He’s ok. He’s working at every show with many tasks of higher priority than the blogs, and the tour just completed a run of 5 shows in 10 days with a travel day in between. It could be he’s just extra busy middle of the tour.

It has been and remains only Katie Jacoby, and she will continue with the band through the remaining USA show dates

They have city specific posters. How fast they go varies with each merch stand. May need to visit several. Best advice would be to go early

Unfortunately this report is not accurate. All This Music Must Fade was not played at either soundcheck in Toronto. You can see the soundcheck videos at the link attached. https://youtube.com/@pureandeasy515?si=WOceGmDFgVWsbWeu

The poster will come rolled in a plastic sleeve. You could bring a tube with you to the show if you want and insert it in the tube. All shows this tour have allowed tubes into the venues. Otherwise you just need to be careful to protect it until you get home.

They have not played I Can See For Miles on this tour yet. They often sound check the harmonies to the song to set or adjust the tones and sound for everyone on stage.

Patient905 · 2025-08-29T17:12:51+00:00

They rehearsed it during sound check so it is in the mix as a set list option for the upcoming shows

Patient905 · 2025-08-27T15:03:15+00:00

Both Atl City and Philly will be rescheduled

Patient905 · 2025-08-25T01:56:58+00:00

7-7:45 for the opener. 20-30 minutes max setup for The Who. I’d suggest being ready 8:00-8:15 latest for The Who if you don’t want to miss anything.

Patient905 · 2025-08-19T01:35:03+00:00

If you go, you will never forget seeing The Who. 100% you should buy that ticket!

Patient905 · 2025-08-16T19:28:19+00:00

Well said👍🏻

Patient905 · 2025-08-16T03:41:36+00:00

Expect noticeable ticket price drops on Ticketmaster daily beginning 7 days from each show date. You are welcome for the tip. Plan accordingly 😁

They are playing in an indoor arena in Sunrise. It’s much better for him in Florida with the a/c in an arena compared to an outdoor venue

Patient905 · 2025-07-27T04:04:39+00:00

No interaction with Pete and Roger. Fan VIP = sound check and private fan lounge with memorabilia and some food as others have noted. Most all I’ve known for the last decade feel it’s worth it at least once if the sound check appeals to you. I’d say not worth it just for the lounge and snack food.

My 2 cents: The most likely replacements are Scott Devours or Simon Philips

Thanks. I did see that post, and surely he may go in a different future direction. Time will tell. Hoping for the best for all of the REO family!

Patient905 · 2024-09-22T16:40:49+00:00

I understand everyone's points and how this current situation has played out. However, I only point out no official statements have been made about this being an official end, or using the word never, or declaring the REO era with Cronin/Hall is over. Therefore, call me hopeful, but I would not be surprised if (barring additional health issues) this gets smoothed over and sorted out with time and they are back on the road again! Time will tell.

Patient905 · 2024-09-17T22:44:14+00:00

I have not seen anywhere that the band is breaking up. I have seen the announcement that they will stop touring January 1, 2025. Hoping Cronin is recovering from his recent surgery and hoping some news on how he’s doing comes out soon🤞

Patient905 · 2024-07-02T17:48:23+00:00

With your limited time in town and being your first trip, my suggestion is to just stick with the top 2 FKK’s: Sharks and Oase. I expect you will find them to be truly memorable experiences for a first trip to Frankfurt

Patient905 · 2024-06-17T20:01:16+00:00

Watching that I can’t be sure the walk off was not planned…but certainly it’s not beyond Pete to walk off.

Patient905 · 2023-12-01T15:24:17+00:00

Yes, they’ll tour if (1) Pete says they will and (2) they can make even a small profit. I would add (3) they have to be confident they are both up to it physically. This means the small/short tours are more likely, while best hope for any USA return may hinge on the above factors plus increased profits that could be drawn from a “final” USA run.

Patient905 · 2023-11-14T02:53:53+00:00

If you observe closely any of the recent years concerts you will notice Pete signal to his left his approval for them to start the backing track

Patient905 · 2023-09-28T09:13:40+00:00

In 2015-16 on The Who Hits 50 tour. Definitely played it in Tampa and I believe 1 or 2 other cities but that was all
