"retiring" it for quite awhile
It may not reach every city, but the original show is already pre-booked in some major market areas through 2012.  The other show is not a stand-alone and they'll sell more tickets with the first going ahead of it than not.  It's just apocalyptic hype to sell more tickets at higher prices.  They've said the same about all the big shows and they're all still touring - somewhere!


It's not how you start, but how you finish... It's not where you're from, but where you're at...
Everybody gets knocked down, how quick  you gonna' get up?
