

I don't really like the idea of calling this album "Gift of Screws" because I feel like Gift of Screws, as we know it, has already been made and then just plain b*stardized... But I suppose we "aren't supposed to know" the whole story... I dunno... I just wish he would have picked a different name.

As for a FM album, I think we are looking at a 10ish song blitz of an album... it seems like the whole process is being rushed because Mick wants to get on the road and make the real $$... just mho.

[Chrislit18]

Just some info I found interesting.
Since my mom told me I can go to two shows, Northampton, and probably CT, I wanted to look up the Ridgefield Playhouse, where the show is located. Seeing as I'm not from around there.

Of all the venues listed in my area, it is the only one that has Lindsey on it yet, and the ticket price is outrageous!!

85 dollars!! :shocked:
I thought that his tickets would be cheaper!!!

So probably I'll be going to the Glenside PA show on the Saturday instead. If anyone has any info on how much tickets are it would be greatly appreciated. The only way I can get my mom to go is if I pay for the tickets, and I really don't want them to make me poor, seeing as in December I'm going car shopping too....

This year is gonna cause me to go bankrupt. seriously. Between Stevie in CT, two Lindsey dates and a car...ugh. lol!

but seriously, any info on the average price of tickets at the Keswick theatre or even the Berklee Center in Boston would be appreciated.

Thanks :)

On a side note however-
I'm sure he'll be releasing the album in August/September either right before or during the tour. He wouldn't dare not release the album at all if he's naming the tour the GOS tour. I don't think he's that dumb...:lol:

And if FM is touring next spring [09], He probably won't have another leg to his tour, and the CD will be out before then. Or if he thinks he has good marketing skills, he may even wait until DURING the FM tour, and promote it under the name 'the Guitarest from Fleetwood Mac', because that does spark more public interest rather than just 'Lindsey Buckingham'.

So I guess everyone will have to wait to see what happens, and what he has planned.

But I am certain that he will change up the setlist a bit!!

[Nicks Fan]

I am stoked that he is playing Toronto!!!!. I just hope that the setlist changes.

I think the Glenside show was listed under 50 dollars for the most expensive seats....I might be wrong but I am pretty sure the high price ones were in the mid 40 dollar range and the cheaper ones were in the 30's

I'm considering this one - but if I fly up the day before the show, I'd be flying on 9/11, which kinda freaks me out. Plus, I'd rather not use an extra vacation day just to travel. Soooo, I may fly to Tahoe on the 12th and return that Sunday. Or go to San Francisco instead.

[bucklind17]

Pretty sure Nokia in NYC will be General Admission. Don't see how it could be otherwise, unless there is some other venue Nokia owns in NYC that isn't the one in Times Square, so at least don't have to worry about when tickets will go on sale for that.

Has anyone ever been to anything at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City? I'm VERY familiar with AC and assorted venues there, but seeing he's playing the Taj is kind of random. I'm pretty sure there's a theatre-esque venue in there, but I have no idea what the layout/setup is. Any info would be helpful!

What do you mean? Will tix not be available in advance?

[bucklind17]

What do you mean? Will tix not be available in advance?

They would be. Nokia does not have built in seats though, at least not the first two levels. There is stadium seating in the very back of the room, but it's mostly open floor. I suppose they can put down temporary seats when they choose to but every concert I have attended there has been general admission without assigned seating, so that it doesn't matter when you buy your ticket as there is no "front row" seats. But I could be wrong, it's very possible they'll put down seats for this show. Guess we'll have to see.

Toronto October 8.

[macmar71]

The Ridgefield CT tickets are $85.00 and unfortunately I cannot afford to do it this time around (I went last spring and it was a great venue) and NYC...my days of standing up at concerts are over (bad feet). I would want to have an assigned seat and it sounds like that isn't so unless your millions of miles away from the stage. I guess I will wait for the next Mac outing. :shrug:

[bucklind17]

The more I think about it, the more I doubt the Nokia show is going to be general admission. If I remember correctly, there was recently a benefit there where they put down seats, so I'm sure they have that option. Lindsey isn't really a standing concert.

