I bet he wouldn't play Venus and Mars if he played on Mars :

I'm hoping for a new album above all, but I really wish there would be a North Carolina show added somewhere.

I'd doubt it with the current political climate

I love Bob's clues. They are the first thing I look for when I come on this site during these pre-touring months. Piques my interest! Not looking to get into a squabble - Just want to let the man know he is much appreciated.

I enjoy his clues and insights, too... and appreciate that he's willing to share as much as he does. Eventually we always find out when things are announced, but it's so much fun watching for clues and answers until then.

When can we buy this new added date?

When can we buy this new added date?
Hasn't been announced yet. Venue announced the date and is waiting for Paul's site to announce the details, it seems, according to the tweets from this afternoon. Maybe we will find out on Tuesday.

Bob you're very appreciated here as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for your reliable input and sharing what you can, when you can. Your information is second to none.

Hmm...wondering if this means Australia in the Nov/Dec range instead of more US or new Euro dates?
That would be amazing!
-
I hope for our Aussie friends that they get some shows
-
As much as I'd love the surprise to be Australia, I don't think that's what Bob is talking about.

I didn't see what was later moderated, but since the discussion suddenly shifted towards an earlier mentioned subject again, I think some of it was probably aimed at me, so just to clarify where we are standing: I never knocked any of Bob's hints, I have no reason to, often thanked him for it, and simply literally reacted to a question he asked. What he read in that and why he instantly went into attack and "pat on own back" mode instead of just honestly saying he didn't understand me is beyond me. Let's put it behind us as a misunderstanding, but if any user has an obnoxious tone I will keep continue fighting against that in the future.

The moderation had nothing to do with your posts. It was another poster.

Wow, SOME shows get announced and the thread goes quiet? Hmm
What do you expect? All the rumoured ones from when the thread took off again are now on sale, and the few prematurely announced ones (through Spotify/Songkick etc.) are awaited to be announcement, same with the ones in Brazil announced in the local press. Nothing more to discuss. The usual flat line on Europe and Australia.
hmm everything is on sale huh? Shows how much you know my friend.....answer...NOT MUCH. And while flat at the moment, I think you'll see at least a few Europe shows (just a guess reading into an earlier conversation with someone who does know....unlike you!)....I love people who know absolutely nothing post like they know what's up. It's quite entertaining. [..]
Dude, this is exactly my point, the only reason you posted that is so you can brag you know more and we don't. Again I ask you: what do you expect from us, talking about rumours we don't know about? You asked why the thread died down, and I explained it to you. I posted exactly that like we all don't know what's up, just read for once. You must have lot of shortcomings in real life if all you can do is brag about connections and think you should call people out who answer you in a direct way. Now, dear master, give us another zip code calculation hint which doesn't bring us any further, but makes you be able to say "see, I knew more" afterwards. It's quite entertaining.
Bob Gannon:
saying that there is nothing more to discuss...I'm not the only one who took it as rude, several people contacted me off list pissed off at his post. Reading it, it's not the way I took it either.....
If they're that pissed after misinterpreting an online forum post, why don't they react here? Nothing rude about answering you. Unlike your reaction after I apparently stepped on your toes. Not used to not everyone approaching you with kids gloves in trade of a hint, or something? There's one user who reacted here and completely understood what I was saying, it's very easy:

[..] nobodytoldme means that everything that has been announced at the moment is on sale. None of us are really privy to further shows (except maybe you). We were perplexed by your initial comment because it seems natural that the thread went quiet. None of us are aware of any further rumors (save Brazil shows in October), hence the silence on this thread.
This, this and this. Thanks. The only reason Bob posted that is so he could hint at there's more to come. Just post that then, instead of acting with false modesty being confused why things went quiet, so the only thing we can answer is "because us mortals don't know more, unlike you, Bob!"
I would agree, a majority of the reason to post these rumors or clues is to brag. I'm not saying that it's not sometimes valuable information, but really, who cares. We all see it eventually. It's like the the people who give you sob stories on Facebook only for you to say "oh, I hope you feel better" or "oh, it will be alright." It's the world we live in now. Everybody can be a bullshit artist, and worst off, you're not allowed to have an opinion against it. He definitely called you out for no good reason than having a different opinion.

Shows how much you don't know bigvin, but you are allowed your own opinion. I don't need to brag or impress anyone. For years I kept everything to myself. But I too as a younger fan was hostage to rumors or total lack of information until it was officially announced, so I do understand the frustrationn of Paul tours. The slow trickle announcements, the speculation and at times the total lack of any intel. Yes, everyone will eventually get the announcements but giving people an early heads up, generates excitement and something to look forward to. I wish there was someone doing that for me when I was a younger fan. But you are free to speculate and have your own opinions as to my motives. Just as I am free to speculate and have my own opinion as to your motives. I certainly have some thoughts there. There are plenty here who I've helped privately will attest that is not for bragging sakes but to help when I can. But you do have to realize that it's a fine line of what you should or can post on the artist's own board. You must remain respectfull of that while helping in a small way. I can easily go back to keeping all to myself, no sweat off my back. As far as my reaction to a comment....maybe I allowed the people who contacted me off list formulate my opinion prior to reading it. Maybe if I had found it on my own I would have taken it differently. At this point, that ship has sailed. At this point, I'll be taking a break from the pm forums. Good luck to all on future announcements and ticket sales.
