I just want to say I really appreciate when you say things like this. It's not really pleasant or complimentary but so much of it is true (particularly about the change in attitude when things are up for the band) and I haven't been here long enough to say anything like this without feeling like someone's going to say I'm not a "true fan." Question: What's DDM forum? I pretty much only come here or to LK forum to see what's going on so if there are other interesting forums for them I don't know about them. Zealous you must have the magic password to get on the LK forum...lucky you. Several attempts with no email verification and contacted directly...nada! Maybe my flowery style isn't for them. I see they want posts 20 words or less LOL! Hm, weird. I don't remember the email verification thing. Obviously it wasn't an issue since I don't remember it lol. Maybe it's a regional issue (although I know there are people from all over the place on that forum). Where are you? I'm in the states (Atlanta). Anyway, the 20 words or less thing is only for that one thread (and if you read the thread you can see that THAT didn't happen). aftertherain and coolbarn post on that forum and we all know how wordy they are so...

I don't post over there much (don't post here much either, but much more than there). Every once in a while a thread comes up where I feel like I have something to contribute. But mostly I just read silly conversations lol. They're fun.

Seems as though Coolbarn has made more of a home there then he has here lately! LOL

As you know, especially when it comes to silly conversations, I cannot sit down, can't shut my mouth, but maybe when they understand me they might feel good around me?...maybe not LOL! Sorry I wandered completely off topic, back to moaning about set lists

I don't get why we are not seeing a video for LNITC or a dance music hitting the music clubs..I do hope they still plan to release a song in the summer..I understand nothing the release will chart--but I am confident with a good dance remix they will get a favorable push in the dance clubs....oh well what more can I say.... Are they still going to hit Australia in 2017? What about Japan? Anymore European or South American dates? Maybe they are planning for a release within a few weeks now just before the second US leg of the tour starts? Not sure if it is of use to release it later than this Summer. We'll see. As for the touring in (as Warner likes to put it) the world outside the US... Haven't heard a single thing about it apart from Roger saying they will visit South America in 2017. I said it before it really is a bummer they do not reveal their touring plans. Should i see them in Italy in June or should i wait till they do some shows nearby (Holland / Belgium / Germany) ? I really do not get the point of being so secretive about it. Of course i understand they cannot go into detail or give exact dates yet, but that is not what i mean. Just something like "we are visiting Japan in September, Australia in October, back to the UK in December and Europe in Feb/March' etc. I mean they must have an idea about that...

I can't see Warner doing any more releases from PG, despite what the band says / desires. Pressure off was a great great bit of radio pop but never took off. The tour is where the money is at, and its another decent one 2.

I doubt they'd announce anything until it was ready to go, especially if it's pretty far in advance. No sense in saying, "We'll be (here) in this time period," only for it to come apart at the last minute.

Well clearly they do not! Lol!
But it would be nice to have some sort of idea. I think it is not to hard to give a little more info and like i said it doesn't have to be detailed. Besides that there were times it was normal to announce shows so far in advance. I remember a Canadian being very upset having booked tickets, hotel and transport to Vegas and months later suddenly a few shows in the West of Canada were announced... I totally understand her being so upset about it.

I'm not trying to stir up anything, but I honestly wonder if they are taking a wait and see approach due to Simon's voice. It faltered last fall in the US, and again on this last US tour. We all know what happened with the extended AYNIN tour. They have obviously scheduled several month long breaks since the tour started, which is great. Anyone notice anything over the course of the 11 or so shows played in the UK?
