That is an extremely optimistic tour schedule.

That is an extremely optimistic tour schedule. My thoughts exactly. If I were a betting man, I think I'd place some bets that many of these never happen.

I have tickets for April 7 in Hershey PA, which was re-scheduled from last year's cancelled show due to the pandemic. My buddy is "handling" the tickets/logistics; I'll have to get him on this. It's only a month away now.

I notice they are in Mankato, MN, in August. That's about 90 minutes from me, and is a small city I'm familiar with. (A college town of probably 40k people or so, it was the "big town" nearest my tiny little rural town growing up.) I've never actually seen the Beach Boys, so I might make that trip.

Looks like as of now they aren't coming anywhere near Cincinnati. The nearest show is about 3 hours away in Ft. Wayne. I'd definitely say the shows well into the summer won't be at full capacity, so it'll be interesting to see what happens.

No Maryland shows either. We do have a fairgrounds in Frederick County, which was hosted a couple drive in style concerts. It's just been announced that KIX will be playing there in May.
But, considering there are still restrictions, and we're still fairly early in getting people vaccinated, I expect a lot of tour cancellations or postponements to be announced in the next month or two .

Given the latest UK reopening protocols, those UK dates are in question.

And, the M3 Festival in Columbia, MD, which was originally scheduled for last year, and rescheduled for this year in early May has just been postponed. So....here we go.

Well, that didn't take long.

Well, that didn't take long. I thought/think it's kind of strange that they posted all of those dates to begin with. I guess we (the people who already bought the tickets) are supposed to take it upon ourselves to do the investigation as to whether the dates are on...or not. Azoff/Iconic? The more things change, the more they stay the same...

I noticed the touring page is now updated and all of the listings now say "touring venue" / MIKE LOVE. Another minor, but noteworthy change.

I haven't been hearing about ANY live shows here in Washington state. Just as well, I'm busy with family matters right now.

I'd probably not put this on Azoff, but it just seems irresponsible to post such an extensive tour schedule when there are still so many restrictions on live events.

One of the factors in play here is the venues themselves. When the dates started getting postponed in 2020, a lot of these places rebooked shows for one year later, thinking the pandemic would be resolved by then. But it turns out that was over-optimistic, and now they're rescheduling those dates again.
For example, I have tickets for one show (non BB) that was originally set for May 2020, rescheduled to May 2021, and has now been moved to the fall.
