So, will TP & the Heartbreakers tour again?

Post by BuddyDog »

I know he went back to the start by getting Mudcrutch going again, but I was wondering if they are going to go on tour again?

I think they did a tour last year, but I thought there was an interview somewhere where he said they are tired of playing concerts.

If that's the case, why would they charge $40 to join their fan club?

With TP about to hit 60, I think he's getting tired of touring and feels if he's older than 60, he'll look as silly as the Stones.

I'd settle for a new album.

I'd go see him even if he was 65! I just saw McCartney last week and that man is 67 years old and put on one of the best rock shows I've seen in 20 years. Age is just a number, man.

I remember Tom saying something about how he would keep going until Mike and Benmont wanted to stop. Maybe one of them wants to stop and not Tom.

That being said, I want a new album.

I thought I read somewhere that they felt like they were still writing some of their best stuff. Maybe the future tours will be short like the last one. I mean, a summer tour every few years isn't too bad is it?

I, for one, certainly hope they tour again. Because the show they put on is superb. They don't d*ck around. They get up and play music. And just seeing Mike & Tom's Rolling Guitar Museum is damn near worth the price of admissions. Though I doubt I'd go to another concert. We caught the '08 in Cincy and the cost was high. Very high! Even after popping for the Heartbreakers Fan Club choice seating and discounts.

And while I love the *live* music of TPaTH, I'd really love to see them hit the studio and bring out an all new set of incredible tunes to blow me away!
