But at least it would have been something

Hey I hear you..I had a fantastic seat ticket at Portsmouth and couldn’t make it….real bummer mainly cause I wanted to see the four Jane’s…will never happen now
I doubt L&R are interested in doing a few 1200 capacity venues….basically they just play for the money when they need it… and yes they might sell out clubs in DC, Philly, NYC but that’s not enough to pay for all the stuff you need to tour…and make it worthwhile to them…
The delusion by L&R fanatics on the internet is strong. Many argued Jane’s should have opened for L&R.

Portsmouth was not an option being 200 miles away on a Thursday
My love is not that strong
I was thinking of going to the Atlantic City show...but that date was not an option
but just looked at the setlist and relish the one we got as this one was missing some of the best IMO
I'm not convinced that they couldn't do a US tour of 930 club sized venues and sell out every show
I will say they did get a lot of free press for this tour debacle, maybe that will help
i was looking at their Insta and just about every person commented they only bought tix to see L&R and could care less for JA
just saw this: Ash said that the 2023 tour would be the band's final.
why do people say stuff like that, especially after all those sold out shows

The two previous cycles have underestimated his vote. Definitely nervy.

sadly most of the world things Murphy is Bauhaus and they are just the backup band
I don’t believe that… I think they were ready to do the US tour coming from Europe and took a look at ticket sales and decided sales were too soft and it wasn’t worth it. Then Murphy took the fall by making up the whole rehab story.

I mean they already did that tour of the fillmores and the opener set for Jane’s was only 11 songs and you could have gone to Portsmouth if you are that desperate to see them…
The fact is they don’t have enough of a fanbase to tour every year or even every couple of years….so see them when you can….the Fillmore show was great and will last me a while…
