2019 Summer Tour - Live and Bush Options

[ADAD]

For what it’s worth, I’m sitting one row in front of someone with a pin and I got my tickets for free from the casino (and I gamble but not THAT much).

People are voicing disappointment online with the high priced VIP package from Live.

The Live VIP package is horrible. What a waste of money. 3 pins and a small booklet with older photos in a cheap drawstring bag. ☹️

Just saw this on FB.

Amazing.

No meet and greets, no t-shirts, no early entrance. 200 bucks for a plastic bag with 3 pins and a tour programme.

Oh, and the gig too. But who cares.

someone mentioned something about fraud

On Instragram, somebody asked Chad Gracey how many tracks Live would be playing on their European tour. Chad replied: "A lot".

So, looks like fans in Europe are going to get a much longer show.

You know, Bre, the band hardly gets involved with this all. But anyhow at least their management (if any) must check what is going on around the tour, huh?

Or he was talking about the sum total of all the European shows. The question leaves it open to interpretation.

Is there any more info about the booklet? Any pics of the contents?

6" x 9"
26 pages (covers included)
Full Color (b&w images are included)

Photo book that chronicles the Throwing Copper era.
Includes never-before-seen images from concerts & photo sessions.
Also contains images of memorabilia, including alternate album artwork.

Think of this as a companion piece to the Throwing Copper re-release.

edit:
One of my favorite parts of the book is the inclusion of the back LP cover outtake

Thanks! Sounds neat.

Ed shared an article from Billboard. Says that Our Lady Peace plays a 6 song set. Bush plays 12 songs and Live plays 14. Below is the part about Live:

Co-headliners Live kicked off its show with singer Ed Kowalczyk appearing in the crowd singing "Dam at Otter Creek," and though his tenure in the audience would not last as long as Rossdale's, it was equally well-received. The Pennsylvania band – guitarist Chad Taylor, bassist Patrick Dahlheimer and drummer Chad Gracey – was joined by second guitarist Zak Loy and percussionist Robin Diaz, adding nuance to the band's power throughout the set. July 19 will mark the 25th anniversary of Throwing Copper (with a deluxe multi-format reissue via Radioactive/MCA/Ume). As expected, the band focused most of the evening on songs from the release.

Kowalczyk, who looked like a shamanistic Stanley Tucci with his necklace and flowing black shirt, is a roaring tenor who commands the stage with his passion and spirited dancing. Taylor and Dahlheimer, with their facial hair, fedoras and sunglasses, flanked Kowalczyk throughout the night like a modern ZZ Top. They are a tight group and hits like "All Over You," "Shit Towne" and "I Alone" stood out in the set as the members moved around the stage, mugging for the crowd.

Live did make a curious choice by including two cover songs in the set. The first was R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion" – three songs in – which the singer explained was about celebrating their influences. The second, The Stones' "Paint It Black," amped up the excitement with its fast tempo, but both seemed somewhat out of place, though the crowd loved them.

The singer joked, "You're gonna go out and tell all your friends on the Internet that the Alti-mate Tour is fucking awesome, right?" before calling in "White Discussion." He also performed two songs alone, including the uplifting ballad, "Heaven," written for his daughter, which he dedicated "to all the mothers and daughters here tonight."

The band closed with the much-anticipated "Lightning Crashes," which gave rise to an a cappella sing-along with the audience.

Obviously posting late for this guy, but for those who didn't see my post in the AC thread, Bush played 7:55-9:10 and Live played 9:40-10:50. Conceivably Live would play first at the rest of the odd numbered shows. Ticket time was 7:00 so adjust accordingly.

It's also possible they aren't switching the setlist becuase of the video component.

[SecretInsomnia]

Chad T is mixing ‘some new jams’ that were ’recorded from this tour’, he said while streaming on Instagram from the studio. Any idea what that can be?
