Floor-standing-tickets ; I would like to offer them to fellow AB-nation-members for a special reduced price. Buy secure from a fellow forum-member !
Interested ? Just send me a PM.
Don't know if this is allowed over here - just let me know if it is not, admins ! Then of course I will make my apologies and will withdraw my offer.
It's wacky to think that I am actually contemplating this. It doesn't seem too expensive to book a five night trip stateside to Amsterdam and get some culture out of this. It's actually less than $1,000.00 for the flight and three night stay. However, due to my laziness where I have not renewed my passport and who knows how long it takes for that to get approved if I start the process now, I shall pass.

It would pretty cool to fly over, practice my Dutch and see AB live. What's your price?

It's 4 tickets, I think resale through Ticketmaster also forces me to keep the package complete.
When serious, through PM only

Passport renewal isn't bad at all. Most of our family got our passports renewed over the last year. Typically ~60 days, even during these challenging times, and with a fee its can be faster. Don't let passport renewal be a roadblock. Drop it in the mail this week and you will have it months ahead of the AB fall tour.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

:yeahthat

Not having a whiteboard pic with ANY song titles is driving me mad! Only one confirmed title and it's the title track. Something's gotta give soon, it's already June!

I wonder what song that Mark's "King" wound up being??

There were what? 4 songs released prior to Walk The Sky? Way too many. It’s always at least 3 nowadays for every major artist it seems. IMO, needs to be 2 max.

Wet the appetite. Not indulge it.

Album art and track listing first. That's what I'm currently looking forward to first, along with juicy deets on some of the songs :D

Would You Rather
Take the Crown
In the Deep
Pay No Mind

Can't remember if Native Son was out before the record or not but I know those ones above were available beforehand.

For a 12-song recommend I would tend to think 2-3 would be the sweet spot.

Those are the 4 I knew were. Native Son and Dying Light were after.

I recall when Addicted To Pain was the lone pre-release for Fortress. One song. With a video. Perfect. Nothing more needed to be released.

Totally agree, a maximum of two would be perfect.

Queensryche, who's album is out the week before Pawns and Kings have said a new song is on it's way soon - so hopefully new AB to follow shortly....

Maybe not for every major artist, as Harry Styles new album only had one song released prior to the album release for example

Styles is a bit different. Teenage girls will buy any old thing he puts out.

Fair enough. However I recommend his 2 latest albums. They’re actually really good and not totally destined to « teenage girls »
