Tour Prediction and Speculation Thread [ARCHIVED] Tour • Page 2258

Really good question. It's been interesting to see deathcore start to pass up less-accessible metalcore in popularity (so, excluding bands like Bad Omens). I hope a few bands can get to Lamb of God/Killswitch level

 

That’s an interesting combo, but sounds fun! Would love to see CC at some point

 

I can see this tour happening but it’s kind of an odd one. I feel like JEW is bigger than MO, but MO feels too big to be an opener for them.

If this is legit, I think it'll be billed as a co-headline, but JEW playing last every night

 

I think this double bill is perfect for like 6k theaters, but if it's a summer tour I'm totally expecting them to book all ampitheaters.

 

Yeah this is def a summer amphitheater tour. CC does these almost every summer

 

I haven't done the work to see if their schedules line up but the first band that came to mind is the Front Bottoms.

 

Hasn’t a MO/TFB tour happened before?

 

I think they both played Champagne Jam (or whatever its called) but I'm not sure they toured together. I could be wrong tho - it's been known to happen.

 

Yes, with O'Brother as well, in the fall of 2013.

 

And in fall 2018

 

Maybe a new tradition of a MO/TFB tour happening every 5 years will be established lol

 

It’s not TFB. Way better band haha

 

It's Manchester Orchestra + Jimmy Eat World, called "The Amplified Echos Tour". Tickets on sale next week.

JEW/MO is a great tour. Hope they get Pool Kids or Future Teens or another cool young band to open.

Counting Crows / Dashboard is also really neat. That's a great way to spend a summer night at an amphitheater.

 

Counting Crows/Dashboard Confessional is interesting because Twin Forks opened up for Counting Crows in 2015 on their Canadian Tour.

 

Best lineup yet

 

Would be a great matinee show.

 

I've seen August Burns Red 7 times now in Portland since 2015. 6/7 were headlining shows, 5 of which were at the same venue (started in 2016, last show attended was this year). At a certain point these bands seem like they're stuck in this venue limbo of too big for the clubs but too small to go to the next size up. So it's a choice of does every tour sell out but you remain in the same venue, or do you have half empty venues?

 

Two great combos!

 

gotta get those support tours

 

lol

 

Any idea of when the dates run from? I’m out of town a lot of June
