So? Think about when the South American dates have been announced, and when the Australian/NZ dates have been announced? It's only February, and it's late August/September when these possible dates are going to be taken place.
Yeah, they will be more expensive. But there is nothing you can do about that.
The delay might be that they have finalised the dates yet. OR it could be that all this is a load of bullshit, and there isn't going to be any dates.
But seriously dude, just be patient. Because it's only February. If anything doesn't get announced by about June, start getting uptight and worried.
You seem to know better what I am losing...
Anyway, my point was that there were no problems to announce last year's gigs about one year earlier. Over that, again, there were no problems to add new dates weeks after the first announcement. I believe it was the case for Rome? Maybe more. Perhaps the deals were not finalized, as you say.
But if they are really to play and finish in Dublin, as they said they wanted for quite some time now, I doubt that everything is not yet set. What I'm saying is that if they have the dates, they should make them public.
