 | So we could call it "The Paul - in Austria without Bodo - Tour."
And the estimated venue should be 5.999 to 7.999. |

| I can´t believe this - "Eisenstadt" sounds like a joke for 1st of April! Anyway, it this is true I am glad that I have not yet bought the ticktes for Germany. |

 | Great news - I expect there will be other dates announced to fill the gap between 9th and 17th July. Hopefully he´ll do some more countries - so far it is only Ireland, UK, Switzerland, Austria and Germany. |

 | Paul will be in Iceland 1. July. I wonder who will be in the band this summer. |

| Nope, never before. And this will take place in a pretty small venue too, maybe about 5000 people. |

| I really pity you, Bodo. You really picked the wrong time to go on holidays. |

| It is near Vienna.
And - he is really playing strange places IMO... he should not think too much if the places are not sold out :)
They said they expect 6000-8000 people in Eisenstadt, but hey, the last time he played in MUNICH only 6000 came...

| That`s true, Bodo, I hope, he will at least do more advertising than in 2002, without a new album in both cases.
The biggest sceduling messup would be if he goes to South America in August, where he hasn`t been in a long time... |

| A lot of the dates are Festivals, so there should be more promotion than normal. I still wonder about the Eisenstadt Gig. There are three different promoters who work together for the first time and it is the first time, that the location (a castle) will be a location for a concert.
The problem is, that PS might not draw that much attention here in Austria and they might be disappointed by the attendance. Anyway - it is perfect for me because I can drive there easily and be back the same night. And the location should be very nice, too. |

| The UK dates will sell out. Last time he came to the UK in 2006, he played several 10,000+ seater arenas and I believe they were all sold out very quickly despite minimal promotion. |
