Deftones Confirmed Shows Discussion OLD

[dawg]

Perhaps this doesn't belong on this thread, but the venues for the upcoming European tour seem to have been changed on the official website and I have not a clue why. The same venues are still mentioned on Facebook and anywhere else. Is this old news, am I missing something or can you guys please explain to me why they changed it? I'm a tad confused.

Most if not all of the German shows got moved to a smaller venue.
Guess ticket sales must be really bad...

@dawg Yes, you're right, all the German shows have been relocated. I wonder what's going to happen to Alexandra Palace, since that venue should have a capacity of a whopping 10.250 attendees, but I could be wrong. Oh well, the previous venues already seemed a bit ambitious to me and I strongly prefer seeing them in smaller venues. I feel kind of bad for the guys, though.

they probably still get the money they were promised but the booking agent was a bit to ambitious and will lose some money
big venues in Germany only work for Deftones when they haven't toured in a long time like last year.

In Cologne the Palladium show is changed to E-werk, which is just at the other side of the street.
Deftones played several shows in E-werk, I love the smaller atmosphere ! Nice !
On the other hand, last june they completely sold out Palladium, so dont worry, I don't think sales are that bad.

Deftones is no arena band and (lucky us) never will be!

@dawg @Longstem Thanks for explaining it to me and for reassuring me. I read about this on Deftones' official website when I was taking a break at work and my heart just sank, lol. I attended the show at Palladium last year (one of my best so far) and so I know E-Werk as well. It has an interesting history and it looks cool to me, although Palladium is one of the few larger venues I don't find quite soulless. In my experience, smaller venues might get you a lot closer to the band, so we will see whether I'll live up to my nickname. Either way, I'm super stoked!

So weird no other European summer gig is announced. It's almost summer so I don't expect much of it.
Seems as if they are headlining this festival.

Yeah. Was announced end of December. Looks like it's a one-off European festival headliner. Looking forward to it!

[defmarco]

I will be joining Super Bock! @defsteve You too?

I just bought my VIP-ticket for Saturday at Super Bock Super Rock. I'm excited!  I'm sooo glad it wasn't sold out already, lol. Deftones' energy has been awesome lately and I can't wait to see them again! <3

[defmarco]

Yeah nice one! I also got this VIP ticket. Wonder how close we get to the stage..

Hoping they'll squeeze in a little EU/UK tour while they're there. If they do it'll be a very good surprise; I've noticed they tend to do two years in a row and then a couple of years away until the next album. If they tour next year it'll be three years in a row and I'll be extremely happy!

[defsteve]

Very surprised at European shows next summer. Gore was April 2016 so will be over 2 years on this touring cycle. Wouldn't say no to some additional shows though 

Hoping they get added to Download Madrid (which is a week later).
