Porcupine Tree Album & Tour

[Silver Moon]

Hello,

For those who may not know... Porcupine Tree is releasing a new album in April 2007 entitled: "Fear of a Blank Planet."

There is also a tour scheduled for April as well... Is anyone going?!

Also... I am 99% sure that if they go to the US I will be going!! I can't wait to see the tour dates for the US! (Hopefully!)

Does anyone have any good inklings what cities may be on the PT list?

There are only dates for the UK for the moment. I have a british friend who is going but I don't know exactly where.

I hope the whole european tour is announced soon. They use to play in Madrid, so I really hope they come this year too. They have a good amount of fans here.

Proggrl will know for sure---she is the P-Tree authority!!!!!


I guess you can PM her here or look for her over at MySpace.

OMG! I was reading this and thinking who are the Porcupine Tree and what relation do thay have to this board?

The latter I still dont know but the Band had a nutty song called
Linton Samuel Dawson on the Psychelic psauna album, which me and friends use to listen to a lot, excellent!

Porcupine Tree is one of the projects of Steven Wilson. It was a solo proyect in the beggining, but now they are a complete band and Richard Barbieri plays keyboards with them!!!

Well as Poisoned Apathy stated, the US dates aren't announced yet, but the real authoritative word has it that they should be here the last weeks of May into June. I'll be sure to check back here and post them once I know.

Oh and you can betcher ass I'll be to as many as I can go. I'm talking Road trip Kera, Krausy and anyone else if you're up for it!!

Cheers!

OK not great news and quite spread out, but still they'll be here and most likely back again for a second leg in the fall (with POSSIBLY some southern dates, but nothing definite).

Looks like I will be praying for Fall dates as well.

It seems as tho there's a good chance that they'll play in the south come fall, so hopefully you'll be in luck!
