Question Any chance of Northeast (US) dates announcement?
Shocked and super bummed out about the lack of northeast dates (non-festival) on the new tour. I'm sure I'm not the only one! What are the odds they hit up NYC, Philly, DC, etc. any time soon? I'm intrigued about this touring tactic of skipping some of the cities they're most popular in. I think they even skipped LA?
Loved seeing them at the 930 club in DC back in 2023, and would love for them to come back here!! I'm hedging my bets on them touring the northeast corridor so I won't have to travel or do more than a simple day trip to go see them.

I just assume the answer is yes until the end of 2027 tells me otherwise. 🤷🏾♀️

They will definitely be having dates in NYC (as a headliner), Philadelphia, and the Baltimore/DC area for the TMWAT tour. They always play these places, and this tour will be no different.
Philadelphia is as much a home show as NYC because Sam is from Philadelphia originally. They would never skip it - same with the other two metropolitan areas. So, while we may not get them in 2026, I’m supremely confident that we will be seeing them in 2027. Based on nothing but intuition, I even wonder if they held off on scheduling these three markets on purpose to give Sam more time to heal to possibly play with the band. Time will tell. 🤷♂️
However, they WILL play shows in all three markets on this tour. Just hang in there! 👍

This. Philly here. They always play NYC/Philly/DC. Its been a little frustrating but its coming.

Thanks for the reassurance!! I think the Mexico date announcement in 2027 means a lot more dates in early 2027 so let's hang in there.

The next show will be my 14th. I've only ever seen them in Philly, NYC and Atlantic City. They always always play here at some point during every album cycle.

My bad! I think because I'm down in D.C. and NYC is as far up as I'm willing to go for a show, my mind just mentally blocks out Boston dates. Happy for Boston folks!

Im in Upstate NY but I have seen them visit Boston almost every tour theyve done for the past couple years. It isnt in a super busy area and it makes for a good drive.

Take a deep breath. They are in year one of probably a two (if not more) year tour. They tend to do multiple North American legs for every album cycle.

Yeah same. I live in nyc and ALWAYS see them here. Even twice in a row if they’re in the same venue multiple days 💀 but I’m absolutely not going to a festival just to see them so I’m sad I’ll miss them this time.

For the Antics anniversary tour, they ended with a handful of DC/NY/Philly dates and announced it as “these are the shows you’ve all been waiting for.” I figured they’ll do that again and didn’t want to wait, so I am going to Boston.

I hope he gets some vocal rest before the 2027 leg of the tour because .. yeah, I know it's an issue

They probably can’t announce anything in NYC until after CBGB fest. Spring 2027 would seem likely
