I am not looking to start any rumors, so let me clarify that this is 100% guessing and speculation.
BNL's tour launches 10/20. World Container drops 10/17. BNL play huge shows in the US (at least compared to TTH) and love to bring out support acts that have small followings in the US (Guster in 2000, Howie Day in 2004, etc).
BNL stops here in Salt Lake City on 11/22, the day before US Thanksgiving. My bro was kind enough to buy me tickets, even after I told him repeatedly I could not go because I did not want to find a babysitter for my three kids for Thanksgiving Eve. Then it dawned on me - if there is ANY chance whatsoever that TTH will be touring in support of BNL, that changes EVERYTHING. It wouldn't be that big a suprise if you really think about it. Maybe the label really wants them to reach some large US audiences to try and create their long-delayed "US breakthrough." I'm not gonna say a word about Bob Rock and his penchant for making superstars out of bands.
So....to MAv and anyone else in the know - is this anywhere within the realm of possibility??
