Why would this tour get more kids to come out? Genuinely curious what you mean by that.

 

Mainly because the audience for this record is older and most of us have kids. Lots of parents with their little ones in the crowd last night.

 

The tours where nostalgia is a huge draw (band or album anniversaries).

 

Man, I just saw the recent IG reel with Chad. He's looking so frail and it seems like its a struggle for him to even talk. Really hoping for a speedy recovery.

 

I don’t have IG anymore but that’s awful to hear.

 

I know he just recently did a big round of chemo and went through pneumonia. The video of him from the show he played on this last tour was jarring, he's lost a ton of muscle mass from what he normally looks like (I compared with a few of his older photos on his IG). Seems whenever they find and treat one tumor, they're finding another.

 

Yeah, his body didn’t do well after he played the two shows on the first leg of the tour.

I was hoping he’d be able to do the UK tour but from my perspective it’s not looking too good. It’ll be interesting what the future of the band looks like after those dates. (I don’t think they’re breaking up but a long break from touring and releasing music could be likely)

Playing Rockville in May. Are they touring next year?
