Not sure about the UK but it looks like Ireland and France will be open for business by the time Jimmy is scheduled. Guess we just keep monitoring the venues for their first non-postponed/cancelled events.

I would be surprised if he does any shows this year, in the US or Europe. Professional sports are talking about playing in empty stadiums and arenas when they come back, how would concert venues be different? I don't see any events happening with thousands of people in attendance. I hope I'm wrong, but ...

There's zero chance the Euro tour is happening this year. That became clear when Jimmy rescheduled Nashville for 9/14. There's no way with the time difference that a London show would occur basically a day and a half later.

I think you'll see some of the July/August shows rescheduled in that September window. Whether they actually happen or not is a different story.

I suspect you are right. London cancelled for sure and most likely dublin but jimmy loves paris and if there is any way? Will have to clutch at straws till an announcement.

Sadly I agree with Larry. It not just the concert but the tailgating. I'd be surprised if any shows happen in July or August. Great Woods has already bumped several shows to September and a few into 2021. If shows can happen in September Buffett at Great Woods could be moved to September because there is little chance he is doing any Europe shows.

Out on a limb, but I say if Biarritz beaches are open in septembre jimmy will be playing La Cigale. Will be epic if that happens.

Looks like you guys were right. La Cigale shows are listed at 'delayed'. No walks along the Seine, no beers and shrimp in Montemarte, and no cocktails at the Ritz. je suis deprime.