[WildHeart69]

The TLA here in Philly is almost always a GA venue but they had seats when LB played here last fall... I didnt like that concept (but I managed to get 1st row seats anyway, so it didnt matter that much)

[Regina]

Well, this tour might be very different (in tone) than the UtS tour. But, I still prefer seats and do hope they put them in for Nokia.
I don't like the uncertainty or the scrambling for the stage bit.
Plus, yeah--I can definitely stand for a whole concert but it's nice to have a moment's break here and there.

Sun, Sept 14 - Los Angeles, CA - Royce Hall

These are the three shows that me and my friend are thinking of going to see and then we're going to fly across to Buffalo, NY, to see Gordon Lightfoot on September 21 before flying back to Ireland.
Just checking first - does anyone know if any of those three shows are Over 21 (we're only 20...)? I've had a brief look at the websites and none of them seemed to be but I don't want to risk it and we're trying to get our travel plans done in advance by working around what concerts we're going to.

Thanks, that makes it all easier to organise. :D I'm sure I can go two weeks in the US without drinking - but only because you probably won't have Black Bush Irish whiskey! :p

Hmmmm.... I might see if I can afford to go to the San Diego show as well and travel down the whole West Coast for some touristy things. Anyone have any recommendations of things to see? I'm still open to all ideas.

Peestie, Have you checked fights and accom yet. What sort of money is it costing. Me and my wife are thinking of going.

My provisional plan is to fly into San Francisco and that's 412-ish Euro but I think it may be slightly cheaper to fly to LA. Possibly about 173 Euro with Aerlingus to fly to LAX direct. I think the prices are similar for the return trip but I'll be flying to Buffalo NY for another concert and then flying back to Dublin from there so I haven't looked up the return flights from LAX in much detail. There's a California Shuttle Bus that seems to be around $40 to get between cities as well.

I haven't looked at much accommodation yet but I'll be trying to find places that are as cheap as possible, like youth hostels or anything like that. I'm dropping into the Student Travel Agency in Belfast on Thursday to see if they can offer any advice.

To be honest, if my friend is willing, I might see if I can fork out the $400-450 to get front row seating at Humphrey's with the Premium package but it will depend how the rest of the trip goes. It's looking unlikely I'll have much left for that! :distress:

Well that would certainly be a lot handier (and cheaper). Is it just a case of ordering the tickets when they first come on sale?

I'll need to look up places to stay in San Diego anyway so Humphrey's might be as handy as anything else. Lots of research to do. :blob2:

talk to you soon.

[sywlindseyfan]

hey Peestie we should have a Mini ledge meet up, I am also going to the Anaheim Show for sure, and I am working on who to go with for the Royce Hall show, ahah but we should definitely meet up everyone here who is going, so just PM me!!

[Peestie]

That sounds like it could be fun! My friend and I will most likely be going to the Royce Hall show so we'll maybe be able to meet up with you there or and Anaheim.

[AliP]

So does anyone know which tickets have actually gone on sale yet?

I was just checking Lake Tahoe and it seems they only have nosebleeds left?? I didn't realize any of the tickets had gone on sale yet.

Hmmm, I was just able to pull up row 2, center stage (for a single ticket).

[ajmccarrell]

Why in God's name are the tickets $260 and up???!!! Is there something I'm missing here? Do we get to have sex with him or something as part of the deal?

[wondergirl9847]

ticketsnow.com has tickets to some of the shows...between 200-300 bucks, and they aren't even front row. :rolleyes:

I hate this type of thing and it gets worse every year. :mad:

[Maccafan5000]

Wow, I am definitely out of the loop here. I'm looking on ticketmaster daily for sales, perhaps I should've been looking elsewhere.

What's with the outrageous prices? Do you guys think better tix will be available on ticketmaster for a lower price?

[TrueFaith77]

i just saw one for 418 bucks. errr?

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

Ummm, those HAVE to be scalper prices. :confused: That's insane.

[Chrislit18]

^^^ I agree those prices are outragous!
For Lindsey Buckingham...seriously!?
500 bucks!?

