but in all seriousness, let’s make this interesting. I’m calling an abbreviated tour starting in
August or
September of this year given the information we have as of right now. Anyone want to take me up on a little bet?
If I’m right, you donate $75 to the Patricia Allen Fund which benefits a local children’s hospital:
https://www.ochbuffalo.org/foundation/donate/ (we became well-acquainted with this hospital when our 2nd son was an infant, and they were amazing).
If I’m wrong (including if I got the starting month wrong), I’ll donate $75 to a charity of your choice.
Caveat: the first show that the full band plays has to be counted in the “2021 Summer” tour in DMBAlmanac in order for it to be considered the “start” of that tour. So, a full-band mini warmup show in late May in some studio (probably) wouldn’t count as the start of the tour if they don’t play again until late August. Neither would a D&T show.
