Del Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 I have a feeling Canada will get skipped for this tour... I'd love to see it come up here, but Trey doesn't exactly have a great track record recently of visiting us... You never know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 The one thing that gives me hope about Trey coming to Canada a bit more is his new manager, Coran Capshaw. He is manager for DMB and he gets them up here almost annually, occasionally for crosss-Canada tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 I think this tour will come to Canada based on this info on http://www.zoomatour.com:"The Zooma Tour will kick off on June 16th and stop at amphitheaters in at least 28 major North American markets...".Toronto is certainly in the top 28 major NA markets, and with strong showings at Ben Harper shows in Toronto in the past I would put good money on the tour stopping here.