Anyways, I'm sure #1LiddyBuckFan [Your name is Lindsey right? sorry I have a hard time remembering...] is right that they are scalper prices. Have any venues even put tickets up for sale yet?
I know Northampton isn't for sale or on the website yet....or Boston...

[Livia]

Those are definitely scalper prices. They know they will acquire those tickets to sell eventually (yes, it's a giant racket, it always is when sticketbastard's involved).

I believe the only venue currently selling tix is Harrah's in Lake Tahoe.

LB's not even on pollstar yet, and they're usually pretty quick about posting tour dates.

I beleive that one or two venue's go on sale this friday...and Boston isn't until September 5, according to Ticketmaster....

Thanks for the info Livia!

I just hope they go onsale during the summer for me, since I'm home all day and I can just go buy my tickets ASAP...

[michelej1]

If there is going to be a new album, I wonder when we will hear about it. Isn't it strange to get concert days first, before there is official word of an album?

I'm one of those who thinks he wouldn't tour again without an album. Yet, I can't explain the silence.

Michele

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

I agree. it is weird. Though last time we got hardly any notice of the tour so I'm glad people have more time to plan...especially those who are traveling. I would think there would be info on a new album along with the tour though. I hope it's soon.

Maybe the tracklist, title, etc have not been decided yet. ?

[michelej1]

Maybe. And I guess it's best not to say when they'll be an album if that date only gets pushed back, because we all know how many times our hopes for the first GOS release were dashed.

I don't mean to be redundant but have people found out by which record company this new solo cd will be released?

[LukeA]

I said it before, and I'll say it again. If Lindsey doesn't get the album (or even a single) out before these shows take place, not only will these shows be sparsely attended, but some will be canceled due to poor sales.

Of course, that's a BIG if, as I highly doubt the promoters involved in this tour would have submitted offers if they knew it would be his third time in the market in less than two years WITHOUT the benefit of a new "angle" (new album/single) to promote. Promoters already lost a bundle on the needless (again, speaking from a business perspective, not as a fan) concerts in repeat markets last time around, and they wouldn't be as stupid this time around without some assurances.

[BTFLCHLD]

I said it before, and I'll say it again. If Lindsey doesn't get the album (or even a single) out before these shows take place, not only will these shows be sparsely attended, but some will be canceled due to poor sales. I've thought it before, and I'll think it again...I believe you are wrong.

[Regina]

The thing is...a new release is not really going to draw in fans who would not be inclined to seeing Lindsey, anyway. The only way it would do that (IMO) is if he'd have a mega-hit, mega-fast, and that's unlikely to happen considering the fact that radio stations rarely even play solo Lindsey.

He has a very specific, very loyal (I think) fanbase. And, at this point, even if it's the third time he's been out there in a relatively short amount of time-these are the fans that remember the 10+ years of waiting for him to hit the road as a solo performer and aren't about to let him play to an empty house if they have anything to say about it.

So, in conclusion, I don't care what he is or isn't hawking, I'm out there to hear him sing:laugh:

IMHO, Linds could go out there and sing the ads in the phone book and it would be fantastic...because he is playing and singing...

My point is that you are casting such a black curtain over this situation before it even gets started. Linds doesn't need to release anything to draw his core base of people or "boutique" fans. I don't think show cancellation is even in the cards because this man mesmerizes; giving new material or some vague classical piece from 1625...he will be sublime. $.02.

This is my feeling exactly. I recall talking to people at his shows last time who didn't even know he was promoting an album until he mentioned it in the show or they saw it on the souvenir tables. They came to see him play.

[Nico]

Well, I'll be seeing him in concert whether or not there is a new album is all I'll say.

[michelej1]

Oh, I'll see the devil in concert at least 10 times. But if there's not an album, I will complain bitterly the entire time. Also, if he doesn't sing what I want at the concerts I will complain. Also, I will probably complain about his clothes and hair too. And I will definitely complain about comments he makes in interviews.

:lol:

We should go ahead and start some new threads as I'm sure once again these conversations will be had. "Why does he wear the same thing?" and "Survival Moves and Cycles".

Do these work for now? :p
