The holdup is on Jimmy's end. They know the dates all of the venues are available, they are trying to chart a course through the venues.

Honestly, you people are killing me.:-? What's the big rush? Its doubtful he would play Alpine in March and he's booked through April. That means the concert won't be until May at the earliest. That's 3 months away! Go do something constructive for the next 90 days!!! :roll:

That's fine to. As long as I don't have to hear about: the lack of an NHL season, Jah-bashing by IsleReef, or when the Alpine concert is. :P :wink:

I think a big hold up is the Chicago City Council deciding on the Wrigley concerts. Until that happens, much of the schedule is likely up in the air. It's supposed to be on their agenda sometime soon; until you hear resolution around that I wouldn't expect much summer tour info to be announced.

and the longer it takes to get the summer tour in place, the longer it is before the inevitable whining and bitching about Ticketbastard, and scalpers, and prices and the like.

oh, and the "why isn't he playing here in my back yard?" whining is at a minimum with so little of the tour announced. :D
