Next tour leg...

Hey,
so... where will they stop next?
I really hope it's Europe (And Germany! ). Or will the tour the US first?
What do you think?

Looks like it's a case for keeping a close eye on the official site news or Twitter feeds, EF.

As for where, who knows? Place your bets!

Would like to see more UK dates in the Winter ... however, the boys may have other plans. America? Australia? Who knows? Certainly I wouldn't begrudge fans from outside the UK experiencing the band when they are on this kind of form.

Hm... good question. It looks like they're hitting up a lot of the festivals in Europe in June, so I'd place bets on Europe being the next leg. Unless there are some magical plans for a May US tour, it's looking unlikely that they'll expand beyond the Coachella gig as of right now.

Athena mentioned on the tour blog that there was summer festival dates then some North America dates

I think they're off to Australia at some point as well - think it was early autumn.....

Yeah, Coachella is happening this coming weekend, right? So I assume they're over here just for that, and maybe some well-earned R&R on the beaches out west, perhaps.

And as for the rest of North America, I'd love to know what they have planned...Mr Chrissie has never seen them yet and I have determined that he will be coming with me next time we have a chance to see them in the US. Hope that will work out, I want him to go with me just once!

Fingers are crossed here for a Boston date, or even a New York date, over a weekend would be best, mainly cos of your crazy North American vacation allowances...

The rumour is that they're coming to Australia in late July for the Splendour in the Grass festival. Hopefully this is confirmed with the official announcement in less than 18 hours time.

Selfishly hoping for a do-able European date in the Autumn. I would imagine it would be possible to do some North American dates in September, followed maybe by some European dates in October/November, hopefully leaving a slot free for a couple of UK December shows.

Oooh lovely - Elboys bedecked with tinsel!

Hee! They'd make a great present for Christmas, wouldn't they?

The times I miss home, Splendour, such a great festival!!
They will be perfect there, but I don't see them on the line-up and it's now so expensive!!!

Well, Splendour's been confirmed folks!

Are you going to Oz Jones?

Well, still hoping for a Munich gig very soon and not in the middle of Winter..
