If it goes ahead now I’ll probably have to sleep on a park bench 😂😂 This just reminded me of Glasgow and how they cannot catch a break when it comes to GD shows. Hope shows come back next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewe Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I don't think the tour can go ahead and also I think international travel would be banned until September Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*dry_ice* Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 On 4/17/2020 at 10:59 AM, herewegoagain said: This. They're not going to make a separate announcement for each show or a few at a time. I'm sure they're aware people are waiting for news but re-arranging a whole new world tour involving several bands isn't done in a day, surely. As mentioned before the Norway show is 100% happening next year so I trust they're working on everything behind the scenes. they could say that the tour is cancelled and then after some weeks announce the new dates like they did for the asian ones. I'm so anxious because I want the tickets to remain valids for next year and if the tour will be in june I will have to fight for the days off at work with my colleagues so the sooner I know it, the better will be 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDayItaly Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 New interview with Pete Wentz, talking about Hella Mega Tour - You should have been warming up for the Hella Mega Tour right about now, right? “Yup. Two weeks before quarantine began, we got together and rehearsed our set with our staging, our video and our lights because it’s a stadium, so you can’t just do it the week before. Now it’s like we’re circling, waiting to land. Nobody knows anything and it’s hard because we really want to do this tour. It was a hard thing to orchestrate because there are three bands, you have to figure out who’s doing what and everyone had to really want to do it. I know as much as you do about what’s going to happen with it.“ - Plus, you must just be looking forward to watching Weezer and Green Day every night? “We did a mini version of the show at Whiskey a Go Go and when Green Day play songs like ‘Basket Case’, those songs are so massive it’s like they’re baked into people’s DNA. Fall Out Boy aren’t there yet. Is that somewhere we could potentially get to? Yeah, I believe so. We grew up listening to Green Day. You have to think about what the 16-year-old version of you would think about you getting the chance to play with Weezer and Green Day. It’s super cool. Are you going to turn it down because you think you’re too big? Nah.” https://www.nme.com/music-interviews/pete-wentz-fall-out-boy-solo-album-cheap-cuts-phone-weezer-green-day-hella-mega-tour-2650450 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had never bought concert tickets so far in advance before. If they’re gonna keep my money for two years now they should at least pay me interest 😕 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought my ticket and thought "I'll have to finish two semesters at uni before this show" and it was so far it didn't feel real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 They should do a completely free outdoor tour and see how many people show up. Lots of people love those 30 dollar sips of beer, so it would still be profitable, Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plane was because I love travelling. But I can't anymore because of something called Covid-19 😥 BUT! What I can do tho is drinking. So Booze is relevant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Now been told my hotel in Glasgow has shut until mid July! I wonder if there are issues they are trying to settle, particularly in the states where ticket prices are so high, with so many people losing their jobs, should they refund the money to people because they need it but if they do that, will folk be able to afford the tickets next year.

Or should they even do the tour at all. I know the Asia dates are rescheduled but we’re due for a second wave and until there’s a vaccine I don’t see any arena or stadium events taking place. We know more now than we did in March when the first dates were postponed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Boy Named Booze Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I hope it's not gonna be a refund. I don't want to go through the stress of purchasing the tickets in the online queue again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Plus it's in question if it will be possible to travel from country to country without having to go in quarantine. It might be a problem to do a tour with different regulations in every country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I think a tour this size is highly unlikely until at least 2022 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The industry will want to bounce back as soon as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
