FOTR posted that Paul will perform in Rome. So what do you think? Will it be before/after Madrid?
Just remember, just because there are open dates on the calendar doesn't mean he will fill many of him. Since 2009 very consistent 5-7 shows per month 8 or 9 would be a lot
At the very least at least 3 more shows in May...not US and not Europe
South America!!!
I saved 27 American Dollars for tickets and have my donkey ready for the trip to the venue.

That's true. He ain't no Bob Dylan, who has 16 concerts planned for April, ten of which will be in Tokyo. Imagine that.....
A lot of the limit on days is his half custody of his daughter. (Seems like he doesn't take her out on tour) . So he sets a stable atmosphere by not touring on those days.

Sounds reasonable to me.

I still think that a headline at ACL Fest in October is very likely, given that he has been hitting up festivals lately, and it's kind of a sister festival to Lollapalooza, since they are both put on by C3 Presents. Also, I think San Antonio, TX is the most likely Texas stop besides ACL, since he hasn't been there since '93 (besides that tiny show in 2014). I took a look at places he's played recently and stuff, and came up with a possible list of shows - Houston, TX San Antonio, TX Albuquerque, NM San Luis Obispo, CA Saratoga, NY Uncasville, CT (since Nancy's from there) Bristow, VA Charlotte, NC Orlando, FL Kansas City, MO Austin, TX (ACL Fest) Los Angeles, CA Denver, CO West Valley City, UT Thoughts? Any truth to any of these?

Any hope of Albuquerque has been nixed for this year. Houston and San Antonio are possible. Denver certainly. Kansas City, yeah. Salt Lake City? Why not? Orlando makes sense.

so true...after 2005 I was really concerned. 4 years with nothing in the US - only special shows and that tiny secret tour. So when he came back in 2009, I did my first out of city Macca show. If not I'd have been waiting 2 more years til he made it to Chicago again.
Wow! You came all the way from Chicago to Atlanta for an outdoor, general admission, 100 degrees in the shade (and it rained) concert? I live here and there was no way I could have handled that! You must be a bit younger than me. I have to have an air conditioned arena and an assigned seat!
The 2011 show at Wrigley Field was waaay hot & humid. I had to go into training to do that one...and that was one of my soundcheck shows. So all day outside...they even fed us outside. I kept asking...really? We're eating here? No air conditioning?

Yes NY hurts us but the 90's tours he always fit us in despite doing NY
Very true. As you said, age means less shows, smaller tours. At least he is playing every year. For now. Good for him!

Oh yes! One of my fav shows. Was 26 at the time but my mom was 59. I kept checking in with her about the hear but she just rolled her eyes commenting the young girls weren't tough enough lol (this was after 2 or 3 girls in late teens/early twenties had fainted). Did both Wrigley shows (second night soundcheck) and Lolla last year (with my mom now 65). Paul actually read our sign asking to get signed and a hug for mom.[size=16] "Which one's mom, eh?" Gotta say the worst was Milwaukee 2014. I prefer indoor arena (standing room would be even better) but I take what I can get.

I doubt that, with such a short window between the US and Germany. Maybe in November, as in 2010 and 2014.

Let's check the pattern April- 6 shows May- 4 shows confirmed and at least 3 or 4 coming soon June- 5 confirmed shows So we could see anywhere from 0 to 3 coming in June for Europe...if Rome is true, that would be 6 July and August back to the U.S. It looks like
