TOPIC: 2009 Tour missed Dallas, Texas??

2009 Tour missed Dallas, Texas?? 1 year, 10 months ago #1

We've seen the Aussie Floyd show in the Dallas/Fort Worth,Texas area every year since 2005, but for reasons unknown they didn't schedule a show here in 2009.  A number of emails went unanswered prior to the N. American Tour dates being posted on the Aussie Floyd site, during the posting period, and even after the tour left America.  We were very disappointed not to see our favorite music event of the year.  Every year our group of eight Floydians eagerly await the awesome show they put on, there's really nothing like it that we've ever experienced.  We're just wondering if anyone here knows what might have happened this past year.  Was the tour cut short?  Did they miss your city also?  Also, I send requests to the band every year including last year.  This is, in my opinion, the greatest show on Earth.  Hope to see them soon.........on the Dark Side of the Moon.

???  I was also curious why they didn't stop by Houston last year. I have seen them every year that they came through town and one year I went to San Antonio to catch a second show. I too have e-mailed them about the tour this year but have not heard anything back. I hope they make it through the South this tour. I really need my TAPFS "One Of These Days" fix - LJ01

I was just as upset as you guys when we were passed over in Houston last year. But I'm not ready to write the TAPFS off this year just yet.
I remember in years past, the Houston date didn't pop up on the tour calendar until just before the show. They are usually here around thanksgiving.  "The Wall" show was here early, on October 30th.
Let's give them a little more time and see if they add more tour dates. Maybe we'll get lucky this year..

This year is much different with Roger touring at the same time. Promoters are gun shy of losing their crowds and the potential risk/reward may just be too high in this economy. I wouldn't make any comparisons with this in mind because it's absolutely unique.
The better comparison will be next year, hopefully TBPFS and TAPFS won't try to knock heads by touring at the same time!  :
