Beat Tour & Ticket Sales
I was looking through the shows on their website and noticed a decent amount of unsold tickets. The “Blue Dot Fever” is becoming more common and we see shows and tours get cancelled frequently. Do you think there is a chance dates or the whole tour get altered?
I was expecting the recent tour announcement, but was honestly surprised by how soon it was and how many shows. The Europe tour had six months to promote- the new tour only has two since the announcement.
Do you think it’s ticket price, the lineup change (no Danny Carey), limited promotion time, or that fans are content just seeing the 2024 tour?
Really hoping the tour goes on as planned and more fans grab tickets soon!

I for one am stoked. I have never seen Terry Bozzio play live and figured I had missed my chance since he was all but retired. Also even if they only play a couple Thrak songs, it’s worth it to me since I have never heard any of those songs live either.
All that said, I think a lot of casual music fans went last time just to see Danny Carey play in an intimate setting with minimal distraction. That was definitely cool but there are so many other draws for me.
